Billy Connolly was seperated from his first wife Iris because she was an alcoholic, he was a single dad with custody of his young son Jamie and daughter Cara when he met Pamela Stephenson. He got a divorce from Iris, and moved in with Pam who adopted his two children; they had three daughters of their own, Scarlett, Daisy and Amy, and lived together for 10 years before marrying in 1989. Dispite the divorce, Billy still did everything he could to look after his first wife, buying her a house and paying her bills and medical bills and looking after her when she was dying. When she had passed away, he said in an interview that there was no hatred or bitterness there, just that it was very sad she had alcoholism but she was still the mother of his kids and he respected and cared about her. Billy is a super nice person, an incredibly kind man. He was diagnosed with Parkinsons disease a few years ago and now lives in Florida with Pam bless him - His books are great, the first was an auto biography called 'Billy' and was written by his wife Pam, and the other two are called 'Windswept and Interesting' and 'Tall Tales and Wee stories' - I've got them all and they're all fabulous.
Billy was a heavy drinker too and he admitted he and Iris were not good for each other. He gave up drinking after he met Pamela, in fact he credits her for being the catalyst he needed to get sober. Pamela was born in New Zealand , her family moved to Aussie when she was 4 and she moved to the UK to further her comedy career.
Billy has several houses including a castle in Aberdeenshire 😉
Billy was an alcoholic at the same time, though he was not diagnosed as such. Pamela got him to stop drinking, she threatened to leave him if he didn't stop. Billy immediately stopped drinking, and the rest is history. He'd realised that if Pamela left, he'd be alone with a bottle which could prove fatal. If he had carried on drinking he would be dead, and we wouldn't be having this conversation. In a quite recent interview Billy said he felt something was wrong as he was forgetting what he had done the night before when he'd been out for a drink.
The water quality in the UK is top notch. If you fell ill, it wasn’t because of the water.
Have to agree....comparing UK tap water to water from a Spanish island just don't work. BTW, it's pronounced 'I-beetha'
Not anymore sadly.
Scottish water. Not the uk.
The UK, Finland, Switzerland, Iceland, the Netherlands and Norway are tied in first place with 100% safe tap water. Spain is now in 15th place (used to be really bad) and the US is 26th. Source: Yale University Environmental Performance Index.
Exactly...
His mustn't include Southern England tap water then, it's awful! Most places have filters on there system. North does have much nicer tap water though. 👍👌
@corbuzchristi365 it's hard water in the South and generally soft water in the North...
@@glastonbury4304I know this, I live in Manchester my friend! 👊
The water here in Scotland 🏴 is better than evian. Beautiful icy cold water from the tap. Canni beat it.
Who else has uncontrolled laughter with a fart joke? Just the best.
I was first watching billy Connolly but then diverted to watching Jody as your face and expressions were priceless. Nice reaction guys ❤❤❤
I’m glad I was entertaining for you. 😂
That is really creepy.
Billy met Pamela on the set of the British 1970/80's comedy show "Not The Nine O'clock News", as satirical show which poked fun at the current news events of the day. She was portraying Janet Street Porter, interviewing Billy as himself. Classic comedy at it's finest. The show also starred Rowan Atkinson (Mr Bean), Mel Smith (Deceased) and Griff Rhys Jones. Another classic from that show is "Constable Savage".
Billy met Pamela long before that.
As others have mentioned, it's HIGHLY unlikely any British tap water made you unwell. I've never known anyone to ever get unwell from it during my lifetime, bottled water is probably slightly less safe. The travel itself is most likely the issue. I know in the past we were always advised not to drink Spanish tap water if on holiday, I imagine it's not as bad now, but for a time there definitely was a risk associated with it. And this is definitely one of his older stand up routines, so it would have been at a time we were warned about not drinking the water in Spain
They are from a different country and have a different gut biome.
