'Am no fae here': New Yoker mural for Glasgow comedian Limmy
Glasgow-based artist 'Tef' posted a video of them completing the artwork on the side of a derelict building next to the Yoker Ferry.
Refreshing the existing mural, which had begun flaking off, the new work shows the comic's face in the vacant Dee Dee expression with a pink background.
The quote from the episode where the weed-dulled wanderer takes an ill-fated trip to Yoker accompanies the portrait, declaring: "Am no fae here!"

In episode two of the second season, he spontaneously takes a bus to the mysterious location of Yoker.

He boards the bus and travels on the top deck to the area where, once he leaves the safety of the bus service, he has an existential crisis.
In an internal monologue, the character states that he's 'on the outer reaches here' before he enters a shop, Hair by Les Porter, and asks the owner if his name has always rhymed with Yoker.
One local stopped to grab a photo of the mural (Image: Colin Mearns) Once the words leave his mouth, he turns and scarpers, thinking that his 'cover is blown' and that he's about to be chased and attacked by some 'mad zombie pirates'.
The sketch has become a famous, quotable piece of Glasgow comedy, with the full clip racking up over 2.6 million views on YouTube to date.
Fans of Tef and Limmy were quick to comment on the new mural, one said: "Absolutely class bro, Limmy go get a pic there."
Another commented on the upgrade: "On a different level now!"

Three savvy ways to save money on buying kids' toys this summer
TOYS keep kids entertained and give parents a few minutes of welcome peace during the summer holidays. But splashing out on new kit quickly blows a hole in your budget. 8 Despair not — there are lots of ways to get them playing on the cheap . . . TOY LIBRARY: At these places, parents can rent toys, puzzles and games sure to go down a treat with your little ones. From Sussex to Glasgow, toy libraries are now springing up around the country. You can expect to pay a small fee for rentals, but it is a much cheaper way to access expensive gadgets than buying them new in the shops — and helps cut down on piles of unused toys at home. FREEBIES: Kids grow up quickly, leaving toys that were once favourites ready for a new home. If you know the right places to look, you can pick up plenty of freebies from parents trying to clear out their homes. The YoungPlanet app connects people to hundreds of parents getting rid of unwanted toys, as well as clothes and other stuff. You can make requests or simply browse what's available. Sign up to selling groups run for local parents on Facebook Marketplace. Alongside sellers there are plenty of people happy to give away toys and other items. Parents are scrambling to The Range to nab new kids' toys - there's inflatables, swimming pools and up to 40% off SCRUB UP: Think outside the box to get children re-engaged with past favourites they might have lost interest in, providing new playtime at no extra cost. Fill a small tub with warm, soapy water and ask kids to give dolls or other toys a bath. Use some chalk outside to create a race track to follow with toy cars. Or fill a large tray with some flour and add diggers or dinosaurs. Or simply lay out their toys in a different way to spark interest — setting up toy scenes, rather than having them tidied away in boxes, can rekindle enthusiasm.
