Mortimer & Whitehouse Gone Fishing follows Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse as they rekindle a three-decade friendship through quiet days on the river. After both men faced heart disease, they decided to dust off their fishing kits, don waders and explore the achingly beautiful British countryside. The book pairs gentle humour with reflective moments and conversational insight into life’s smaller and bigger questions — from “How did we get so old?” to “What should we do if we find a corpse?” It’s an uplifting, visually vivid read that celebrates companionship, nature and the restorative power of slow pastimes.

And Away... is Bob Mortimer’s hilarious and moving memoir, framed by the 2015 health scare that forced him to reassess his life. Filled with trademark Mortimer anecdotes — from a Middlesbrough childhood shaded by loss to misadventures like the short-lived punk band Dog Dirt and onstage stories made famous by TV appearances such as Would I Lie to You? — the book balances outrageous comedy with candid vulnerability. It’s an authentic portrait of a beloved British comedian who turned setbacks into material and meaning.

• Two complementary books — a reflective nature-led read plus a candid memoir.
• Perfect paperback edition — easy to carry, share, and gift.
• Great for multiple readers — suitable for adults, book clubs, and classroom discussions on storytelling and resilience.
• Trusted authorial voice — Bob Mortimer is a well-known figure in UK comedy whose warmth and honesty resonate with readers.

Why choose this collection? This set offers both laughter and solace: the kind of books readers return to for comfort, conversation starters and thoughtful gifts. Whether you’re buying for a comedy fan, a nature lover, or someone recovering from illness, these titles provide companionship in print. From award-winning TV moments to quiet riverside chats, Bob Mortimer’s voice is both familiar and fresh — a timeless keepsake for living rooms, bedside tables, and school libraries alike.