Clean water will still make you ill if your gut biome isn't used to it
@@Perseus-kw3xc I do understand that in some cases, but UK water is pretty much entirely free of anything bacterial, not overly chlorinated, certainly less than the US regulations upper limits. It really is unlikely it was the water. I've never heard of anyone from the UK having issues with US water for example, and the safety guidelines are more strict here.
While it may be slightly less polluted than Spanish, if you come from another country and drink Scottish water, you're just likely to have an intolerance to it as any other. Reason we don't get sick from it is because we have a tolerance to it.
@@Perseus-kw3xc That is the first sensible comment on this board I've read so far.
@@irreverend_ The poster wasn't talking about bacteria in the water, but in the gut. People from another country may get stomach problems, which have nothing to do with safety guidelines, but the gut biome.
A lot of Americans actually suffer with the change in food quality, especially over longer periods of time, but they usually get ill when they go home...
Our water quality and regulation is some of the best and tightest regulated in the world...
I listened to this for the first time on my phone at work. I nearly injured myself trying not to laugh so loud and hard!
Billy Connolly has revealed that he's doing “great” amid his battle with Parkinson's. The comedian, 80, from Glasgow, was diagnosed with the degenerative disease in 2013, after a doctor spotted him walking strangely through the lobby of a Los Angeles hotel. He was also diagnosed with prostate cancer ON THE SAME DAY, but he’s made a full recovery from that.
Billy's 'blue-ringed octopus' story is very funny.
Pamela Stephenson is a comedian, actor, qualified psychologist, also an author and she wrote the autobiography of Billy Connolly called Billy.
Pamela wrote the book about Billy, called Billy. Only Billy Connolly can write his autobiography.
You wouldn't have got sick rfom drinking tap water in the UK. It's cleaner/purer than what you get in the US, and in my whole life I have never heard of anyone getting ill from drinking it. One thing we can agree on though, Pamela Stephenson is gorgeous. As a teenager I fell in love with her when she appeared on Non The Nine O'Clock News, which I believe is where she met Billy.
It’s not so much that. Lots of people do get sick drinking the water from other countries as they have different bacteria or other things in it that the persons body isn’t used to. Doesn’t mean it’s bad water. Just different. Like when the Europeans introduced several new diseases to the Native Americans. They weren’t sick because their bodies have become accustomed to it.
@@BoringReviews Like I've been saying, some people from other countries may get sick, not because the water's bad, but because of the individual's gut biome, which in some people can't tolerate a country's water.
This gets me every time,billy Connolly is the best 😂
Great reaction thanks it was such fun watching your expressions.
Spanish water is definitely different to British water. Ours is clean and drinkable.
The water in this country is probably had a better quality than American water. I did some work for the Waterboard for about five years We even take the nitrate out of the water before chlorination, because it can be carcinogenic. The big water treatment plants have chemists on site constantly check in the water. They’ve also got inspectors going round taking samples every day from different taps around the area which are also checked the quality. It could just be the upset of a long journey and different environment. You have to be careful anyway, as you get older, you get wet farts and dry dreams😂😂😂😂. We’ve all farted and had a follow-through😂😂😂
"wet farts and dry dreams" 🤣🤣
I did the research as I was there. The water was described as great quality. But that doesn’t mean that it didn’t get me sick. As you said they control certain things from being in it. I could have still gotten sick as it is a new type of water that my body wasn’t used to.
You can be affected by a change in the water you drink even if the water is perfectly safe if you have a delicate constitution that way. I know someone who lives in the south west of England who gets a dicky stomach if they drink the water in the north of England. I think the water is harder further north.
