Internet funnyman Limmy returns to the Fringe, one year on
from his storming, sell-out Fringe debut of 2007, with a brand new
Limmy's Show. But, unlike last year, Limmy hasn't been working hard
to find things to put into his show. He's been working hard trying
to find things to take out... |
The reason being that this year's Limmy's Show was debuted at the
Glasgow Comedy Festival in March, to a rapturous reception from three
sell-out audiences at Oran Mor. It doesn't sound like much of a problem,
but that show was 90 minutes long. The Fringe is only 60. So what should
stay and what should go?
Should he keep the bit where he analysed that email he got from Dave
Gorman? The email where Dave, in Limmy's words, "comes across as a
total, patronising fucking wank� What about those videos described by
The Scotsman as "not only extremely funny but rather beautiful� Like
the one where Dee Dee from the World of Glasgow podcast starts getting
bad vibes from his mirror. Surely there isn't enough time for all those
videos?
Then there's the bit where he used his mobile phone as a remote control
to control his laptop to trigger a sound effect that got a heckler to
shut up. You had to be there. Surely that bit must get kept in?
And the bit where he tried to work out who the fuck Suggs is meant to be
in those Fish Fingers ads.
And the bit where he gave us his chart rundown of the top 5 things he
hates, one of which being Twenty's Plenty signs, cos they don't rhyme.
Well, whatever stays and whatever goes, the Fringe audience can be sure
of a show crammed full of the dark, negative and sometimes evil comedy
that fans of Limmy have come to enjoy.
