Did you like him when he was a sleazeball on Shooting stars when he was making disgusting sexist comments to women on the show. Yuck

Yawn

cafenoirbiscuit · 28/11/2025 08:58

i loved him even more when I read his autobiography
he seems very genuine and humble

vickylou78 · 28/11/2025 09:10

Don't find him sexy but I absolutely adore Bob!! He's brilliant and so warm and naturally funny. Love gone fishing!

ScouserInExiIe · 28/11/2025 09:16

Don't mind him (or Vic) but... not from a desirability perspective. For me, that'd be their fellow North Easterner, Ross Noble 😳

Thepeopleversuswork · 28/11/2025 09:20

Not sure about desirable but he is just very naturally funny: makes me laugh before he's even opened his mouth. And comes across as quite gentle and diffident, which doesn't often go with that territory.

thesugarbumfairy · 28/11/2025 09:30

God no I don't find him in the least bit sexy. He's more like my dad. But he is hilarious. I saw him and Richard Ayoade doing a 'talk' recently about his (well both of their) new books and obviously it wasn't a comedy show - it was supposed to be a book talk - but they had the audience in stitches for the entire time. I rarely laugh out loud at stuff. Unless its those two.

RowersDelight · 28/11/2025 09:36

I don’t fancy him but I think he is one of the funniest people ever. His stories on WILTY are brilliant.

I hope he is fully recovered now from his shingles as he still seems to be recovering on the current Gone Fishing series. Take care Bob!

Minjou · 28/11/2025 09:39

What about when he takes his teeth out though?

Ohwhatfuckeryitistoride · 28/11/2025 09:40

Hi SIL! 😁👋👋👋

LittlePotteryBird · 28/11/2025 09:45

I love Bob and I used to fancy him until he featured in an explicit dream of mine in which he had extremely smelly feet. Now when I see him on telly and start to think he’s sexy a little voice says ‘yeah but his feet stink’.

I fancy Vic Reeves more tbh

I’d have them both. At the same time 😂

MyCatLovesCardboard · 28/11/2025 09:50

DH and I love Bob. He should get a knighthood as he’s a national treasure.

surreygirly · 28/11/2025 09:51

No way#
And totally unfunny

pandora206 · 28/11/2025 09:52

His books are hilarious. Just listening to him reading the third one on Audible at the moment.

MrsMurphyIWish · 28/11/2025 09:56

No but he is hilarious. When I watched him on “last one laughing” I had tears rolling at some points. I would love to go out for a drink with him!

MrsMurphyIWish · 28/11/2025 09:58

BlueEyedBogWitch · 28/11/2025 08:17

Hot Bob.

His son is the spitting image of him.

When I saw Ross Noble live I laughed so much I couldn’t breathe. Still recommend it though 😂 Every time he looked down he said “ah man - can’t believe I forgot to bring my good jeans” like it really made any difference to us!

Yep. I don’t get the adoration from younger comedians it’s baffling

Their Travel Man trip to Hamburg is great.

CaptainCarrotsBigSword · 28/11/2025 10:12

I have emailed him a few times (work related, my work not his, not showbiz at all) and he is really nice. Always pays his bill on time, and he does it himself not a PA or anything.

sexlesshusbandwoes · 28/11/2025 10:13

I’ve always had a crush on Bob he’s brilliant

NettleTea · 28/11/2025 10:16

yes, dont find him attractive as much as Id love to be his mate and pop round for an evening of merriment.
Id love to join the gossip club, which apparently consists of him,, Matt Berry and Reece Shearsmith (and thats who I do find extremely attractive) where they share the T and discuss who is 'at the top table'. I imagine Reece does some of his magic too.
