    Bob is one of those golden characters who you hang onto every word they say. I don't think this is an 'act' as such, he genuinly is in a world of his own. When he does 'Would I lie to you' it is impossible to tell when he is lying as his true stories are beyond rediculous anyway. An absolute legend who reduces me to tears of laughter, one of the funniest men ever.

    Fun fact, the thing Bob is using at 3:09 is a piece of equipment he had to use after his heart operation. He hated it as he couldn't go out until he reached a certain target, his entire life revolved around it for a while. If you haven't read his autobiography I highly recommend it to anyone who loves Bob.

    I love him with Paul Whitehouse in that fishing programme - I think the fishing is incidental to the show its just listening to them chatting is an antidote to just about anything.

    He's just a delight. Even his episode on Desert Island Discs was a hoot.

    As a German I am heavily confused by Bob’s superior English. We don’t learn that at school, greetings from Berlin Germany 🇩🇪
