  I really love how Bob has broken David. An otherwise perfectly reasonable logician thrown into the depths of hell that is literally anything Bob claims.

  I don't think we're giving enough credit to David Mitchell describing a formula 1 race as televised traffic.

  "A company with very fast company cars" is no doubt the best ever definition of an F1 team.

  You missed his other egg statement about doing 50 haircuts at the world cup and being paid in egg sandwiches

  The way Bob destroys David's confidence is amazing. "What should I base it on Bob?" His eyes in that moment are those of a broken man. "I'll never know Samantha..." She has the same expression of total uncertainty in her reality. Bob is a dangerous man. he can unspool your whole psyche with an affable grin and a story about a scotch egg.

  I'll never get tired of watching David's anxiety spike every time it's Bob's turn to tell his story.

  Sometimes Bob really sounds like one of those AI story generators responding to prompts.

  Bob Mortimer is a kind of David Mitchell jammer - it renders David's brain unable to function properly,  he just hears static

  “What else shall I base it on Bob?”

  Bob Mortimer is a national treasure. His story telling is absolutely diabolical.

  As an American visiting England, I found myself quite often with a sausage roll placed in my pocket by a friendly local.

  The endless rewatchability of Bob on WILTY makes me feel like a kid being told my favourite bedtime story; I probably know how it ends, but don't care, because I'm just delighted by the performance of the tale every time.
