BBC Factual has commissioned an eighth series of Mortimer and Whitehouse: Gone Fishing for BBC Two and iPlayer, it was announced today.

The series, produced by Owl Power, will see Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse exploring more of the UK’s countryside. 

Each fishing location will be chosen by its relevance to Paul or Bob personally, following the broad journeys of their lives.

Each of the six episodes features a wide ranging theme about life which Paul and Bob discuss, often sharing very personal insights and experiences with each other.

The seventh series, which is due to air later this year expanded its run to eight episodes for the first time, with the friends' excursions seeing them visit Bedfordshire, North Norfolk and Northern Ireland.
