We had the privilege of seeing Billy when he hit London, Ontario. He put on a three hour show without a break. We never laughed so hard in our lives, and I’m not exaggerating. The funniest man on the planet.
I'm a Londoner and I'm with you Michael. I have seen Billy perform live 3 times and he makes me laugh until I hurt. And I grew up with some of the funniest comedians in the UK - Billy is still the funniest.
So true. I'm an expat Londoner and also pretty old. I remember Billy as a folk singer. He was bloody funny even back then. As a comedian he s the best; he makes me laugh until I hurt.
I love Billy, been a fan for years, he's hilarious, one of my grandfathers was from Scotland, he died when I was young, so I didn't know him well, but I remember the voice, I could listen to Billy for hours

If this is the Rob that i think it is, the rob with a gap in his teeth that's a big man u fan from Glasgow, its Teri! Could you contact me, kinda important, have a look ast your facebook or message me via RU-vid i guess, thanks xxx
He invents it all, as he goes! Nothing pre=planned, just all this humour tumbles from his mouth as he sits there. He does some leg comtorsions on this video, and I wondered if he had ants in his pants. I fell off a chair in the past, as I was bent double with laughter, and had a pain in my side with pleasure watching him. Thanks Billy for cheering me up on mutinle occasions.
Billy Connolly went to Australia and was asked at immigration if he had a criminal record, he replied: "I didn't think ya still needed one". He had to hire a lawyer to get him into the country !!
Sir I do not know who you are and I have never seen your show BUT you made Billy Connolly laugh. Brilliant, something to be proud off and put that on your CV.
I saw Billy Connolly do stand up back in the late 70s early 80s it was about an hour and a half of non-stop talking and jokes and just telling life stories that were hilarious
Non PC genuine and just a normal bloke who can make the mundane hilarious if you ever looked for an example of how to live your life and not give a proverbial **** about what the rest of the world thinks Billy is the man
I am having arthritic cramps as I watch this, I am laughing the pain away, medical smoke could have something to do with it, love Billy, if there is one person you want to be stuck in the lift with ( elevator ) it would be him
Such a wonderful person Celtic the Scottish and the irish will always get along Such a talented person after everything that has happened through out and Pamela a wonderful Aussie wife also as talented Take care of him
i love his songs especially wellies. that song was played at my granddads funeral as our family is Scottish every time i hear that songs it brings back memories.
Son of Hecate I had a vision of that symbol, I was being sacrificed and I had memories of other people being sacrificed and that was the end symbol and I could shapeshift and control matter
Came up on auto play while I was away from the screen. I swear I thought the intro was from Kermit the frog until he didn’t make a high pitched “yaaaaaaaaaay” as Billy walked on.
The funniest man ever to grace our tv screens and an absolute gentleman to boot .....love u Big Yin god bless u and your family ....youv made me and ma whole family laugh till we cried many many a time ....an absolute .magnificent man We love you xxxxxxx
I saw him on that bike when I was a kid in my home town in Scotland 😂 if the three wheeler purple bike didn’t give it away that it was him his purple beard did.
Hubby and I were watching Fairport Convention in the Half Moon in Putney 35 years ago when I stepped hard on a toe in the dim light. Turning to apologise to the unfortunate victim, the dulcet tones of Billy Connolly replied 'nae bother lassie' as he smiled sweetly at me. A lovely guy.
I came here to see Billy, but that host actually had some amazing quips to into Billy's work! The one about letting his wife go out to buy a feminist documentary, that was actually golden! xD
The host was very good, even had Billy laughing a couple of times, especially the comment you refer to. Didn't try to upstage Billy, but threw in a few good lines of his own.
Don't think I ever remember seeing this host on TV, but I actually like him, and he knows how to properly joke back and forth, without seeming like he's trying to force it or be condescending. The reply he had to billys bit about the feminist documentary was gold. Almost like billy's joke was actually the setup and the hosts reply was the punchline. Bring this guy back with a more mainstream show, without all the political bullshit, and it would probably be 100x better than colbert or kimmel.
First guy I ever seen wearing a CP Company Mille Miglia in World Tour Of Australia, stalking the sod 😂😂😂 “Aye” brilliant hearing my mother tongue on American TV.
Cat1981England Watt invented the separate condenser, it was Newcomen that invented the steam engine. But TV and Penicillin (among MANY other things) also came out of Scotland. You're welcome 😏🙂
What ever happened to Mike Bullard ? Really liked his nite show. Last I remember he crashed his bike, but recovered. Billy did a really good documentary touring the Artic.
Mike Bullard got tangled up in the court system with his ex a few years ago; he got dinged for making harassing phone calls to her. I think the whole ordeal knocked the wind out of him and made it harder for him to get work.
