    To see Sean laughing, and I mean properly chuckling to himself in every shot he's in with Bob, just goes to show that Bob is a national comedy treasure, just the same as Sean is/was.

    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.

    When you can make the brilliant, legendary dry humoured comedian that is Sean Lock crack up, you're a pretty funny guy! Lol Bob is such a joy to watch takes me back to Shooting Stars days as a kid! Rip Sean.

    A TV show with Sean and Bob as hosts would have been amazing.

    I never found Bob funny on Shooting Stars, but watching him on shows like this in and WILTY, he is genuinely very funny

    When they say that true comedy comes from gravest of misery, I think of Bob Mortimer and wholeheartedly disagree.

      Bob had his fair share of misery growing up, if he'd been born with a silver spoon in his mouth and never had to work for anything do you think he'd be the same person he is today?

    You just know a clip will be good when it starts off with a Sean Locke laugh..doubly so when he laughs against 😉
    Rest in power, Sean ❤️
