Brilliant. What a great mixture. Billy Connolly is just so naturally funny and interesting. David Attenborough has a great sense of humour and has done so much in the animal world. He was clearly enjoying Billy's chat. Thanks so much for uploading this.
I had not heard the story about the Jaguar. And it's so true. I did it myself, one morning I was late to work, and there ahead of me was some posh bastard in a Jag, I put my foot down and managed to pass that Jaguar in my clapped out VW Beetle....it was such a great feeling.
NOBODY BUT NOBODY COULD LIVE WITH BILLY ON A TALK SHOW.THE LIKES OF HIM AND ROBIN WILLIAMS WILL NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN.HURRICANES OF COMEDY AND AWARENESS OF THE REAL WORLD.
I recall being on a plane many years ago and reading James' autobiography. I was laughing out loud and got some very strange looks. For an Australian his command of the english language was masterful. He'll be missed.
R.i.p Clive James lovely fellow, Billy Connolly the funniest man in the world then n still never found someone (Kevin Hart) different type of actor except they take things from life, David Attenborough the best at what he does 🏴😂😂❤️❤️❤️⭐⭐⭐
Hi Bill wife and I have passed you on the Stuwarth highway to Alice Springs, Australia in the 1980s, you were talking on the radio that you just have seen a man flogging a cross on his back like Jesus Christ. We have seen him at Ullaroo Area that day. We were towing a caravan around to opal fields of S A, Qld, and NSW at the time researching for our opal book Rediscover Opals In Australia, 1999.
ken Lane; yeah buts it’s good there’s new books of his I like. In our local book shop had has a large variety Connolly poster which I have first dibs on it 👏👏 So happy, like many met Billy a few times in the Scotia Barr in Glasgow then pubs closed and we would all walk up to the Montrose Folk club, just under a mile away. Not just good times, Man these were time *AWESOME MAN PURE GOOD MUSIC* oh and awesome medical!!! Pot . As Dylan went on to say *EVERYBODY JUST GOT STONED*
You are gloom and doom. Parkinsons has no cure yet...but hes still very active and finding new ways to.do what he wants to do...hes the most alive man I've ever seen!!! DONT dig Billy's grave yet, please. Hes working at his art. 😊
Clive was a great interviewer. He had the gift of firing a, uh, kind of trigger question that would start the guest off. Then Clive would generally sit back and let his guest talk. This was what Michael Parkinson did sublimely well. Parkinson was probably the best ever interviewer, but Clive was a close second.
