CrinklyCraggy · 04/02/2022 12:41

Is one of my favourite things in the whole wide world.

Is there a way to find out which episodes he's in?

I don't know, try imdb maybe?
I agree he is fabulous on it.Grin

nicesausages · 04/02/2022 12:44

Big fan here too!

Oneearringlost · 04/02/2022 12:44

You can search You Tube and find "Would I Lie to You" Bob Mortimer clips.
I agree.
He makes everything OK with the world, doesn't he?

hugoagogo · 04/02/2022 12:45

here you go

I also tune into the fishing show he is on with Paul Whitehouse. I never thought I'd enjoy a fishing show but Bob has sold it to me.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Would_I_Lie_to_You%3F_episodes

Use your phone or computers way of "find/search" (usually ctrl and f on Windows once you're over the episode guide part (might need the arrow on the left clicking down if in phone) On chrome for android it's clicking on the three circles top right and choosing "find on page" and put Bob mortimer in the little window that comes up and it should find them. There's 10 from 2012 onwards.

They should be online in places like YouTube etc once you know the episode number to google Failing that, YouTube "Bob mortimer wilty" or "Bob mortimer would I lie to you" and it should bring up the clips.

I love the Gone Fishing series, Mortimer and Whitehouse on BBC. They are amazing together.

I never thought I'd watch a fishing programme but it's so much more than that isn't it!

I love bob Mortimer on would I lie to you his stories are ridiculously bizarre and always end up true my kids who had never heard of him also love when he's on.

Fishing programme is great perfect Sunday escapism viewing

Sparticle · 04/02/2022 13:59

All the clips of him telling his tall stories are in compilcations on YouTube. I watch them regularly when I need a laugh.

Enjoy!

mrswhiplington · 04/02/2022 14:06

Absolutely love the fishing show. They are so funny together. Also enjoy Would I Lie To You. Great telly.

Dogmatix34 · 04/02/2022 18:44

His book is great- I finished it in 2 days. Such a lovely man, lots of stories akin to his WILTY stories

waterlego · 04/02/2022 18:48

He’s very funny. I think my favourite story was when he claimed Chris Rea had once run him a bath and cracked an egg into it. 😂

Yes!! I think it wasn't true? But he managed to persuade you it could be Grin

I'm going to settle down with a bottle of wine and those You Tube compilations tonight. I haven't been this excited about a planned evening in ages Grin Thank you!

He’s brilliant, isn’t he Grin Have a watch of him and Paul Whitehouse (and Ted the dog) on their fishing program too, it’s fab. I have a serious crush on Mr Mortimer.

Absolutely love that episode. Watch WILTY over and over. Especially Bob Mortimer ones. Never gets boring x

That’s right. It wasn’t true but it somehow seemed plausible. Especially when you consider that the story about him doing his own dental work turned out to be true. The Chris Rea egg bath story seemed totally believeable compared to that!

waterlego · 04/02/2022 19:28

I mean, I still can’t really believe the dentistry one. Sometimes I think everything he says is a fib or massive exaggeration. Grin

I've just watched the dentistry one Shock

I'd never noticed what a good looking chap he is too Grin

Loved Bob for years, ever since I learned he represented Jarvis cocker when he was carted off from the Brit awards for mooning when Michael Jackson was performing. Bob Mortimer hot, funny, sensitive & a qualified solicitor to boot 😁

SanFranBear · 04/02/2022 20:37

Thank you so much Sparticle... just watched them both! I've had a crush on Bob Mortimer since forever and he has still got it... in spades!

insancerre · 04/02/2022 20:41

He is a national treasure
I just love him

WellThatsATurnipForTheBooks · 04/02/2022 20:45

I love him too, even in the fishing programme when I have zero interest in fishing

Back in the day I loved Vic 'n Bob but now, when I see Vic Reeves in anything, he's just so cringey, but Bob is so lovely and still so funny.

Tomeeornottomee · 04/02/2022 20:56

It doesn’t matter how random or weird his stories are... they’re always true 😂😂😂
