Comedy series observing Paul Whitehouse and Bob Mortimer fishing together.

Mortimer & Whitehouse: Gone Fishing - The Big Boxset: Series 1-5

The first five series of the hit BBC series. The idea for the show started after Bob Mortimer had a triple heart bypass and Paul, who himself has had a number of stents put in, decided to help him get out of the house and take him fishing.

In each episode the pair head off to do a new location, mostly in the UK but increasingly abroad with Paul taking the role of teacher and Bob irritating him as much as possible, while also cooking up some heart-healthy meals and arranging the accommodation.

Whilst fishing is some glorious and relaxing locations the friends talk about everything, from their childhoods, to things they can't have anymore (cheese and biscuits mostly) as well as life and the effect their health scares have had on them. And then there are the bream, pike, roach, tench, salmon, grayling, rudd who all star across each series.
