Education

Peattie studied at St Martin's School of Art.

Career

He produced the cartoon 'Dick', which ran in Melody Maker, and the Celeb comic strip which has been running in Private Eye since 1987. Both were collaborations with Mark Warren.

Celeb

Celeb first appeared in Private Eye during May 1987.[3] In that magazine, the strip is credited to "Ligger", a joint pseudonym for Peattie and Warren. Whilst several real people are named or caricatured, the eponymous "celebrity" is a fictional person, Gary Bloke.[4] He has several character traits common with those of contemporary real-life celebrities.

Gary has a daughter named Pixie Frou-Frou, first mentioned in November 1987, when she was stated to be five years old.[5] Her name was possibly inspired by that given by Bob Geldof and Paula Yates to their eldest daughter Fifi Trixibelle Geldof (born 1983); it is noteworthy that their third daughter (born 1990) was named Little Pixie Geldof.
