I met Coisty on Byers Road when i was 15, he was with his wife and Davie Dodds. This was 1989 He is just the way he is on screen. I said hello and cracked a weak joke and he laughed 😊
This is actually quite a funny story…just not the way he tells it. He did the same with a story of Gazza making a sandwich in his house about 4am in the morning. It should have been hilarious but it’s like he doesn’t understand why it’s funny and doesn’t focus on the main parts.
Is the Scottish sense of humour different or something? Come to think of it they've kept the tremendously unfunny Billy Connolly in employment for ever so long.
