From only seeing Jim on the UK version of Whose Line, I still want to see the whole documentary. I'm sure the whole thing it's very interesting and insightful.

a very funny, clever & self-effacing man with boundless dignity and not a shred of self-pity in him. and what a lovely, concise tribute paid by Eddie Izzard at the end there.

That was moving. I think Jim Sweeney was always just so funny, so incredible at his work. A legend in the eyes of many.

Whenever my improv loving friend and I go see ANY improv group we'll converse afterwards and pick out the person we liked the best; the one we felt was the "glue" that held the whole evening together and we then call that person the "Jim Sweeney" of the evening. I was lucky enough to see him three or four times with the CSP and he was the best of the best.
