    Great show

    "MORTIMER & WHITEHOUSE: GONE FISHING" is one of the best shows on tv at the moment. It's nice watching the pair chatting, eating and fishing in various beautiful settings and is effectively relaxing entertainment. Fantastic.

    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.

    Nothing happens, but in the best possible way

    2 comedians produce something only occasionally funny, but always profound. A meditation on death that soothes the soul, and calms the clouded mind. If you don't expect their comedy of old, you will be rewarded with pathos in spades

    Delightful

    It is like sitting in a pub, quietly, surreptitiously listening to two old friends reminiscing and talking nonsense. The "script", music and photography are truly magnificent. Long may it continue.

    Review from a non fisherman

    It doesn't matter whether you fish or not this beautiful series is perfection. Rarely have I seen a program that shows our Country in such a glorious light. Mortimer and Whitehouse rapport is both hilariously funny and at times very moving. The background music is also perfectly chosen, The Proclaimers - After you've gone in Season 2 is a particularly moving highlight as is Vide Cor Meum at the close of Season 3. If you want 30 minutes of calm joyous television after the stresses of modern living please watch this show.