I have been caught short at 2 in the morning in London. Nothing I could do. I had to throw my jeans etc away. Thank God for a Ricky Gervais sketch. I cut the corners off of a shopping bag and tied it around my waist. Luckily I had a great coat on and people wear shorts alot in England so people never blinked an eyelid at my bare legs. Also I had a good friend who bought me wipes, track suit bottoms, socks etc. That's a true friend because we had no accomodation. 👍. I did see the funny side of it though. I thought it was hilarious. Powerless. 😅🤣😂
Totally can relate Nick, takes a few lessons to learn not to trust a fart on certain occasions, particularly overseas. I was just lucky that bathrooms in Asia usually have the basin and tub close (in hotels) if it's coming out of both ends. But I have never imagined what it would be like if I was in that situation with a family! Thank god I was a single man left to my own misery back when I was living in SE Asia. All it takes is a few sips and you're losing kilograms by the minute. A couple of times a year I'd get back home to see Mum and the family in Australia and get the "wow you look fit, lost some weight?". I just wouldn't bring up a recent 24 hour hellish experience in Thailand/Philippines/Vietnam etc and say "Thanks, yep it's all about diet".
Try being a soldier and having this happen, middle of nowhere and supposedly tactical (secret). The spade patrol becomes very interesting 😂
Watch Billy Connolly baby monitor, brilliant 👏
Hi Jodi & Nick . In England some of us call it The Two Bob Bits Kind Regards
Or the Tommy Tits.
Some of us? A few of you you mean.
Same happened to me in Benidorm. I didn't know you weren't meant to drink the the tap water.
There are toilts around most towns and cities here in the UK. The free ones are not always open but there are coin operated ones too
Billy was told in same week he had prostate cancer, deaf and have parkinsons. He lives with Parkinsons wears hearing aids and cancer in remission
I left school in 1975 and Billy had a double vinyl album out which I bought. From what I heard, he doesn't have a fixed routine that he does, from one night to the next his gig was completely different.
Probably the greatest sketch any entertainer has ever done. All the best parts come at 5:05, 6:22 and 6:53. Cheers 🥂 for this guys ❤ 😊
i Have to disagree. It was a story not a sketch. Also the Monty Python crew produced sketches superior to this many years earlier, they were actual sketches. As did Ronnie Barker. Billy is my favourite comedian, but I can't ignore the achievements of other people.
@@irbennett We can call it what we like but let's say it's probably the best routine Sir Billy has ever done. That's a discussion settled.
@@HaydnGuite In my not so humble opinion Wildebeest is Billy's best routine. It's quite brilliant. Billy himself has said he thought Wildebeest was the best thing he had ever done. It's something he should be rightfully proud of. The last sentence is me talking.
I spent most of my Summers in the 1990s in Ibiza, I'd go 2 or 3 times a season.....and end up stumbling from Club to club and waking up in strange hotel rooms and hedges....But at least I always drank bottled water 😀
In my twenties I spent six months traveling around India on a low budget. Tummy troubles are unavoidable, and you just hope that's the worst thing you get. You tend to always know where the nearest *usable* bathroom is, though.
Brilliant Billy
in a weird twist to this particular video and topic was I went to see a Michael Caine dramedy movie in '85 called Water. which Billy (unknown to me at the time.) played an activist named Delgado.
Water the film was awful. Michael Caine only became involved because it was filmed in the Bahamas.
Funny, but my personal feeling as a Brit is that we're a lot more comfortable with "toilet humour" than other nations (may be wrong), but I find it funny, and we can all relate to "uncomfortable situations" one way or the other. Bridesmaids film. Dress fitting scene ...... FABULOUS 😅😅😅😅
New Zealand and Aussie enjoy toilet humour too. I get a stomach ache from laughing at Billy's Ibiza and colonoscopy stories and I've seen them many, many times.
We British invented toilet humour.
The Big Yin is the greatest comedian that has ever been.
This was so funny, You went there with this one, ATB Wayne UK.............
I've been to the UK eight times and the USA twice. In my experience, public toilets are easier to find in the UK than in the USA. In fact, in most of the places I have visited in western Europe (ten trips), public toilets are easier to find than in the USA (though in the past payment was needed at some public toilets, particularly in Italy). Having said that, fast food shops are the best bet just about everywhere, which is one of the few things that McDonald's can be thanked for (I have visited 38 McDonald's in 14 countries on five continents, as part of my World wide tours of museums, art galleries, churches, restaurants, pubs/bars, supermarkets and fast food establishments. Thankfully though, I haven't needed to visit the smallest room in every McDonald's and never as a result of consuming their products).
