Ted was a patterdale terrier mix rescued from a dog’s home in Surrey in 2013 when he was about six months old. He was the cherished pet of Lisa Clark, the executive producer of Gone Fishing. His presence on the show provided not just entertainment but also warmth as he often curled up beside hosts Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse during their fishing adventures.

His final appearance will be in the forthcoming ninth series. Over the years, Ted’s charm won over audiences, amassing an impressive 282,000 followers on Instagram. He even published a book titled A Pawtobiography in 2024, which became a Sunday Times bestseller—quite an achievement for a dog.

Ted’s contributions to Gone Fishing were recognized when he received the Lifetime Achievement Award during the Christmas special in Cornwall in 2025. Fans will remember him not only for his antics but for how he brought joy to viewers across generations.

Reactions to his passing have been heartfelt. Lisa Clark remarked, “Ted was a much-loved family pet as well as a treasured companion to Paul and Bob on Gone Fishing.” Bob Mortimer expressed his sorrow by stating, “So very, very sad. Lovely Ted, the best companion and the greatest little chum. Going to miss him so much…” Meanwhile, Paul Whitehouse reflected poignantly with, “Bye bye Ted, old friend. He wasn’t a dog; he was a species all of his own.”

Ted’s legacy is one that transcends mere entertainment; it embodies companionship and love between humans and their pets. As fans mourn his loss, they also celebrate the joy he brought into their lives through laughter and heartwarming moments.
