    Most naturally funny person ever. Got drunk with him and Vic in a hotel bar in Nottingham after their live show. Vic was quite serious, Bob kept us all in stitches the whole night. Paid for all the drinks too. Lovely man.

    My younger brother and I loved families at war. I remember Vic was usually the spider, getting moved around a giant cube full of prizes like a human grabber machine. Bob and co-presenter Alice Beer also did spider duties. My brother was 5 or 6 at the time and he would make me hold him up over my head while he screamed "I am the spider"

    I hope Bob returns (for a real new one ;) ). He's always good for a (continuous) laugh...
    When he does, I hope Richard talks to him about Mortimer and Whitehouse Gone Fishing.
    It's such a good time, if you haven't watched it, remedy that mistake immediately! You won't regret it.

      I think they're happy to acknowledge his undoubted popularity, charisma, and talent as a performer, but are less than impressed by his humourless... er... 'sense of self'.
      Confidence is one thing, but Peter's ego could give Donny Trumpholio's or that absurd little Kanye West bloke's a run for its money. It's for other people to say how great you are - especially if you're a Brit - otherwise you're in danger of being seen as a 🐦.
