The news of the BBC’s axing of Shooting Stars is incredibly sad for long-time fans of the surreal panel show fronted by Vic and Bob. While it’s probably fair to say that recent episodes were becoming a little stale, they were still punctuated by moments funnier than anything else on TV. If this is indeed the definitive end of the show, it’s a very sad day for fans of Vic and Bob’s unique style of comedy.
I’d also have to ask the BBC why Shooting Stars is the first show to go and not all the guff they shove out onto BBC Three….. But that’s another matter. We can only hope that with Shooting Stars being seen as redundant by the BBC, Vic and Bob will go onto bigger and better things and become inspired to do something a little different.
