Billy Connolly seems to be a real down-to-earth & caring man. What a lovely, warm human being!💖

I'm so surprised but pleased that you niw know this. Having followed the gorgeous Billy for decades, apart from his being THE number one comedian, I've always loved him for his humble, polite, down to earth manner. Just love the man.

I was a little annoyed that they didn't question why his great grandmother was in India in the first place, but I needn't have worried, its covered here :)

My great grandmother's maiden name Mary katherine Doyle born 1880. Could they have been related? Hmm?

Very much possible. Your Great Great Grandfather must have been from British Indian Army! 1857 to 1890

interesting how first struggle of freedom in India changes to Indian mutiny in Britain

@sirbattlecat 4 года назад

Seeing as the british had the power, I guess it's technically a mutiny. I don't blame the Indians for carrying out the mutiny though.

Well she did say "as they would call it", referring to those soldiers.

@linusp9316 3 года назад

It's called a mutiny because the Indian soldiers mutinied.. it's literally what happened, not a belittling term. Indian soldiers employed by the British mutinied and fought against them. If it had been non-soldiers, then it would just have been called a rebellion or something.
