Vic and Bob plan a movie set in a hotel
 

Vic Reeves has revealed he and Bob Mortimer are planning to make a film together about life in a hotel.

The comedy duo are moving on from Shooting Stars being axed and are aiming for the big screen, but insist they won't be taking influence from Fawlty Towers or Channel 4 documentary The Hotel.

Vic revealed: "We're doing another show which is top secret and we're writing a film. It's probably going to be about a hotel and some people trying to make a hotel work."

He added: "Its going to be nothing like Fawlty Towers, it's going to be more like a Mike Leigh film."

And the former I'm a Celebrity star said he wasn't inspired by reality TV show The Hotel either.

He said: "Bob's seen that, but I haven't seen it. It's not inspired by that, we had the idea a long time ago and we're kind of working on that at the moment."

And as for the death of Vic and Bob's long-running panel show Shooting Stars, he holds no grudges.

Vic said: "It's good to have a full stop and then move on. We finished on a high and we're moving on nicely."
