Bob's best friend and housemate, acting as both a source of annoyance and a voice of reason to Bob. Vic tends to be more easy-going than Bob, with more of a sense of awareness about the bigger picture. Vic is willing to go out of his way to help his friend Bob out, though he will often indulge in strange and juvenile behaviour, such as stealing wigs using a trained hawk from a wig-wearer's convention. He often starts the episode with a song, usually to the tune of " Day Trip to Bangor". It's Christmas Eve and Vic and Beef can't wait to start the celebrations, but this isn't the case for poor Bob whose festivities are cut short when the Christmas present he organised for his sulky son Erik, a bobble hat, is destroyed.

Vic prepares for a big date with his ex-girlfriend Mary, but she has to cancel at the last minute so his friends set about concocting an ingenious plan to make sure he isn't left disappointed. Set in Bob Mortimer's home, each episode sees Bob frustrated by the uninvited lodgers, visitors and guests who constantly fill his house. Vic Reeves is the long term and mostly unwanted guest in Bob's house, always treating the place like his own, with little regard for his reluctant host's wishes. Living alongside them is Bob's Norwegian son, Erik and next door is Julie, who lives in a haze of imagined fantasies. Rachel is Erik's girlfriend and has several noticeable similarities to Erik, including her clothes, speaking voice and mannerisms. Stand by for unadulterated daft fun in this warm and wonderfully original sitcom written by and starring iconic comedy duo Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer. The series takes the duo of Vic and Bob's blend of rapid-fire jokes and surrealist wit, applying it to the sitcom format. Episodes are filled with musical routines to deliver plot points, strange events that break up the action, non-sequitur gags, off-colour jokes, and oddball characters.
