35:16 - The face of Keeley Hawes realizing she underestimated Kevin Bridges 😂 The Bulgarian Horse story will always be my favorite moment on Wilty (together with Bob Mortimer's best bits).

[@brelshar4968]

Keely Hawes.. absolute bombshell, beautiful woman.

[@cmtippens9209]

I am hearing the horse story for the 2nd time and I am wheezing with laughter. 🤣 Again! Just watching David trying to get the facts straight ("...extortionate rate...") and Lee convulsed on the desk would almost have you believing it couldn't possibly be true. But good on him for sticking with it to the end. 😂 One of the funniest segments I've seen on WILTY. 😆

I've seen every episode of WILTY and the Kevin Bridges buying a horse story is probably my favourite single story of the whole show. But Bob Mortimer is probably the best guest, just a wild ride every time he's on.

I absolutely agree. Well summed up.

Kevin's horse story is very much like a Bob Mortimer story.

[@tompayne3255]

The story is brilliant but for me there are two contenders for best story! One has to be Lee's BERMUDA girlfriend and the other is Bob's gulf stream story!

[@billyaustin5317]

27:47 Probably the greatest story in the history of the show. Kevin Bridges clearly went to the Bob Mortimer school of lying - turn the story into absolute chaos and they will never believe it

[@kristapsmuravjovs7061]

Besides Lee's and David's ridiculous stories, Bob Mortimer has got to be my absolute favorite. The absurdity of his stories and the way he tells them is just so brilliant, I wish we had more of him on WILTY.

I remember Standard Fireworks, they were the best brand. And the excitement around early to mid October, in the 1950s, when someone excitedly said, They've got bangers (exploding fireworks, firecrackers, beloved of boys then) in the local shop. Fireworks could only legally be sold about a month before November 5th, Bonfire or Guy Fawkes' Night. Great memories.

[@alexanderewing3779]

There were also Astra & Brocks fireworks. Back in the day!

[@RocksterOO1]

I remember buying a Roman Candle from our local papershop, then I went back to buy another one and the woman told me, "I can't sell you one of those, you're too young!" I said, "But you sold me one this morning", and she told me to be quiet about that, and sold me another one to make me go away! lol On another occasion, I gave myself a minor electric shock when I tried to light a sparkler off of a bar on our electric fire! I remember the pain shooting up my arm and my hand going numb, then me immediately looking around to make sure nobody had seen me, feeling stupid and sheepish, fully understanding what I'd done wrong and why. lol I was about nine or ten years old, I guess!

There's a particular clip where Lee gets a prompt to read that is so absolutely ridiculous and unbelievable, that he actually looks directly at the camera, as if looking at the show writers and producers, and says something like "this one is so wild you practically can't believe it."

Re the firework story I can remember my first firecracker night in England (I’m Australian) at 8 and being in a flat when my father laid down newspaper over the carpeted floor to protect them so we could have sparklers indoors as it was too cold to go out. It’s a wonder we didn’t set fire to the place.
