The Best Of Bob

It is with great pleasure that I mention that two of my episodes have been included on The Best Of Bob, a DVD of the top ten Bob’s voted for on bobthebuilder.com. If I’d known there was a vote, I’d have been doing my best to stuff the ballot. As it is, I’m enormously pleased and proud that Hamish’s New Home and Ballroom Bob made the cut without my help.

I’d just like to thank the Academy, my parents…
