The bloody hat is impossible to find.
It's a Stetson but is sold out world bloody wide lol.
A8 L Diesel.
Also has issues with tyre wear.
Did we see tonight's? Excellent discussion of men's issues. Some of which I've been through lately, good to hear it put out there in the open 🙂
I feel a bit bereft now the series is finished.
Aye, best thing on cooncil telly.
Properly touching end. Has been a beautiful watch. Reminds me a bit of the Repair Shop, slow paced, enthusiastic skills being the backdrop to more emotional stories.
Wonderful TV and a brilliant end to the series.
Such a beautiful thing this. Sad the series is over. Hopefully they do more.
Loved this series, even my wife was sad it had ended!
MrsMC only watched the last one and just said "that was lovely", so high praise from her. Even my 17 year old lad will put his phone down to watch it - partly cos of some of the places they've stayed in
Binged watched the first 1.5 series over the weekend after spotting this thread last week.
Its BRILLIAAAAANT!!!!
I cant remember the last time I cried with laughter but the Neapolitan ice cream scene is series 1 was the funniest thing.
Watched the lot over the last few weeks
By christ mortimer is rubbish ay fishing
Which is offset by pauls love of the outdoors, the gish and the camaraderie he shared with Bob
The accommodation is different and adds an interest to the program
By christ mortimer is rubbish at fishing
It'd be dull as **** if they were both good at it!
just finished the lot, perfect telly, havent enjoyed a series as much as that for a long time, lovely.
I cant believe I have been missing this show. I started on series 1 a few days ago and I think its brilliant tv, some very funny moments and conversations going on.
I have been looking for something light and entertaining to watch, sick of all the murder, violent and negative shows that I sometimes have to sit through!
I am glad I have found the show, lovely to watch and very enjoyable! 🙂
I totally gave this a miss as not a fan of Paul Whitehouse, but caught the last ten minutes of one a week or two back and thought.... This is actually great TV. 🙂
One of my favourite bits of the series was when the chicken got involved in the card reading.
Yup , same here I devoured all 3 series in a few days. Absolutely beautiful TV , funny and melancholy at the same time. Lovely little touches with the drone shots and soundtrack . They bounce of each other so well , Bob seems very honest about his depression . Top quality TV and a joy to watch compared to the endless junk TV and dreary Covid news.

...and away,,
First two episodes of series one done - just lovely, lovely telly. Anyone know where they're staying in episode two?
Only recognised one place, which was Sheringham. Parents used to take us on holiday there sometime. Saw the sign for Beeston where my dad would take us for a game of pitch and putt. Then we'd fall out.😀
One hour Christmas Special incoming 🙂
Was hoping for news of more.
xmas special sounds great, am hoping for series 4 too
Best Christmas news I've heard so far. 🙂
Series 4 is already confirmed;

That's awesome. Cheers
👍
Ooo, brilliant - thanks for sharing! 😀
Well that's timely. I was trying to identify some music from an episode and Google isn't helping. All the music is listed on the website. STW comes up trumps again.
Cheers Fettlin!
Been watching this over the break....
Great show. Easy going. Perfect hangover telly.
I used to fish lots when I lived in the UK. Generally once or twice a week.
I used to often fish at Bentley Lakes (S2E2). Caught many a fish there. Weren't allowed to night fish, though.
Their accommodation was miles from where they were fishing....
My wife has just given me Bob’s Stetson Pork Pie hat for valentines. Very happy but, not being a hat wearer, I’m going to have to build up my confidence before wearing it outside!

She's a keeper.
You’ve just got to introduce the hat a little bit at a time.
You two have just made my wife’s day!
I felt like this series was nowhere near as good as the previous ones. Like they’d run out of ideas and even things to talk about.
Bob was on Off Menu. Best one yet.

I'm enjoying this one still, but I think they might run the risk of flogging it a series too far
Has anyone tried to make crisp mash yet?

I enjoyed all the previous ones but have only watched the first episode of this series and found myself cringing for the most part.
I'm enjoying their new YouTube channel.
but I think they might run the risk of flogging it a series too far
Agreed - although episode 3 in the Lakes was excellent.

They have in my opinion. Have watched them all but they have either lost something or are just too much more of the same. They really should not do another series.
Literally love these two, my partner laughs that I like it so much as it’s just chill out telly about a sport I don’t do. But for me just the humour wins it. One episode at the coast where he joked about there being internet and having to ring (in his posh voice) “excuse me can you connect me to the internet” , had me in stitches!
Nope, not a series too far, still just lovely.
Good episode to finish on, dispelled my doubts. Maybe adding a guest is the way forward, the Chris Rea episode in the last (?) series was fantastic.
Series 5 starts Fri 9th Sep on BBC2. Hope Ted's back!
Ace, thanks for the shout! 🙂
Yay.
Ted was featured in Twitter posts so appearances are likely.
Thank ****, something to finally look forward to
Hurrah!
Yay hurrah and sweet. Probably one of the most relatable and enjoyable tellybox things ever made.
😀 yay. Tried to sky+ it so I don’t miss it but there seems to be cricket on despite the listing saying it’s gone fishing? Hmmm.
Excellent news!
If you haven’t read, ‘And Away’ by Bob, you should!
I have a spare copy of Bobs book if anyone wants it for the price of postage? It's a good read.
I am, will msg you. And make a donation to BHF as well as postage, seeing as it was heart trouble that brought this odd couple together.
Great TV, as ever.
95cm
101! Jeez
Getting a bit close for comfort there! I honestly thought I’d be less than 90 myself. Clearly I’ve been in denial… riding isn’t cutting through… might need to dig out the running shoes.
97cm
Need to drink less beer !
108cm and I’m a skinny git 😩
I don't need to measure (darent either) to know I need to #bemoreBob
As always was a nice bit of relaxing viewing on the sofa after my ride this afternoon.
108cm and I’m a skinny git 😩
108 little centimeters beg to differ on the skinny bit
I keep forgetting about them and having just watched that episode I'm decidedly chilled...
A nice watch as always, makes a good change from the Queen/Ukraine/energy prices etc.
and 101!!!
everyone should #bemoreBob
He's like the indie national treasure, I don't know how many from the mainstream watch him (maybe more now because of WILTY, etc.) but to those that know, he's just delightful.
Loved it as always but where was Ted? Not even cameo appearance!
Ted's not in every episode. It's not even their dog!
This and Ghosts are just the best TV
103 - is this a serious way of testing though??
My tape measure needs re-calibrating. It's a bit out! 🙂
is this a serious way of testing though??
No, just a fun thought provoker. Like the show.
Lovely soothing watch
102. Could do better
This and Ghosts are just the best TV
And Detectorists
Love it! Definitely #bemoreBob!
I've never done it but watching them makes me want to try fly fishing.
Ted has his own Instagram account. How he posts stuff with those little paws is a mystery.
