Saw an interview the one day, Jim saying he was going to retire the Vic Reeves character. Very sad. But when they asked him what he was going to do next he just said 'nuffink', and the phone went dahn!
Love it...This had to be improvised! You can tell Vics trying anything to get Bob to smirk and cry with laughter. Like Peter Cook often did to Dudley Moore
Sad thing is Vic (Jim Moir) has recently said that the feature film he and Bob are currently working on 'The Glove ' will probably be the last thing he will do as Vic Reeves. If this turns out to be true i will be very sad, but i have plenty to look back at with him and Bob producing brilliant comedy for over 3 decades!!!
Which book? May I purchase a copy, I love books about Bobs or Jims, even more fond of books about both, please shoot an email to my mother and she will arrange the exchange from there. Thanks a lot
They make it look as though it's off the cuff but it's so, so intelligent - everything they say and how they say it, talk over each other in the right way, etc. Brilliant.
Just brilliant......remembering when we laughed more, has anyone an idea on the clip " Gary Barlow said this and Jason Orange said that" Been looking out for that one for ages
Back in the day they must have just left them in the show, I remember a few, one that stands out in my memory is when Vic's tache fell off when they were just sittin' on the dock of the bay watching the ships coming in and going back out again.
@@legendarycheekymonkey haha i remember them watching the ships come in, then go out again. do you remember geordie jumpers? and matt lucas trying to buy a caravan off of bob? haha it's just everyone laughing. i have no idea how bbc 2 let them air anything😂 I'm 37 now, vic n bob are my childhood.
@@mowvu5380 I think the BBC just knew how loved they were and trusted that people would like it, how right they were! I discovered them when I was about 13 or 14, I'm 42 now and I have always watched anything and everything they have done and I regularly go on RU-vid binges to see if there's anything I've missed. Little mission for you, see if you can find the Children in Need sketch they did with Dynamo the magician. Pure gold.
@@legendarycheekymonkey haha memories for sure. my old man always had vic n bob on, we loved em. i just watched the children in need thing haha, i didn't remember it at all so thanks pal. i stopped watching tv around 2010. i keep up to date with coogan and any new vic n bob of course.
@@mowvu5380 I think it's the least well known sketch they've done as not many people know about it when I'm talking Vic and Bob at any opportunity! I only knew about it from trawling RU-vid but I was bad laughing when I found it. Sadly there won't be much new material from Vic and Bob as Vic has retired through illness now but I think they are working on one final project, a movie called The Glove. But I think Bob will carry on doing panel shows and maybe the fishing show. Coogan has still got plenty left in him and I'm sure there will be more Partridge stuff in future, "in off the red." Aha!
if you're beyond your late 30s+ its 'the bloke you know quality' you'd wanna have a pint with these locals in the kind of pubs they don't make anymore.
I am very lucky, I can laugh at this , Morecambe and Wise, The two Ronnies, Monty Python , Alan Partridge , Frankie Boyle , Police squad, I have started laughing out loud at Frasier even the Big bang theory. Comedy is my life blood.
jim moir seems like he's a bit of a boring bastrd away from the cameras. bob is just funny in and out. the only time vic has made me laugh on his own away from bob is when he asked gordon ramsay to cut a hole in a piece of toast and put a fried egg in the hole. haha ramsay went ape sh1t. think it was a celebrity cooking restaurant show lol
