paulcarruthers I must be honest, I have never been a great fan of either of the stars of the show in their other shows...but, this show is an absolute joy to watch. Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse are obviously good friends, this is apparent from the very first minutes of the first episode, they have a genuine rapport that can only be built over years of friendship, they are relaxed in each others company and their 'idle' chat is natural, unforced and unscripted. Mr Whitehouse shows his genuine love and actual great knowledge of fishing while Mr Mortimer has a puppies enthusiasm and a real wish for his friend to achieve his per episode goal. Sometimes poignient, sometimes funny ( laugh out loud in parts ) but always a pure joy.....I'm hooked.

missundaztood9 I didn't know what to expect, but I like them both so I had a look at it. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it is. A strange format but it works really well. I immediately added it to my favourites on iPlayer. I hope they make another series, maybe doing something else next time or maybe the same again, it doesn't really matter as the entertainment and the fun is watching them both spending time together.

chainshotuk What I love about this show is you feel these two comedic stars are real buddies. They play off each other with great timing but also have a goal with a fish to catch. Whoever worked out the format deserves a pat on the back.If you want to escape the stresses of day to day life then kickback and watch these two chaps doing what most men of a certain age would love to do.

Jamie Crampton Me? Watch a programme about two old blokes with dodgy tickers going fishing? With my reputation? I wasn't sure about this but it totally works, Paul & Bob have a brilliant rapport & you get the impression this is so easy for them to pair up, albeit due to the fact that they have similar ailments in common. It's funny, thought provoking & a genuine "buddy" programme.
