Latest News About Vic Reeves

I don’t have live access to the latest news right now. Here’s a quick summary of Vic Reeves (Jim Moir) coverage in recent years, based on publicly reported items up to early 2025-2026:

• Career status: In 2025, multiple outlets reported that Vic Reeves stepped back from TV work and that his long-running partnership with Bob Mortimer had effectively paused, with Reeves pursuing other interests such as painting and quieter projects. This marked a shift from high-profile TV appearances to a more low-key creative life [Express, Mirror, 2025 coverage].[2][8]

• Health notes: Reeves publicly discussed having a vestibular schwannoma (acoustic neuroma), a non-cancerous brain tumor that has led to unilateral deafness in his left ear. He described ongoing monitoring rather than surgical removal and has spoken about adjusting his activities accordingly. This health matter has been a persistent part of media coverage since it was disclosed in 2021 [Express 2021; BBC/medical commentary cited in later articles; braintumourresearch.org].[3][10]

• Swansong/creative projects: There has been discussion in trades and entertainment press about Reeves’ potential “swansong” projects, including the idea of a feature film tied to his performance persona, though practical details and timing have shifted over time. These reports reflect a pattern of Reeves transitioning away from regular TV work while exploring other media forms. [British Comedy Guide piece and related entertainment reporting].[1]

• Public activity since 2024-25: Interviews and outlets in 2024-25 show Reeves focusing on personal projects, painting, and quiet life with his partner, with comments suggesting the Vic and Bob era had largely concluded commercially, though occasional nostalgia-driven looks back appeared in media retrospectives.
