Billy is one of the greatest story tellers of all time. He often goes off on a tangent and has you laughing before the end. You must do his Colonoscopy story.
I've seen that a hundred times and I am on the floor everytime crying and finding it hard to breathe. The way he says 'and she took off'....I'm laughing now thinking about it
I know people who have seen Billy live and then insist that they would never go back to see him again, because it was physically painful from the amount of laughing they did. He's also never done the same show twice, he doesn't work from a script and just extemporises every time he's on stage.
The "windswept and interesting" Sir Billy Connolly. Sadly very ill with Parkinsonism now, but in his heyday he could leave me thinking I would need an ambulance because I couldn't breathe for laughing. Enjoy exploring the many decades of Billy Connolly performances, you two.
His Zebra being attact on the Savana is so funny you will never forget it. Years ago he did An Audiance With Billy Connoly, his Queen on a horse doing Trooping the Colour new national anthem is amazing. He never fales and with Judy Dench did some amazing film accting.
Billy or "The Big yin" as us Scottish call him has been around since the seventies and is famous worldwide. The guy is hilarious and my Dad said he went to school with him which me and my brother didn't believe. My Da like many older Scottish guys did a fair bit of bullshitting when telling stories. And one day me & my Da were in The Smiddy bar in an area of Glasgow called Partick when who walks in but Billy Connolly himself. He ordered a drink, recognised my Da and greeted him. I got introduced with my mouth wide open and the look on my Da's face when Billy sat at a table to read his newspaper was priceless. A kinda "fawking told you so" look on his face, grinning like a Cheshire cat.😂
Very funny guy, who was huge in his day, and not a bad actor too. My favourite being his surprisingly touching role of being a servant to Queen Victoria whilst she was in mourning, who was played by Judy Dench, in the film Mr Brown.
Welcome to SIR Billy Connolly. Scotlands greatest comedy legend. Since retired due to his Parkinson's,but regarded as a National Treasure.here in all of the UK
I think I first saw him in Muppet Treasure Island when I was 11 or 12. Much later I found out he was a sort of stand-up god since the mid-70’s. He is now my absolute hero of comedy. There’s so much gold on RUclips. I highly recommend ”Old lady on the bus” and ”Worst pain known to man”. I like you two. Keep it up!
Young man, get that lovely lady insured because if you are going down the Billy rabbit hole, she is going to burst laughing at some point,. Seriously, love you two, keep 'em coming, and enjoy Billy, he is one of the best ever.
He starts telling u a story and completely veers off it but he always gets back the story he started with,he’s a genius ,im so glad he belongs to us 👍🏼🏴
Billy is legendary , ive been following his comely for 40 years, he has a mountain of comedy standup and movies hes in, he was in the Hobbit aswell as Dain Ironfoot
I saw Billy many years ago, when I was 8 months pregnant, and I laughed so hard u thought my waters would break! I think there were a few people around me, who were also a bit worried about sitting too close to me! Amazing guy.
Billy (now Sir Billy, and deservedly so) is basically God in my native Scotland. Most people focus on the later stuff, but Billy Connolly Bites Yer Bum is a classic. Ditto Billy and Albert, An Audience with Billy Connolly and The Pick of Billy Connolly.
Billy is a national hero. From childhood in Glasgow, to shipyard welder and boilermaker, to Army Reserve Paratrooper, to banjo player and folk singer. He transitioned from singing songs and telling funny stories in between to full stand up comedy. Made some incredible TV travel series , been in a wide range of movies and created some very surreal art.
His wife is Pamela Stephenson, Lady Connolly (born 4 December 1949) she is a New Zealand-born psychologist, writer, actress and comedian. She moved with her family to Australia in 1953 and studied at the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA). After playing several stage and television roles, she emigrated to the United Kingdom in 1976. Parts in television shows including Space: 1999, New Avengers, The Professionals and Tales of the Unexpected preceded her breakthrough role in the satirical sketch show Not the Nine O'Clock News (1979-1982) alongside Rowan Atkinson, Mr Bean, Mel Smith and Griff Rhys Jones. Not the Nine O'Clock News might be worth reacting to.
Billy Connolly is a comedy genius. His delivery makes it seems like he is talking to you directly like you would in a bar Check out his Wilderbeast sketch
Billy Connolly made his name as a superb comedian in the 70's and 80's but he may be more well known by some for his acting career in some major blockbusters. He also had a number of chart songs and more recently in his 80's took up being an artist. An amazingly talented guy.
Billy is one of the finest stand-up comedians that has ever been on stage. He's a story teller of the highest order. He's also a pretty fine actor. He even managed to act opposite Judi Dench and look just as good as her, in Mrs Brown (a film I highly recommend).
