Sunday BBC2, 8.10pm It’s gentle, often a bit silly, a whole lot of fun – and even those who have never picked up a fishing rod in their lives adore this programme. The best buddies have a festive treat for viewers, and it’s also rather special for Bob Mortimer because it takes him back to his roots in Middlesbrough. He and Paul Whitehouse spend time angling on the river Esk and Tees in the hope of catching an elusive glorious grayling. Bob also tries to prove to Paul that the spirit of Christmas really does still exist, which could prove trickier than landing any fish.
