Bob Mortimer was well on his way to National Treasure status even before his fishing series with Paul Whitehouse became a major hit. His work with Vic Reeves, his shaggy dog stories on Would I Lie To You? and his general air of comic genius have all conspired to make him something of a hero. So it's great to see him back in his waders for this third series*.

The ransmission date has been confirmed for the third series of the award-winning Mortimer and Whitehouse: Gone Fishing.
The acclaimed series starring real-life friends Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse will air on BBC Two at 8pm from Sunday August 23.
Bob Mortimer's online character Train Guy is coming to the BBC.
He is one of the characters in the new lockdown series Comedians: Home Alone, which starts on BBC Two on June 1 at 10.15pm.
Mortimer's clips of his over-sharing "Yah yah, for sure, you are as always, ciao, Col" commuter, often talking loudly and annoyingly about his business partner Geoff Linton, have become a massive hit on social media, regularly notching up millions of views. In this new show his character appears in animated form.
In Comedians Playing With Themselves some of the nation’s favourite comics including Bob Mortimer, Kerry Godliman, Tom Allen, Meera Syal and Sanjeev Bhaskar, Tez Ilyas, Russell Kane, Sally Phillips, Mat Horne, and a whole host of others, will be tasked with entertaining and enlightening the nation in their own unique way.
Comic legends Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer are to do a series of live shows with a difference next year.
In An Evening With Vic and Bob the duo will discuss why they do what they do, how they do what they do and hopefully much more.
The tour will start on February 10 at Nottingham Playhouse and ends on February 18 in Newcastle at the Tyne Theatre & Opera House.
The evening will include a question and answer session too.
Over the summer, Gone Fishing once again charmed the nation with consolidated audiences of 2.2 million tuning in to see lifelong friends and comedic royalty, Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse return to the riverbanks.
The series received universally positive reviews and audiences that increased throughout the series run.
Before Bob Mortimer made his name as a star contributor to BBC television's yarn-spinning series Would I Lie To You? it looks like he was honing his fictitious storytelling skills on late night radio.
It has been a not particularly well-kept rumour that Mortimer used to phone up late night radio DJ Iain Lee regularly over a five-week period in the guise of someone called "Keith" and spin various flights of fancy about his friends and his family.
Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer are making a second series of Vic & Bob’s Big Night Out for BBC Four.
Bob will once again preside over the Wheel of Justice and Novelty Island will be back. There will also be the return of hit sketches The Free Runners and Mostly UnHaunted alongside a host of new characters and guest stars.
The legendary comedy duo will be joined once again by hapless Vaun (Vaun Earl Norman).
The Bob Mortimer & Paul Whitehouse series ‘Mortimer and Whitehouse: Gone Fishing’ has won the Broadcasting Press Guild Award for Best Entertainment.
Derry Girls won the award for Best Comedy.
Romesh Ranganathan picked up the prize for Podcast of The Year for 'Hip Hop Saved My Life'.
