excellent documentary. Had Bob not gone to the pub that night and seen Vic larking about, how different would life be? They've made me laugh for decades. A truly great comic duo. Thanks for this upload.
Sting narrated this, brilliant. And at 3:50 when Vic says "your making it not work looking at me".. he's wording such a typical argument that kids would have when things aren't going their way lol great stuff
This popped up after watching a few episodes of Paul n bobs gone fishing 🎣 I love these guys I was in my early teens when their first show hit TV and they had a real unique style of comedy for the time nobody was so abstract apart from the fast show and Harry Enfield wasn't as abstract, anyway Vic Bob Harry n Paul got me through some really difficult times, depression and broken heart through my teens into my 20s so I have a lot of respect for them just helping make life have laughter ❤
Thanks for sharing this! This disappeared from youtube recently and I was v disappointed! Its now in HD too and the quality was awful last time, like an old VHS lol - thank you so much!!
The way I see it, if you’re going to upload old recordings, why not make them the best quality you can? No one likes poorly done uploads - what’s the point? And yes, it’s a fantastic documentary that’s stayed with me from the first day I saw it. I’m glad you appreciate it, too!
I'm glad Mark said it because I had the exact same thought while watching Shooting Stars a bit ago, "This is just a sketch that Vic and Bob turned into a game show.". You ask me, that *is* genius.
Saw this originally, never since until now. I always remembered Matt Lucas saying you shouldn't analyse comedy. (A) I always thought it was The South Bank Show, and (B) 27 YEARS AGO??? There are top footballers now who weren't even born 27yrs ago. Where has time gone?
I didn't realise til just now that Mark Lamarr and Matt Lucas went so far back with these two and I also didn't know that Bob was such a chain smoker or that he once had hair.
That was the thing with Vic and Bob, even when what they said wasn't funny, it was usually so cringe that you still had to laugh at it, you could see them look at each other and realise that the line or joke wasn't funny and that would make them laugh, just knowing they'd messed up, they didn't care, they laughed anyway and carried on and so did we. It was weird and the 90s was a weird time.
He’s nauseating isn’t he? Like a piece of persistent clinker. His entire career is sycophantic sucking up to anyone with actual talent or coming into fashion and then claiming “I saw them first.”
I know what you mean, they are an acquired taste. I loved shooting stars and parts of the smell of reeves and mortimer. But the big night out I just did not find that funny and i have broad sense of humour that takes in python , black books, father Ted and black books and the it crowd. The fast show.

Mr. Wilkinson, with this high quality comedy show, presented in the finest quality, you are really spoiling us.

Thanks for this. I've loved Vic and Bob since I was a young teen. Their humour's right up my street! And Bob was gorgeous 😁
Was?
Well, yes he still is! 😊
Thanks Bob you cheeky so and so.

Thanks for posting this, made my night.
Thanks for the upload. This is my first encounter with this. Absolutely marvellous !
Glad you enjoyed it!
"When a baby does * that *, they're trying to reverse time."
"They generally give up after about six months"

I think, to Vic and Bob but to Vic in particular, it and everything they do together is An Art. Every episode a little art installation.
Initially, it was a one off for comic relief.
@@samuelgarrod8327 That makes sense.
Thanks for uploading. Enjoyed that.
Jim was what we needed but Bob is now
Fantastic. And the concrete radar locations turned up again on Jim's episode of Walking last year
wondered what that was ,looked like a massive crucible
The sound mirrors of Denge...
Great share, cheers.
The lighthouse incident is classic 😂
Like wtf was she doing 😂😂😂
Watched this originally on BBC when it came out, outstanding!

Almost all footballers under the age of 27 weren’t born 27 years ago
Brilliant.Thanks for posting. Hilarious.
Another gem, Mr. Wilkinson. Ta.👍

Narrated by Mr Sting from the massive house with the massive gates and the massive guard dogs
Riiiiiiiight.

The brass hand still going strong…
You can’t bring a baby into a lighthouse, if the baby has been on the booze
Kudos to Jonathan Ross!
Before Bob lost his hand in an industrial accident and had it replaced with a fully mechanical brass version.
Nice that Charlie got dressed up
13:12 Anyone know the name of her? So gorgeous.
The staff at Dungeness Lighthouse don't come out well.
Dungeness Pepperpot.
was trying to work out who was narrating this ... came up at the end "sting". 🙂
I loved them so much , I once went to a hero's and villains party dressed as 'fob Vic' and no one knew who the fucdk I was🤣
I love the way Jim Davidson
Who's the guy next to Jim at 11:30? Reminds me of Kinky John Fowler a bit...
I accidently shat in one of my own boots.
looks like Frank Carson, but can't be sure
The 90s. The last great vault of truly brilliant comedy
Brilliant Comedy!
24:15 curly haired bloke summed them up really.
Jim Davidson really exposed himself in this film. Not in a good way..
What're yer sayin', like?
Oh, absolute bollocks...!!!
He compared them to Morecombe & Wise, so what are you saying?
@@ignoblesurfer6281 I know!!
@@ignoblesurfer6281 ye don’t spose he’s been looking at our bras?
What was wrong with the lighthouse people?
"We'll have no comedy here, thank you"
Who is the brunette behind James Brown? She's stunning.
Is this narrated by Sting??
Mr Sting.
Is that Sting narrating?
I think it is. We know he's a big fan (Stotts etc)
And perhaps (?) Paul Morley doing the interviews.
It could Bee 🐝
Jim Davidson hahaha Jesus Christ
They had him on so they could show him to be a comedy zero 36:25
It was Terry's brother.
👍
Have you got a full episode of Big breakfast 13th dec 2000 please thank you very much
All well and good until Davidson pops his ginger face up 🤦🏻♂️
very very funny my style of comedy
😂😂😂
The cockroach king!
I'm so glad Jim Davidson is no longer relevant in comedy. The world has moved on, he hasn't
Only person who spoils this is Jonathan Ross.
Really? Not Jim Davidson?
Ross gave these guys their first break, kind of discovered them
His comment about Bob being an undiscovered well was accurate
He’s nauseating isn’t he? Like a piece of persistent clinker. His entire career is sycophantic sucking up to anyone with actual talent or coming into fashion and then claiming “I saw them first.”
Great stuff, before Bob was carrying Vic .
I never found these two remotely funny, although Bob on WILTY makes me weep laughing. Go figure.
I know what you mean, they are an acquired taste. I loved shooting stars and parts of the smell of reeves and mortimer. But the big night out I just did not find that funny and i have broad sense of humour that takes in python
, black books, father Ted and black books and the it crowd. The fast show.
@@markdaly1648You named three series written by the same people. That's not a broad taste.😂
Bobs such a spanner int he , just adorable