Fart jokes, a staple of British humour.
Dont forget the Ice..... Beware.
Ibiza is pronounced Ibeetha. I have been to Chile a couple of times and their water supply is perfectly clean but it is so rich in minerals from the Andean Mountains if you are not used to it it can give you an upset stomach!
Micky Flanagan is a huge Billy Connolly fan, and openly admits to stealing Billy's material (more of a "tribute" rather than outright theft! Hahaha)
The worst toilet situation is when your a distance from home and you can hold it in,the minute you get to the front door all hell brakes loose,Can no longer hold it.
Ive travelled a lot to a lot of different countries and I never ever drink water from the tap or eat salad however nice it looks!!
In half the states in America you can't drink the tap water the richest country in the world so best not criticise others
Wow. Half of the states? Where did this fact come from? The truth is the people that live in each state and city for that matter have built a tolerance for any water they drink locally. So they actually can drink it.
@@BoringReviews I was going to ask the same question. It sounded like the guy made it up.
Billy met Pamela (an Australian) on the British TV show "Not the Nine O'clock News". Pamela's actually a practicing psychotherapist now...
You ought to search out some NtNON videos you'll see where Mr Bean came from, Smith and Jones and a lot more...
A similar toilet story to the colonoscopy one!
Colonoscopy was more refined.
I live in Ibiza and we don't drink the water unless it's boiled. I'm not sure there are bugs in it, but it just tastes bad. By the way, the 'za' of Ibiza is pronounced 'tha' in Castillian Spanish, not 'za'.
U.K. tap water, as with all the tap water in Northern Europe is completely safe.
This sketch is at least thirty years old. Although when I lived in Ibiza you couldn't drink the tap water in Ibiza old town.
Its pronounced Ibitha a z in spain is a thhh sound. Nice video 👍
Billy Connolly is in a more recent but similar RUclips video entitled Colonoscopy. It is extremely funny.
And better.
Ibitha. That’s how you pronounce it. And that would’ve been a long time ago. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with our tap water.
That IS pretty horrible...it's a horrible situation...I'd say walk away but don't give any accusing looks...great reaction anyway keep them coming!
Eye-Bee-tha
I live in Spain...Hardly anyone drinks the tap water..Its perfectly ok, but it has a tang to it.. Bottled water is what most use, and its so cheap. about 75cents for 8 litres..
I can assure you English tap water is very clean and I can only assume you must have picked the bug up from something else.
The z is silent in ibiza
This would’ve been 50 years ago when we started to go to Spain en masse.
It almost certainly not the tap water, but more to do with the fact that the US uses plastics and other junk in food. The UK and Europe have banned a number of food products from the US. If you were to look at ingredients and compare, you’ll see Europe only allow actual fruits not bits of plastic coloured to look like fruit. Porridge type products are a good example of this. It’s more than likely your system not used to having proper natural products. Even MacDonalds use more natural products than the crap used in the US.
Gut biome, that's the problem.
😂😂
The Z is pronounced as TH .
You mean you had a touch of the Niagara Falls ? another popular destination for Brits is Lanzarote that us a volcanic island even the locals don't drink it
The big yin is 80 years old.Ans his wife Pamela is from New Zealand.
Billy actually has Parkinson's....His wife is Pamela Anerson a top Psych in the US!
14yo playing bball alone at a park I walked 15min to get to.
I farted much like Billy described, but after the devestation
of fart number four I had to walk back home. (1980. no cell phone.)
in December. wearing my new jogging outfit nana bought me
for Christmas while new wearing sneakers I just bought with my
Christmas money. I mentioned the shoes because they had to be
washed too! that 15min walk there was a much longer 30min walk home.
Best reaction channel on RUclips at the moment... Try peep show
Appreciate this. Very humbling. Sure thing.
@@BoringReviewsYou should never be humble for being good at what you do .
I love the chemistry between you.
