Bob is a lawyer. Solicitor.. Lee Mack is a brilliant comedian. So sharp and witty

We do beg your pardon, but we are in your garden…

you know somebody's good on this show when his own team starts questioning him

With this show, basically, everything read from the card has to be true (if it's actual truth of course) and you can embellish and subvert as much as you want. Bob has been a genius of surreal comedy for over thirty years, so this comes easily to him. That and the fact his life outside of comedy appears to have been just as surreal. :) His autobiography, 'And Away...' is superb.

In traditional British usage, tuck shops are associated chiefly with the sale of confectionery, sweets, or snacks and are common at private ('fee-paying') schools, and my Secondary school, 11 to 16 year olds when I went to school in the late 60s. In some regions, the words 'tuck shop' may be interchangeable with a 'canteen'. The term is used in the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Canada, Nigeria, Pakistan, India, Jamaica, Hong Kong, Botswana, The Bahamas and in other parts of the former British Empire. The term "tuck", meaning food, is slang and probably originates from such phrases as "to tuck into a meal". It is closely related to the Australian English word "tucker", meaning food.

Bob and his freind comedian Paul Whitehouse are currently on season 6 of their fishing show here in the UK. It's very entertaining . Bob was asked by Paul to go fishing with him for relaxation due to him having a heart operation . The show is a mixture of chat, cooking , and fishing . I believe some episodes are on ytube .

I played a game where we all submitted several facts/stories to the leader. Then three people were called to the front, and one of their stories was read. People could ask them questions before voting on whose story they thought it was. The goal was for the two liars to get votes and the truth teller to not be believed while only telling the truth.

I like the idea of calling it a Truck Shop and it only selling Yorkies!! Lol!! (Joke for the Brits!) We had them at school and they were run by different students each time they opened! This has changed a bit now, as they don't want our kids eating rubbish food....poor kids that they don't get to have fun anymore, because the mistakes were realised with us lot! Lol! 🤣💜💜💜

If you enjoy Bob Mortimer, see if you can find a series ‘Gone Fishing’ which he does with another comedian, Paul Whitehouse. It’s not side splitting humour but just very funny and very enjoyable

Oo yes, love your idea! I'd definitely watch x

Anything WILTY would be great, it's a brilliantly funny show with some very interesting people, thank you.

Omg i was crying with laughter, thanks for that 😊.

A tuck shop is a place where kids can buy snacks. You usually find them in Schools or at kids clubs etc!

"Theft and Shrubbery" is what you were trying to remember at the end there :) "We do beg your pardon, but we are in your garden!"

Reeves and Mortimer "Shooting Stars" should tickle your follicles! The humour should cross the pond!

Bob Mortimer and Vic Reeves have their own show back in the late 90s call shooting stars. I'm not saying do a live reaction but if you want to know why Bob is so good I would definitely check out an episode of shooting stars

When I moved to NZ I was in my last year of high school and as prefects we were in charge of the tuck shop. Fresh cream cakes were delivered every day and for some reason the profits were low and the prefects put on weight that year.

A tuck shop on a camp site is a place to buy sweets (candies). On a lot of campsites it is a small area of a camp store that sells a greater variety of food stuff.

Bob was a very good footballer and was on the youth teams of a professional club

i know what you mean a lot of those "experts" know nothing, poker pros on the other hand would do a good job for example when victoria coren mitchell was on the show she did great because she is a pro poker player and knew how to read people pretty well. i have some tricks like if someone says "i cant remember" they tend to be telling the truth as its easy to invent a lie answer (but bob and Lee sometimes do actually do this also) and when people pretend to have to reread the name on the card its usually the truth. a good example is claudia winkleman she always acts a bit confused and like a "bad liar" every time she is telling the truth but makes it sound more plausible when its a lie.

I feel like Lee frequently has some tells when he lies. He'll blink more often, several times in a row. That said, I think that Lee's been on the show for so long that they've largely used up his true stories. Now they just give him the most absurd things to see what outrageous story he comes up with. I don't think he even expects to be believed these days, he's just trying to spin a good yarn.

Body language experts, the biggest con ever. Constructed for tv and movies, made real by by liars.

100% recommend getting Bob’s autobiography (And Away), especially the audible version as the man himself reads it.

Bob Mortimer reminds me of Ed Bloom from the movie "Big Fish" who used to tell these outlandish stories but in the end they turned out to be real.

Bob and the dying owl is a classic on wilty also check out "fun fun fun" Reeves and Mortimer !

I watch all your videos, in the UK, not only for the content but to see the great reaction between you. You clearly have a wonderful relationship and you are as entertaining as the subject matter. Respects to you both and keep the videos coming.

It's "tuck", as in "tuck in everybody, this is tasty." From Friar Tuck perhaps. A tuck-shop is a snack shop. British highschools will often run a tuck-shop on-site to make some more money for the school, and to discourage pupils from leaving the school premises during the school day to buy snacks elsewhere during break times.

Tuck shops, we had them in school back in the day. I don't know if they exist these days or not. Small area within the school where they sell snacks, candy , etc... and you could purchase during your school break time. I'm not referring to the school canteen where you get lunch, and it's a much bigger area I used to get loads of penny sweets. I liked the friendship ring and the fizzy cola. We're talking around 30 yrs ago, or so.

YeS jodi and nick your own version of wilty would be fun.get on it jodi ❤

BR👍Bob's garden game was ' theft and shrubbery' others will likely already have said a tuck shop is a small shop inside a school or youth club type of scenario with snacks drinks, chocolate bars etc my high-school used to have one, not sure if schools still have them or whether it's all vending machines now. Cheers guys✌️

a tuck shop is what we used to have at school... it's short for tucker, which means food, so it's like food for kids, crisps, sweets etc

Compilation? Oh yes please!!

Only Bob can have these Stories hahahaha.

Bob`s autobiography is a brilliant read. A lot of WILTY stories are in the book.

Hard to believe he's a solicitor by profession !!

Definitely do your own wilty .

A Bob episode of Wilty is not to be missed . The players obviously have their true story but the others do have no idea until they get the card . It's always fun even if the Lies are ridiculous , Lee , David and Rob make a great team to keep things rolling nicely as not all the players are comedians . There really are no bad episodes of this show .

Bob has published his autobiography called ‘ And away ‘ it’s hilarious and has many of his Wilty stories in it.

I do beg your pardon, I am in your garden. 😂

tuck shop is a shop that sells food ready to eat. usually found in Aussie schools instead of a canteen or dining room. Yeah do a WILTY! it would be fun to watch.

Everything comes from England I suspect, but.. Tuck Shop is Aussie for Tucker shop (food). The mothers volunteered a day a week to make food for the kids in the local school. Tucker is Aussie for din dins ie "Tuckyer shirt in, we're eating." Guess the Brits said that as well.... There was an Aussie poem and a statue called dog on a tucker box. (thought there was also a song) I love the way Lee set up Bob for the "oh they've not using Fuji" joke.Lee is SO fast. Lee is also soo good at interrogating his own team mates. :P
