A TikTok video has gone viral and has stolen the hearts of many as one Balamory super fan received a video message from his idol Miss Hoolie.
Oisin Roberts Browne, 16, has autism and cerebral palsy, and absolutely adores the hit children's television programme which is still loved by many despite no longer creating new episodes. Oisin’s Uncle Eric tried to make his nephew's day by tracking down interactive Balamory toys or memorabilia and, after being unsuccessful, he decided to take matters into his own hands.
Eric decided to reach out to Scots actress Julie Wilson Nimmo, who played Miss Hoolie, on Instagram to see if she could help. And he was blown away when she responded and went one step further than he asked her to. Taking to TikTok to share the outcome, Eric told his 454k followers: “My nephew has cerebral palsy and he is absolutely obsessed with a show called Balamory, ‘what’s the story in Balamory wouldn’t you like to know’.
