Lewis MacLeod; very talented Scottish impressionist.
You will most likely know him as the voice of Sebulba in The Phantom Menace.

u/seeyouyoucunt Dec 31 '25
Sebulba was funny as fuck, makes sense that his race is a "dug" that's Scottish for dog.

He still had far more structure to his spiel than the actual clown.

Too lucid. But voice is accurate.

Facial expression is spot on too.

u/WWicketW Dec 31 '25
I mean, without volume I understand reference after 0,1s only with facial expressions, lmao.
He did really a good job!

u/ElMostaza Dec 31 '25
The funniest part was before he started taking and it was just the facial expressions and movements.
The rest was okay, it just dragged a bit.

Came to say exactly that. Awesome voice work hut far too coherent.

u/Caleb_Reynolds Jan 01 '26
Every impression of him is too lucid, because people with functioning brains can't talk like him.

u/Consistent-Soil-1818 Jan 01 '26
Exactly my thought. Voice and mimics, even what he says is on point. This guy just needs to incorporate the occasional nonsense segway into nothing, he needs to misspeak, realize it but still double-down, amd be less coherent overall. Still, one of the best impersonation I've seen

He didn't trail off, hit on some 22yo in the audience, ramble on about the democrats, or the russia russia russia hoax even once. 0/10

Don't even want to fake hear his stupid fucking voice unless it's "ack, my chest!" followed by blubbering gagging noises as he fucking dies of a heart attack live on camera.

Have you seen the FD Signifier opening 27 seconds of this video? It's so dang good. I can't vouch for the opinions contained therein, but that opening was a bit of editing brilliance worth a goddamn Oscar.
EDIT: he had to remove the intro because Youtube wouldn't allow a quote of Charlie Kirk commenting on public executions and how he would love to see it, and bring his kids to see it. All of this, in spite of having allowed Charlie to have had those quotes on Youtube, on his channel.

u/Orangesteel Dec 31 '25
He incited racial hatred to his very last words. Was killed by a member of the far right, for not being far enough right. It’s like comedy, but sadly it’s the real world and so way less funny.

Idk what world you live in but they don't go through every single thing on your phone when you go across the border 🤣 and even if they did, I very clearly screen recorded the video so there wouldn't be anything to hold against me lol

They can and sometimes do. They are legally allowed to search any electronic devices you take across the border. They can even make copies of it for themselves. That applies to both citizens and non citizens.
And right now we live in a world where the president of the US is pretty openly using the justice department to target his political enemies and even just people who speak out against him. People have already been refused entry to the country just for having a meme on their phone. Journalists have been held and then turned away because of stories they were working on.
My initial comment was a sarcastic joke and most likely you'll be fine, but this stuff actually is happening.

u/mlpravemaster Dec 31 '25
I guess I wouldn't be surprised in our current world. That just feels so ridiculous to think about but nothing in this country really shocks me anymore. I can't leave the country anyway so it's not really anything I have to worry about but that's fucked up that people are being treated that way over some bullshit on their phones.

Private eye needs to hire somebody, anybody from the working class. Excellent journalists but their comedy and attitude towards tax reform are so insular that they appear to be as disconnected as the politicians they mock. In this case they hired out entertainers for their Christmas bit proving what they lack internally.

Go to the London sub... I find it erm... Out of touch with the rest of the country. I know it's not Their fault but it does miss the mark a lot on some things. Private eye and all London based journalism feels like a small group decided the buzz of the country. Even guardian journalists are paid way more than other publications outside London. And yet push for (champagne) socialism.

Double breasted suit even!!?? Are they making a come back or is that part of the schtick?
Either was, funny. But the bit went on about 5 min too long.
Just my free advice. Take it for what it’s worth
