Reeves & Mortimer for Colston Hall, December

By Steve Wright  Wednesday Apr 6, 2016

Comedy legends Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer will be taking their critically acclaimed live show 25 Years of Reeves & Mortimer: The Poignant Moments back on tour this autumn, in a 13-venue tour which takes in Bristol’s Colston Hall on December 14. Tickets for all shows go on sale this Friday, April 8 at 9am.

Announcing the new shows, Vic Reeves said: “We had a super marvellous time on tour earlier this year.  We had forgotten how much fun it was and got such a great response from our encouragers we decided we had to go out and do it again.”

Bob Mortimer added: “We will be energised and plumptious due to a long summer spent wrapped in an oil soaked carpet. Talking of carpets, not only will we be singing about them, but will also be wearing them in protest against the spread of laminate and ceramic flooring. Hope you will be able to come along and join in.”

25 Years of Reeves and Mortimer: The Poignant Moments is a celebration of the first 25 years of their professional collaboration, from Vic Reeves’ Big Night Out (1990) via The Smell of Reeves & Mortimer (1993/4) and Shooting Stars (1999-2011) to House Of Fools (2014 & 2015).

The duo cancelled their last scheduled show at Colston Hall on November 25 and 26 after Mortimer was forced to undergo a triple bypass heart operation.
