Bob Mortimer, known for his role in the BBC series “Mortimer and Whitehouse: Gone Fishing,” has made a comeback in the latest season. The first episode of season eight features Bob and his friend Paul Whitehouse exploring the fishing spots along Hampshire’s River Itchen.

In the new series, Bob shared about improving his smile after facing health challenges. During a break from fishing, Bob jokingly showed off his new teeth to Paul, who inquired about where he got them done. Bob humorously replied that he got them from a dentist, dismissing the idea of going to Turkey for the makeover.

As the conversation continued, Bob showcased his functional teeth and playfully teased Paul about his own teeth possibly crumbling. The friends later discussed their looks and health over breakfast, with Bob mentioning his battle with shingles affecting his leg muscles but maintaining a positive attitude.

Bob, proudly displaying his new teeth, amused Paul with the length of his teeth, leading to a playful exchange between the two. The episode also highlighted Bob’s past dental work, with him revealing that he has been performing his own dentistry for the past 15 years, excluding certain procedures.

Despite facing health challenges, including a battle with shingles that required him to use a wheelchair during previous seasons of Gone Fishing, Bob expressed gratitude for his recovery. He shared that his leg function was returning, though he still experienced some limitations but was thankful for being able to get back on his feet.

Bob Mortimer’s journey through health challenges and his unique approach to dental care continue to engage viewers, showcasing his resilience and humor on-screen.