Favourite short Billy joke. I met this guy the other day, he had a huge dog. He said "he can smell fear". I said "I'm not surprised, I just shit myself".
My country man is the funniest man on the planet 👏🏻👌🏻 and the whole of Scotland will be in mourning when he goes ❤️🙏🏻🏴 long live the BIG YIN ❤️🏴
Billy Connolly is one of the greatest of all time. I've been cracked up by his stage performances since I was a child in the 1970s. He should be a UNESCO World Heritage Site!
Billy is the best uk comedian of all time. And maybe THE best of all time. Crazy some people haven’t heard of him, as others have said so much stuff for you to watch from him. There was a dvd that celebrated 25 yrs of Billy’s stand up, it was released in the 90s. Also his tour of Scotland 🏴, all great viewing.
I love watching you guys reacting to comedy especially Jess's laugh, it's contagious! Billy Connolly is the best, he'll make your sides ache with all the laughing. Another comedian you should take a look at is Lee Evans, different kind of comedian but hilarious too 😂
I can’t believe you guys have never heard or seen Billy Connolly before? He’s a comedy legend, best ever! I once saw him in Newcastle in the 90’s and he was on for 2’30” and when I left my ribs were sore and my cheeks were all burnt off the tears, I was whimpering at the end rather than laughing 😂
See that over there...rabbit hole...dive in and enjoy as he will have your sides hurting with laughing so much....THE GOAT of British comedy...and one of THE great comic story tellers
Billy Connolly and Robin Williams are two of the greatest comedians who also have had great careers in movies. Both brought originality to the stage and screen. Billy's stories on wildebeest, holidays with his family and stories on his life before stand up are hilarious.
As so many others have already said, Billy Connolly is a masterful story teller & in truth transformed British comedy in the 1970s with his ‘observational’ humour. You will now find so many British comedians have followed in his footsteps with this style as opposed to the one line, wisecracking American style of humour. Not only is Billy a master of comedy, he’s a fantastic actor & has played supporting roles in great films such as ‘Mrs Brown’. You could also react to his appearances on ‘Parkinson’, a great chat show of the 70s, 80s & 90s. He’s had the likes of Tom Cruise in stitches on the show. Do not pass up this opportunity to explore this Gold Mine of talent. Best wishes as always
Billy Connolly is, I believe, the best stand up ever....or certainly among a handful of the best. Brilliant storyteller and very unlike almost any other before him in his style. A naturally very funny man. A Scottish legend. A world legend. Try "mood bracelets"
I had the pleasure of seeing Billy live in the 90s he was absolutely hilarious from start to finish. We laughed so hard for so long I am sure we missed some of his jokes. The same when I went to see Lee Evans 🤣🤣
He is fabulous we have seen him live a few times he is sooooo funny
Billy is one of the greatest story tellers of all time. He often goes off on a tangent and has you laughing before the end. You must do his Colonoscopy story.
OMG, that is an awesome story. I laughed so hard I nearly suffocated
Billy Connolly has some great stories you should look at the old lady on the bus.
You took the words right out of my mouth 👍🏼
And the Glasgow airport terrorist attack. And the Incontinence pants from an Audience with Billy Connolly
@@MattWhite-vh6xh I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything of his that I didn’t like to be honest 🏴🔥💯👍🏼
Yeah, he doesn't really tell jokes, just hilariously funny stories.
I've seen that a hundred times and I am on the floor everytime crying and finding it hard to breathe. The way he says 'and she took off'....I'm laughing now thinking about it
I know people who have seen Billy live and then insist that they would never go back to see him again, because it was physically painful from the amount of laughing they did. He's also never done the same show twice, he doesn't work from a script and just extemporises every time he's on stage.
I’ve seen Billy live, I’d go back in a heartbeat! I’m a sucker for punishment. 😂
I can relate to that. Saw him at the Pavillion in Glasgow many years ago and my jaw ached for days! Utterly brilliant
I can agree,I saw him live about 30 yrs ago,I can’t remember anything he said but god almighty it was funny 🤣👍🏼🏴
I saw him at the Hammersmith Apollo in the 90's and the bastard nearly killed me.
What did he say... No fucking idea!! 😂
Billy Connolly is a legend, no ifs or buts, I've been watching him forever, he can do no wrong.🤣🫶
Billy is the G.O.A.T. of British comedy. So much for you to enjoy.
WORLD comedy
If this was your first Billy Connolly,
you're in for a fantastic ride .
Billy is the best story teller ever.
Billy Connolly is a national Treasure
His full length 'An Audience With Billy Connolly' is the funniest thing I've ever seen.
The "windswept and interesting" Sir Billy Connolly. Sadly very ill with Parkinsonism now, but in his heyday he could leave me thinking I would need an ambulance because I couldn't breathe for laughing. Enjoy exploring the many decades of Billy Connolly performances, you two.

