The sixth series of the BBC’s "Mortimer & Whitehouse: Gone Fishing" has returned, offering viewers six new episodes featuring comedians Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse as they continue their fishing expeditions along the Ribble River in Lancashire. This latest installment carries additional emotional significance, serving as a final tribute to Ted, the beloved Patterdale terrier who has been a staple presence throughout the series. Ted passed away in April of this year, and the producers have carefully edited the episodes to honour the dog’s memory.

The programme retains its characteristic charm, blending humorous and reflective moments as Mortimer and Whitehouse explore the natural surroundings while discussing life and health. Ted’s appearances in this series mark his final screen presence, providing a poignant farewell to the canine companion who endeared himself to audiences.

All six episodes of the series are available for streaming on BBC iPlayer.
