In short, he is a remarkable person even setting aside the comedy success. Rust Publishing Ltd, 103 Bute Street, Cardiff, CF10 5NZ. Registered in England and Wales. All rights reserved.

In recent years Bob has become a popular contestant on Would I Lie To You for the incredible stories from his life, and Bob's first book is filled with more of the hilariously unbelievable misadventures that fans love him for. From burning down the family home to starting a short-lived punk band, Bob shares tales from his life with the warmth and good-natured humour that have made him a national treasure. This was so funny. Bob Mortimer has a gift for storytelling, weaving the most interesting stories of his life into a very relatable and honest account. From his childhood in Middlesbrough, we see him roam the streets with his friends, take on various jobs and eventually meet Jim Noir, a partnership that would ultimately change the course of his life. Some of the stories he tells are completely bonkers, from the pony watching TV in a living room to Mark Lemar falling through a ceiling and walking off. It's as chaotic and random as you would imagine from Bob. And Away? is the eagerly-awaited first autobiography by comedian Bob Mortimer. Known and loved as part of the comedy duo - Vic and Bob - with Vic Reeves, Bob has been making us laugh on our TV screens for over 30 years.I record my solemn conviction that hospital work, rightly done, is by far and away the most needful and the most acceptable of the chaplain's work. This is an excellent read by one of the funniest men around. I have been looking forward to this one for sometime now and it was well worth waiting for. Strangely enough I don’t particularly like the comedy programmes he appears in with Vic Reeves but find him laugh out loud funny both in print and when he appears on ‘Would I Lie to you’ where he reminisces about his past. Home and Away airs weekdays at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK), with first look screenings at 6.30pm on 5STAR. There's lots to appreciate and enjoy, and this is well worth reading if you like Bob and/or you like memoirs. Bob Mortimer is pretty much established as a national treasure…So it's great to hear his story of how he got there first-hand…In the end he has become loved for being himself. And maybe that's the best type of success of all.’
