More Reeds content from my favourite Reeds channel

They are the masters of silly, anarchic humour. Insanely talented

My Chinese friend told me he was opening a crows shop. I said, 'don't you mean clothes shop? 'No' he said, 'come and take a rook'.

Vic and Bob have known each other or many years and before they made it big they would sit together for hours and make up insanely stupid scenarios such as this one, and much of it is ad-libbed. Bob Mortimer used to be a lawyer so as well as being very funny, he is also extremely intelligent and sharp - you can see this best on WILTY.

Big city like Reeds

Shooting stars please, it’s insane

'The Smell of Reeves and Mortimer' is a great one if you wanna go down their rabbit hole. Or 'Shooting Stars' of course.

A few episodes of Shooting Stars, please. UVAVU!!

Vic and Bob are most famous for a cult TV show called Shooting Stars, but it’s completely mental, totally bizarre and uniquely British. There are YouTube videos of “Americans watch Shooting Stars”, and they’re left bewildered, basically saying “WTF is going on…?” So I probably wouldn’t recommend it to you, as it’s just insanely wacky. We grew up with it as a prime-time Friday night comedy show on the BBC. Maybe have a quick look on YouTube, but I wouldn’t be offended if you didn’t get it.. it’s very much a British thing prob wouldnt travel well (although there are a few American Celebs who have been on the show if memory serves). Vic and Bob to us in the UK is what Saturday Night Live is to Americans (well, prob not now, but when SNL was at its peak)

Somebody needs to do a full Vic and Bob deep dive and I think it's you guys

There's 20 of those little sketches in total and they're all really funny, the Glassblowers and Mostly Unhaunted are my personal favourites

Dr shakamoto!

Vic and Bob - pure chaos and randomness! Absolute icons of British Comedy.

It’s definitely worth checking out some of the other sketches from Afternoon Delights (esp Mostly Unhaunted!) as they are pretty much done ad-lib and off the cuff. Bob in Wilty is a must of course…to be honest I though you had already reacted to that lol

Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer are on another level of British insanity, and I am here for it.

Bob WILTY is a much. Also vic reeves big night out and shooting stars shooting stars was a wacko fake quiz show that’s like an LSD trip and they had on someone from the show Dallas who clearly wasn’t told what the show was and doesn’t get it at all it’s hilarious

Not Vic and Bob but Fat sweaty coppers compilation from the fast show is hilarious.

Like super high power fire pony 🔥🐎 But now she can fry 🍳

You should give' Vik Reeves Big Night Out' or 'Smell of Reeves and Mortimer' a go. That was their peak as a duo. I love this but I saw this when I was already a big fan.

I love seeing them holding back their laughter throughout
