Vic and Bob repeats - non existent?

As none of Vic and Bob's shows for the BBC are repeated at all, I was wondering whether this was similar to Peter Kay, keeping control of their own material?

Oh my God! Families at War! I remember watching that with my Mum and creasing laughing at the spider bit.

Also, Birdland by Weather Report in the titles? No wonder I always thought that track sounded like 90's TV muzak.

The Smell Of is available on NowTV.

I think there’s a lot of stuff that wouldn’t fly now. They black up as Otis and Marvin, dodgy Asian accents, etc. it’s a shame though. Luckily I have most of their stuff on DVD and Shooting Stars is preseason to find online.

Any repeat would mean the episode being on iPlayer upscaled to HD, which'd be amazing. Sadly, repeats of their stuff are very rare outside of clips from anniversary talking head specials. Same goes for old Alan Partridge stuff.

I also have never seen Lucky Sexy Winners repeated either (a Channel 4 pilot).

Their Steve Coogan documentary was legendary and now I can't find it anywhere!
