Myself and a mate went to a fancy dress party on a boat as the Pan Fighters, nobody got it that time either.......but then it was a Caribbean cruise theme.
I worked on a neonatal surgery ward when this was on so "Have you got any booze fot baby?" was one of our favourite lines. I particularly love their "Food and Booze" parody of the Food and Drink show.
Ironically Mr Sting sounds very much like the Stotts these days whilst playing his lute in his massive house with his massive trees and his massive space plasma car.
OMG!! I forgot how funny this was!! My face hurts from laughing with tears.... little tommy squeaker LMAO!! Thanks teamcream, you cheered me right up !!
I always think Bob Mortimer was the funnier of the two and especially so when they did the Stotts. Still laugh out loud stuff even after all these years.
I couldn't agree more, although without Vic would there have been Bob? Apparently it was only seeing Vic on stage that gave Bob the idea that it was possible.
@@Mud_eater ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZDwdHx_J64c.htmlfeature=shared An old Omnibus. They interview his old boss, a solicitor. Bob has said he was a solicitor on numerous occasions. Why would he lie about something so easiliy corroborated? Maybe it's one of his ridiculously tall tales? Maybe he started the urban myth that him being a solicitor is itself an urban myth? I know his niece, and in conversation with her she never suggested it wasn't true. Not concrete evidence of course, but two law degrees, an old boss on film talking about his career in law, numerous interviews where he doesn't trip over a lie. It all points to him as being a solicitor, or certainly qualified and working in law.
The Stotts are based on 2 Middlesbrough fans. I remember them from Ayresome park and the The Riverside. Bob is a big Boro fan. Vic and Bob have the accents to a 't'. Both lads were right charactsrs.
If you get a chance, listen to Bob's impression of Sting on Athletico Mince. It's on a bit called Geordie Heat and he does a similar high-pitched voice. Sting basically rings the Newcastle police and makes unreasonable demands, saying things like "Trudy's gone into town in the high-powered sports car". It's funny as f***
@Ollie Clixby haha. He needs to get himself into eggs, a dozen a day. Boiled, fried and poached. But if they're poachies they better be very fuckin runny, haha
Guys, I said it was from Smell Of for a reason. It is from Smell Of. It's not from Bang Bang. Bang Bang had 6 episodes, and they interviewed Sinead O'Connor, Damon Hill, Caprice, Michael Winner, Nick Ross, and Paul McKenna. Those were the Bang Bang interviews.
Just to clear it up, this is from The Smell Of but they carried the same interview format through to Bang Bang where the Stotts interviewed people like Damon Hill and Caprice.
Love reeves and mortimer, loved bang bang, loved smell of, loved big night, yada yada yadai just fucking love this interview. makes me split me sides all the time.
The Stotts have been around since Big Night Out, but this is definitely Smell Of. I used to have it on VHS, I could tell you the episode if my memory wasn't so awful :/
how cud anyone who is a reeves and mortimer fan think this is from Bang Bang? you should know and for gods sake the credits come up at the end of the video and it says the smell of reeves and mortimer
I'd love to know how this actually happened. Like, how do you go to a BBC exec and say "We'd quite like to get one of the biggest rock stars in the world at the moment on our show, and ask them about farting" and then get them to say "Yes"?
I was sure there was a question about doing "a nice relaxing poo" but it's not here. Maybe it was a different Stotts interview or there's a different edit
at the time, it was a big shock that it really was sting. as they would pretend (deliberately badly) to be celebrities all the time, and hadn't had any guests on before.
