Mortimer & Whitehouse Gone Fishing


Just watched it, absolutely tremendous.

It really just goes to show that you don't need some half wit, nutcase or airhead z list celebrity or member of the public to make a 'reality show' entertaining.

These two are fairly understated most of the time during this, well maybe not Bob :D, and they provide immaculate entertainment.
 
Brilliant show, every episode is an absolute gem

Bob is a top bloke, proper proud of his roots too.

Anywhere else get a bit emotional on the odd moment? it touches some big topics in a very understated way

Its one of the best things on terrestrial for years.

Are they doing any more series?
Chris Rea man, proper strong accent

I bet there's some great outtakes to be seen, canny advert for the NE as well ( most people won't realise they spent most of the time in Yorkshire )

poor Chris didn't look well did he ?

He didn’t. What’s the SMB consensus on his barnet? Syrup or extra strong ‘Just for Men’?

almost certain a new series has been commissioned
 
I like it very much. I wasn't a fan of The Trip. I suspect both of those two actors have massive egos and they got in the way a bit. I don't sense that with Whitehouse and Mortimer, which is part of the charm of the series.

I suppose fishing either does it for you or doesn't. I know there was more action but Robson Green's series was show after show of him yucking a line in then shouting "Howay man... I've got a bite like" but it has proved incredibly popular.

Jeremy Wade was far better than Robson Green.

So many touching moments in lastnights but for me the simple ‘Bye Mum’ as he walked away from his childhood home was so poignant
