Vic Reeves admits he ‘doesn’t speak much’ with Bob Mortimer but hopes they’ll reunite

Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer have discussed reuniting for a “one-off show” at Wembley Stadium.

The comedy duo have appeared on several shows – including BBC game show Shooting Stars – over the years, but they haven’t shared the screen since Vic and Bob’s Big Night Out in 2019.

While Vic – whose real name is Jim Moir – has admitted they haven’t spoken “much” of late, the pair haven’t fallen out and he is confident they will reunite.

He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “I’ve spoken to him [Bob]. And he’s going, ‘I don’t know.’ Because he likes fishing and I like bird watching. It would be great to do something though.

“We wouldn’t do Shooting Stars, we’d probably do all the other stuff. I hope we do something together. I think we will. We never speak much.”

In June, Bob told how he and Vic had “drifted apart”.

During an appearance on the ‘RHLSTP’ podcast, he said: “I got on great with Jim, but no, we’re both doing our own little things at the moment.”

“We had a lovely time, but you get older. I wish I’d done more with Jim, you know, when we were younger, because now, we have drifted apart.

“As I get older, I think of all the lovely people I’ve known and don’t see them anymore – it just seems to happen.”

Vic previously admitted he “never really speaks” to his comedy partner anymore.

During an interview with Radio Times, he said: “We never really speak much. Bob and I have never been ones for talking on the phone.”

“[I’ll] see him now and then and have a chat about things.”