Even I put on a Scottish accent when I see Billy and I am Scottish 😂😂 I put on a more Glasgow accent
Eeeee beee faaa...please react to dave allen teaching kids time
Your body did not react like that to UK water. More likely, it was the change of diet. By the way, the UK also has toilets everywhere.
Interesting how you know what didn’t make me sick without even knowing me.
@@BoringReviews...I have to agree...In the UK If a person Is ill from drinking water Irrespective of wether you know them or not It Is definitely not from drinking tap water.
Three words. The gut biome.
This is why there's loads of tall hedge rows. Is the UK. Just incase. Worst experience was a coatch load when i was around 24-25 oñ a tour of france all 18 of us were court short. I tell you
That’s coach (not coatch) and caught short (not court) lol
Honestly I went to Morocco and ended up with Gastro Enteritis.... Seriously, I could shit through a straw!
Id reccomend watching billy talk about suicide bombers, youll find it on google video if not here, highly recommend..
Billy Connolly, now lives in Florida and is suffering with Parkinson
Errr where does MR.Nick get his T shirts from?
The store. Lol. Local clothes stores. Some were bought online
Farting is like breathing, if you don't do it you'd die!!!!!!!!!!!
Except when you breathe your breath doesn't smell like shit.
Ibiza is pronounced as follows, eye bee tha
You must be about the tenth person on here who told them that.
Very good! It's pronounced "Ibitha" by the way, just for your continuing education
Ibiza prounounced eye beeth ah
11th.
One shouldn't drink tap water unless it's explicitly labeled with a sign saying: 'Drinkwater' in the UK at least.
What are you talking about? I’ve never seen a tap with a label saying drinkwater, and the tap water here in the UK is completely safe to drink.
I live in the UK, too. There are basically two systems of water pipes in the UK. One for hot & cold water and one for drinking water. I used to drink cold tap water and even hot tap water and never came to any harm. Public buildings, e.g., hospitals, courts, etc., still make this distinction.
@@reinholdmueller4882 I think you’re right and wrong. Water travels through mains water pipes, this is regardless of whether it’s going to be used for hot or cold water, all water in the mains pipes is provided to the same standard. I’ve never seen labelled taps in a hospital but I’ve not spent much time exploring this 🤪 so I asked my missus, who’s a senior matron in a very large hospital, she confirmed there are taps labelled as drinking water because in a building like a hospital it’s possible to have taps that are hardly ever used. Obviously such taps could have water that has sat for weeks or even months, so they are not labelled as safe to drink from. She also said that some hospital departments will have water that is even cleaner than that provided by the water company, usually because those departments will have patients who are severely immuno compromised. I guess this is the same as in your house, if you have a tap that is never used you should run it for a while before drinking from it.
I will add that she thought this was a strange question to ask so rang me up to ask why I wanted to know, she now thinks I have too much time on my hands so I can cook tea tonight. I’m blaming you.
Rubbish, I've been drinking tap water for years.
I doubt you were sick because of the tap water, more likely something you ate.
Gut biome.
UK tap water is as good as bottled , bottled water is a rip off .
My ex girlfriend took me for a curry on my birthday a few years ago, then a drink afterwards but the bar was a gay bar, within 25 mins of that meal i was sweating and needed to go, i ran upstairs and just made it but, the toilet door was broken, was the only cubicle and the lock was broke, the door was quite a way from the loo so i was splatting while at full stretch trying to hold the door shut with all these lovely characters trying to get in, i am straight and found the whole experience traumatising, the gf was peeing herself laughing when i came back down sweat soaked.
I Beeeeth aaa, on a side not im going to kill myself today but Ryan dor the video
Billy beat cancer but he has parkinsons
Get Billy and the Glasgow terrorists on next 😉😂 x
Ibiza is pronounced Ibitha.
I can assure you that it was NOT the tap water. Our water supplies are the most rigorous. You ate something. That would be my guess.
It's amazing how many medical experts there are on this board.
Where's my dog?
In your bed waiting for you.
