My great grandfather showed me some early Limmy clips on his three frames per second Cinematron what he got down from the attic. Wonder if it made it into the show. Might tune in.
He isn't growing a beard he just keeps forgeting what he was doing between looking in the mirror and turning to grab the razor from the shelf. Not long left now.
I was watching down in England and I just couldn't understand a word of it. All the timing was off because I was just thinking what is this dumb jock saying
The show's writers don't comprehend that you could create video on the internet before UA-cam because they are not old enough to remember it themselves. DV Tapes, Capture Cards and software like Flash and Pinnacle, hosting, and not embedding videos on your website are long forgotten. These 'List Shows' are made by people in their 20s and researched by grad students who can find everything they need to know about television personalities and the technology of industry at the time because there are plenty of books and online resources. While the older producers are only experienced the world of conventional television and are unaware of the creativity of the early internet. What people like Limmy created in the early 2000s is pretty much undocumented because it was nothing more than a sub-culture with amateurs and bedroom editors just cocking about - Now that approach is being fine-tuned, professionalized and put on the tele. Though what they say about filming stuff on your mobile phone for creative content is true, if you want to create something with higher production quality and efficiency, you still need the equipment and crew, albeit skeleton. They need to take that into account with Limmy's stuff.
Well said mate, Limmy was in there so early and his stuff was innovative and very funny. The snowball throwing hand and the virtual keyboard theat plays " you. are. a. fuckin. cunt " no matter where you start, were some of the smartest things on the Internet at the time.
All I can think is, 'Holy Shit! Does it matter?'. But no, he's right, the program about celebration of Scottish sketch comedy should have detailed the technical intricacies of 2000-era DVR and micromedia flash
Hi Limmy, been a fan since your chunk days - fuckin heeyaw! It's good to hear you were mentioned on that show - didn't see it myself. So they should, some of your characters have left me sore from laughing ( Dee Dee gaun tae the moon is a favourite that I show everyone who will listen ). I work in health care and have heard " the methadone was worse " line from one or two reformed users - well observed. Loved your tv shows but can't quite follow what your doing with the UA-cam stuff - mebbe I'm too auld to get it. Regardless I'm glad your still working and hope it brings you a decent living, good to know you're out there.
Those docs are pish - instead of making new programmes and supporting new artists, let's just watch old videos and get people to talk shite about stuff made in the past. Yes, I referred to Limmy as an artist.
I love that Brian includes Limmy show just in the middle of a list of classic scottish sketch comedies/sitcoms at about 1:10. Like he acknlowdgedes he's a legend but downplays it by putting himself as just another part of a list of the classics. He didn't even attempt to either put himself down or put himself on the top. I just think that's a sign of a decent fuckin' bloke.
Limmy vs the Scottish comedy establishment : who's gunnae win - who's gunnae win? I watched the programme on Iplayer after seeing this yt vid and quite enjoyed it. Shame you weren't on in person though, Mr L. Out of interest, were you invited to appear and declined? Or not invited (their loss)?
Aye well, I was gonna, no so as I was about to, anyway what was the, what? they were tryin' to, so like I, it wisnay, but it was, but it was oan a sinclair C5, no a ZX spectrum, but I canny be arsed anyway.
Oh wow, I only realize how much weight he has lost after seeing him here. Who would've thought a bar of chocolate every night before bed was bad for you?
Granted they were incorrect in that specific case but generally speaking thesedays Limmy is known (across the world) more for his internet content than for his television works, so when they were speaking broadly about him their point was "Here's a comedian who can produce comedy media with common tools"
Making a show filmed with a proper camera look like it was filmed with a cheap smartphone sounds like a thinkly veiled criticism of Limmy's cinematography.
I'm pretty sure they just clubbed all the "Internet stuff" together. They use cameras that do 4K broadcast quality and cost 100K with make up artists and producers and 3 cameramen and a sound guy. Anyone that doesn't have that set up, to them, is just an "internet guy".

As a viewer of UK telly I knew nothing about the programme in question

don't believe Limmy, he did it with his nokia flip phone 1.3 megapixel camera
Can't believe the BBC have broadcast something that was not 100% factually correct, must be the first time ever.
@Randy marsh Thought i recognised you from somewhere
They say men can't become women. We know better mate!
EDIT: Thanks for the gold kind stranger!
But WOW!! SO happy we can now make the same quality content with our telephones! Or our phones and some Tascam thing or whatever he said.
Yeah respect where it's due. It's on a par with demoting him to bedroom dj from headliner!
If whoever made that doc was a fan they'd have done nothing but slag him off to give him more content to react to
I didn't think it possible, but Limmy is becoming even *more* scottish as he ages
They've done him
Went to Edinburgh to see the Pet Shop Boys? How can you expect to be taken seriously?
Especially the "went to Edinburgh" bit 😯

He is growing a beard. It looks so strange, but it might grow on me.
You’ve got nothing to worry about, beards aren’t contagious.
I think it looks distinguished
I'd say it will grow on him instead
wait until he starts wearing the kilt and tossing cabers.
@@decorumlopez9147 Why, might a caber grow on me?

limmy started by uploading his skits to youtube from his apple iphone
They got the resolution but have they got the patter?
Eww England for the New Year!?! Ye mad!?
Man discovers that the BBC publish any old tosh
Thought Lim would've understood after they published Limmys Homemade Show
I am sure there is not an email for comment collecting dust in his inbox.
wise man beard on him,it suits him even though hes not fucking nearly wise .
that was my attempt at norn irish talk
Don't stand for it Limmy

I want to watch it.
Was it on BBC Scotland?
Criticising a compliment, classic Limmy.

'Ooh, the banter!' is fae Chewin the Fat, no Still Game ya berdy walloper.
£6m in the bank and he’s moaning about a 5 grand Sony camera, man of the people
Aye Ugandan Dollars
Lost it all in the Darien scheme aye...

Safe to say this video won't make the cut.

True, this Irish guy is known across the world since Daily Dose Of Internet had a clip of him saying purple burglar alarm
Well, I wouldn't call Adobe Flash common tools... 😁

Is this difficulty in explaining anything part of his act?
Nah he’s only gotten worse, truly watching the Hindenburg in front of our eyes in slow motion

Wrong way... Down a one way street.
