@@eliasripley2357 Yes, he gives the narrative enough space to happen around him. He's quite good looking, too! (Vic is, as well, but Bob really cleans up well in Catterick!)
@@JuliaBrown-te9dp Agreed 100%! I think Bob is such a cutie here. He may not be classically handsome, but he has a certain charm about him. Seems a sweetie, tbh.
The part with Tony singing Morrisey is so good. Just remembered the other day that, when watching this as a kid, I actually thought that it was Reece singing 😂 they do sound kinda similar.
This is The League of Gentleman meets Little Britain. A few years ago this will be a Cult Classic. Of which I will be proud to say I watched and enjoyed. It's dark and sinister and completely fantastic!!!
Here's a tip. If you're on a public conveyance and you're the type of person who doesn't like to draw attention to yourself in any way, best not to watch this. I've laughed once and snorted once, trying to step on a laugh.
The Fowler policeman character a most welcome reincarnation of Kinky John Fowler from Bang Bang (1998). Both versions of this character are hilarious. I wonder how many retakes were required. Can you imagine acting against that? In his hands I am ginger…putty.
I've often wondered about this - he would have to have given consent for his likeness (or whoever owns the rights to the picture at least) but is half a face a likeness?
Very much British humour. Love Vic & Bob. Why does Reese always play a nutter? League of gentlemen... But never forgetting the dulcet tones of Mulligan & O'hare....
I wasn't aware *that* many people were talking about kinky boots... Ya learn something new, each day. (this is me doing MY bit, you know.... kinky boots)
Reese Shearsmith plays the perfect psychopath and not just here. He spooks me! What a brilliant actor!
He also makes a pretty good racist santa
the mum and son relationship was funny as hell
You assume he's acting!
He was great in “The Cottage” with Andy Serkis.
Catterick is a masterpiece - so many characters by the best of British comedy talent.
When Roy tried to impress Tess and shit himself I nearly died laughing!
"It's pratt spray"
A line i never thought i'd hear
Jim's poilce character (used in other shows/sketches) just cracks me up! 🤣🤣😂😂
Kinky John
I LOVE Reece Shearsmith & Bob Mortimer
"Aww eh man don't ring George Clooney...not on this phone"
The gesturing towards the three candles at 17:35
Astute observation!
"Might I ask that none of you leave Europe until this investigation is over" :')
How Bob kept a straight face during the phone call bit is incredible 😂
"I owe my life to Tooperware."
"There should be some women there.... But there won't be"
Bob is really a good leading man.
He really is. I've always thought that he is just that little bit more funny than Vic, cos he doesn't overdo it? If that makes sense?

You should give Bob's audiobook a listen. He talks about his acting. It's a good story.

Reece sheersmith is a brilliant actor - should be on far bigger sruff
Yeah, he should be on that Inside Number 9 or League of Gentlemen.
@@mancdown he’d be perfect fit tbf, shocked he didn’t make an appearance
‘Got her cowies out’
lol
Great to see Julie T Wallace in this! Great cast all round. Gotta love Vic and Bob!
She is brilliant she has been in so many things
Julie t Wallace,she was great in THE LIFE AND LOVES OF A SHE DEVIL in 1986.great actress.
Love her!
Oh yeh!!! That’s where she was from
One of the very finest works of tragedy and romance and the mermade. Sublime ❤
I’d love to have been fly on the wall when the film crew were trying to put the turkey in that box 😂
Sgt Minge Munchington 🤣

you mean a few years from now?
Think this was released before both of them!?!?!
It’s been a few years-and still no-one cares
@@1JYNOT Catterick 2004; League 1999; Little Britain 2003.
23:07 - love Carl laughing at this bit ...
Roy Oates might just be one of the funniest characters I’ve ever seen
I feel indebted to whom ever posted this. Brilliant simply brilliant.
24:50 soooo addictive and best part of this show.
The auto-generated subtitles are fucking priceless :)
Oh god his face at 19:40 with the reflection in his glasses 😬
Hahaha! That's great
To this day George Clooney is inconsolable.
If I may indulge in a Mortimerian cross-reference: Carl looks like Barry Homeowner, but doesn't sound like him and isn't awful
I’d give anything to be at a disco in a hotel with 4 other people, listening to Steve Harley and the cockney rebels and Average White Band
"There should be some women there... but there won't be."
An actual joke!
Please elaborate?
"It's prat spray" lolol
9:23 "Who made the bed, ya mam?" Still kills me off now
8:29 - How mad, and random is that . . . . ha ha ha ha
this is pure genius
How have I not seen this before pure class
'Fanny Fresh'
"She made us... Happy!"
I liked it when they said words, them words sometimes made me laugh and when I laugh I get haha
This is one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen in my life. Long live Vic &Bob!
Can't say fairer n' that
I hope I also go haha :)
It's Kinky John! 🎉
Didn’t think I’d see Reece lip syncing to morrissey but here we are 😂
Pure brilliance
Mark Benton is a great actor.

dial ninetynine nine and ask for the American eagle
Mrs Beardsley loves this show.
Great Morrissey song in this episode xxx
Brilliant, brilliant Morwenna.
Sergeant Mingemungington.
I could maybe, probably not love this show more than I do
It's the fine,(very fine),details.. Eurosport on telly in the hotel room.
What's the joke there, please?
Vic n Bob at their best
Appreciate them actually playing a song by Weather Report lol
Satan rejected my soul...
“Shit, ahoy!!”
🤣🤣🤣
The irony of Shearsmith calling anyone a "shortarse"
I de-capitated my George Clooney poster!
A masterpiece.
17:17
3:31 this scene is great.
A man could suffocate on such luxury
25:03 OMG he sounds exactly like Morrissey
😂👏
He's miming
Morrissey!Morrissey!Morrissey!❤
22:40 Disco nayte lol
Vic & Bob were years ahead of other writers. You can see so many origins in this. League of Gentlemen for one.
This came after League of Gentlemen but there's no doubt their earlier stuff was an influence.
The Fowler policeman character a most welcome reincarnation of Kinky John Fowler from Bang Bang (1998). Both versions of this character are hilarious. I wonder how many retakes were required. Can you imagine acting against that? In his hands I am ginger…putty.
This happened to me once
Wonder if George Clooney has watched this 🤣
I've often wondered about this - he would have to have given consent for his likeness (or whoever owns the rights to the picture at least) but is half a face a likeness?
The morrissey interlude 😭🤨
wtf is going on in this show? I cant stop watching.... I mean you have to see what happens next...
I got seewius weservations about this.
Seewius
I am aghast!
Why he got fox on head?
What the fuck have I been watching?
Have you seen HOUSE OF FOOLS?
It's a heightened, heightened send up of this sort of thing, with very acute observations of typical elements. You did ask .....
Does anyone have a tracklist for the music used in this series? Hand
@@garyrobertfisher Dancing scene is steve harley (cockney rebel) - come up and see me. a classic !
Dancing scene is cockney rebel Judy teen
You know what, I really want to make a catterick playlist !! Some absolute tunes
They even slipped some Jaco Pastorius in towards the end.
There all gr8 in this show, but Vic does me up like a kipper every time.(I KNOWWWWW)
Totally fucked up but HAND brilliant.
Crab sticks 😅
Very much British humour. Love Vic & Bob. Why does Reese always play a nutter? League of gentlemen... But never forgetting the dulcet tones of Mulligan & O'hare....
He murdered a poor innocent turkey in a box. Reese I'm gonna slap you ya tight git.

My family always say - youre only 47
Sgt Minge-Mungeington.

There should be some women there, but there wont be.
