Free Audiobook : And Away…, by Bob Mortimer

Bob Mortimer’s life is a wild, funny ride, and "And Away..." invites you to hop along for the journey. From his Middlesbrough childhood, marked by both everyday joys and unexpected chaos, to a chance pub encounter that launched a comedy career, Bob’s story is packed with the kind of absurd, laugh-out-loud moments he’s known for on shows like Would I Lie to You?. Yet, a health scare in 2015 shakes things up, nudging him to look back with a mix of wit and quiet reflection.

Narrated by Bob himself, this audiobook is like sitting down with a mate who’s got the best stories. His warm, mischievous voice brings every tale to life, from daft misadventures to the friendships that shaped him, including his bond with Vic Reeves and fishing pal Paul Whitehouse. It’s not all laughs, though; Bob’s honesty about life’s tougher moments adds a depth that hits you right in the feels, making the funny bits even sweeter.

By the end, you’ll feel like you know Bob a little better, and maybe even see your own life with fresh eyes. "And Away..." is a heartfelt, hilarious listen that’s as comforting as a pint with a friend, perfect for anyone who loves a good yarn or needs a pick-me-up. Get ready to chuckle, tear up, and cheer for a true national treasure.
