    Bob Mortimer on gardening’s unfolding stories, fishing, and amazing alliums

    It’s the first episode of Outsiding and we have found the perfect guest to welcome into our garden. Bob Mortimer is an adored comedian, presenter, writer and actor, who loves the outdoors with the same passion as he does big TVs.  Bob joins Caitlin and Adam to chat about the paperback release of his third novel, The Long Shoe, a book that, as we find out, has plenty of Bob’s charm and personality within it. But, before that, Bob gets a tour of Caitlin’s new garden plot and is invited to christen the project ahead of its upcoming transformation.  Then, over pocket meats and pies we journey through Bob’s love of life outdoors from walking and gardening to spending time with Paul Whitehouse on Gone Fishing. We get new names for established plants, marvel at the wonder of oaks trees, and Adam is given a special gift. We have our first gardening friend and we’re delighted it’s Bob, a certified national treasure!  Let us know what you think of our first episode and please send us your favourite outside places, memories and gardening questions to hello@outsiding.co.uk Follow Outsiding on Substack for gardening tips, tricks, live Q&As with Adam and the progress of Caitlin’s garden project.
