He is known for his surreal and non sequitur sense of humour. He supposedly derived the name Vic Reeves from two of his favourite singers, Vic Damone and Jim Reeves. He, his father and grandfather are all called Jim Moir, and nearly all shared the same birthday (Vic was born one day earlier). Reeves revealed that within his family he is known as "Rod," to his friends he is "Jim" and to everyone else he is "Vic" stating that it allows him to know whether to turn around when someone shouts to him in the street. While at the BBC, he also shared a name with James/Jim Moir a senior BBC executive. In 2003, he and Bob Mortimer were listed in The Observer as one of the 50 funniest acts in British comedy. In a 2005 poll to find The Comedian's Comedian, he and Bob were voted the 9th greatest comedy act ever by fellow comedians and comedy insiders.
