The BBC series "Gone Fishing," featuring comedians Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse, is set to return later this year with a new six-episode season. The upcoming series will be notable for including the final appearance of Ted, a Patterdale terrier cross and the show’s canine star, who passed away in April.

Ted was owned by the programme’s producer, Lisa Clark, and became a memorable part of the series, frequently capturing viewers’ attention with his lively presence. Both Mortimer and Whitehouse acknowledged the significance of Ted’s role, with Mortimer describing one episode as particularly special due to it being Ted’s last on-screen outing. Whitehouse encouraged fans to tune in to see Ted’s final moments on the show and bid farewell.

In addition to the series, Ted’s memoir, detailing his experiences during filming, is scheduled for release later this year. The book will offer fans a reflective look at Ted’s time on "Gone Fishing," further commemorating the beloved dog's contribution to the programme.
