[18] [19] He has been noted for the parody tributes that he often tweets on the announcement of a celebrity’s death; invariably posting that he had the pleasure of meeting them at some charity do one time. They were surprisingly down to earth, and VERY funny. After nightclub owner Peter Stringfellow’s death, his tweet was mistakenly reported as an actual tribute by Sky News.In that Lloyd Cole review, which you can see Limmy talking about on his youtube channel, Lloyd Cole said maybe one reason he didn't get into the book was because he didn't know Limmy's work when he read it, and that much makes sense. If you are a fan of Limmy you will get much more from this than someone who doesn't know him. Personally, I am a huge fan of "Limmy's Show", so when he starts talking about the "Millport" sketch or the "Yoker" sketch I know exactly what he is talking about and found it fascinating to see the genesis of the ideas behind these sketches and how they came to be made. If you are not a fan, that may be less interesting, though you can always watch the sketches on youtube as you are reading. After working in comedy for a number of years, he was commissioned by BBC Scotland to create “Limmy’s Show”, a sketch show. It ran for three series and a Christmas special between 2010 and 2013, winning two BAFTA Scotland awards. He returned to BBC Scotland with one more sketch comedy series called “Limmy’s Homemade Show”, with a one-off episode in 2018 and a full series in 2020. I know this review has been more about me than Limmy but one more thing; there's a chapter called Eccy where he heard his friends laughing horribly at him, not as feint paranoid thoughts but 100% absolutely real and right there beside him. Because his friends weren't in the house, he knew it wasn't real soon enough. Well the blood drained from my face listening to this because the exact same thing happened to me twenty-something years ago and it was a major trigger in my breakdown and took many years to realize those voices weren't real and no one said that horrible stuff. I'm grand now! but it took a lot more than twenty minutes to recover from that one I can tell you.