Billy is 81 and has been around for decades. Where have you been.
Billy & Robin Williams are the two best story tellers, no one comes close to those two legends
A lot more Billy please
An Audience woth Billy Connolly is an absolute treat from start to finish. Need to watch all of it though as so many of his stories meander
Billy Connolly's- Incontinent pants routine is an absolute must:)
That's my favourite Billy story, cry laughing every time, and have seen it several times
@@denisecoen2820and terrorist attack at Glasgow Airport
His Wildebeest story and the Incontinence Pants one are ones to see. He's one of the greatest comedians there has ever been andever will be
Those, and the two Glaswegians visiting Rome for the first time!
Welcome to SIR Billy Connolly. Scotlands greatest comedy legend. Since retired due to his Parkinson's,but regarded as a National Treasure.here in all of the UK
Look up "an audience with Billy Connolly." It's a one-off gig packed with of-their-time celebrities in the audience.
I think I first saw him in Muppet Treasure Island when I was 11 or 12.
Much later I found out he was a sort of stand-up god since the mid-70’s.
He is now my absolute hero of comedy.
There’s so much gold on RUclips.
I highly recommend ”Old lady on the bus” and ”Worst pain known to man”.
I like you two. Keep it up!
Love Billy please one day do Billy Connelly incontinence pants ❤
So many classic Billy to get into, the greatest comedy story teller of all time and an absolute legend. So many classics, please check out more
Young man, get that lovely lady insured because if you are going down the Billy rabbit hole, she is going to burst laughing at some point,. Seriously, love you two, keep 'em coming, and enjoy Billy, he is one of the best ever.
He starts telling u a story and completely veers off it but he always gets back the story he started with,he’s a genius ,im so glad he belongs to us 👍🏼🏴
Thats mild for Billy, easily the best comedian to come from these shores.
He's also a pretty good actor and has an extensive list of TV shows and movies to his name.
Billy is legendary , ive been following his comely for 40 years, he has a mountain of comedy standup and movies hes in, he was in the Hobbit aswell as Dain Ironfoot
To me, Billy is the BEST! And always will be!! :D

We had his album as kids my dad used to pretend he wasn't laughing but he roared with us.
BC is the best !! NZ

He transitioned from singing songs and telling funny stories in between to full stand up comedy. Made some incredible TV travel series , been in a wide range of movies and created some very surreal art.
Best storyteller of them all.
Try out another bus story of his called Old Woman on the Bus.
My throat hurt I was laughing so much.
You will too.
Go for the deep dive with Billy, he is one of the greatest.

Hands down, the best Billy Connolly bit is the one about incontinence pants.

I recall when I left senior school in 1975, I bought Bill's double album. He's been around a long while.
