Glasgow has a Billy Connolly on every street corner, it’s a city full of hilarious guys with stories to tell, Billy was just one of the few who was smart enough to take his gift out into the public domain and make a name for himself, he is one of our greatest gifts to the World. We salute you Billy, you’re a god but always one of us!
@Doug M: Glasgow has somebody on every street corner making jokes about a hostage who will soon be brutally decapitated by mindless thick thugs using the political situation to give them an excuse to carry out slaughter? What a hideous place then...
@@il9237 What the hell are you talking about? The OP may well be in the realms of fantasy, but your comments appear to be groundless, apart from your own prejudices
@@il9237 We're hosting COP26 at the moment but you won't see any protesters blocking roads. Think of the Glasgow Airport attack, wee Smeaton isn't a one of. If you do see someone stuck to the tarmac, it will be a glue sniffer that has fallen over.
Thanks for clearing that up, I thought that you actually did mean it in a biblical sense until you clarified that you in fact do not love him in that sense.
"knowing" in the bible is the sex euphemism. "Love" in the bibe is more like some twisted stalker's crush, especially when God's involved, like the bit where he decides to torture and slowly kill his own son just to show us all how much he cares! some Buffalo Bill reasoning there
This man, Robbin Williams, Dave Chappelle and Bill Hicks walk in to a bar...... No joke, i just wish it would have happened, truly the funniest people who ever lived.
Billy Connolly on you tube got me through the 1st lockdown when I was out each day delivering PPE around London for 10-12 hrs a day.(google took me through central london as the quickest route frequently as there was NO TRAFFIC that was the fun part) Coming home and watching Billy was a GR8 way of switching off.
Childlike glee is the closest I can get to an accurate description. The jokes are just naughty enough & just clean enough for an 11 year old, or an 81 year old.
Ivan the terrible,heard it when i was quite young,best ever. Pure magic billy. Lived next to a weegie who moved in next to me in killie every bit as funny. My mate brian haddow,utterly unconciouse comedian.
Wow I'v never been so early 🤣 first like & first comment 🤣 I think that Billy Connolly is one of the funniest men alive 😊 I have only been fortunate enough to see him once but it was awesome, I loved every minute of it 😎👍🏴
I went to see two plays of his at the Pavilion "with a personal appearance by the Big Yin". The "personal appearance" turned out to be a hilarious 15-minute spot before the first play and about an hour and a half after the second one finished. I left the theatre with sore ribs and a sore face from laughing so hard. He is some guy and some comedian!
My all time favourite Billy joke, which is obviously up against some stiff competition. I have told it many times, always crediting the Big Yin for it! 😄
Grrrreat man. One of those jokes that needs to take a wee sec to "spread" to the entire audience or I am NOT quite awake yet! I sent it to my husband, we've seen him, alas only once, and now that he is "retired"....my husband will get it as will his brother. In our family we refer to certain seemingly idiotic but spot on jokes as "oh it's a William". I was about to urge those who haven't seen him TO GO, GO YOU BLOODY GREAT TWIT, GO!!! Well I have Part 1 of his autobiography and am hoping for Part 2 for Christmas- a dear, dear, man. He seems to be taking his illness in stride. I truly wish I could hug this "daft" warm, good-hearted, hilarious man- but I can be one of those daft eejots who fly solo, waving their crystals, playing, Tarot Solitaire- if you don't know that monologue, "my daughters wanted MOOD BRACELETS " IOW, I can pray for him, a hippie I remain, NO I don't own a tarot deck and my "crystal" is acrylic! Part of an old wind chime- like Billy, they send out good vibes! BUY THE BOOK. A fan. Reply time! Namaste. ( really, sincerely, I need a plane to fly...) Z from Ontario
This man is a real national treasure, i love billy! I hope so much, that he would tell the one, with the jewish Rabbi wich play secretly golf on the Sabbat and god & Jesus spotted him true the clouds.... One hole in one after another and Jesus said " father, Look at this Rabbi...a hole in one....on the holy Sabbat!" "Ahhhh, son, to whome he could tell it"
Dear Billy, I have related this story on another YT site...a few years ago...But seeing as this one is "Yours", I'm going to repeat it: Many moons ago.... (I hope that doesn't get the woke brigade all jerking off.) I was on a ship and waiting in my Radio Room for the Traffic List to start..... And I was sat there, reading your book: The title escapes me...but it was a good read and I was at the point where you were working as a welder in Nigeria in the oil industry....and ...on a night off....a taxi driver offered to take you you a Topless Bar in Port Harcourt. How could you refuse! You arrived at the bar...miles from the town...in the bush... and there it was...in all its glory: A bar with no roof! And where was I reading this particular chapter? In Port Harcourt of course. It amazed me at the time....and still does. Stay well Billy..... Take care. Thanks for the Million+Plus Smiles along the way.
I would have had use of a hitman for years and if he could be found there would still be a handy contract for him, according to current terms. How does one apply ?
Knew immediately it was an English audience when they didn't laugh at "Two guys on a golf course... PLAYING GOLF..." English humour is decent when compared to the rest of the western world but still pales in comparison to Scottish
Are you claiming to be a upstanding moral person who has never spoken out of turn possibly upsetting others? No-one's saying what he said was right because it wasn't, but to to point fingers at him as if he's the only person on the planet who screwed up is just another example of why the world is so screwed up itself and let's not forget this medium and others like it don't always help. So, playing devil's advocate here for a second, why did Mr Bigley and others like him assume it was *safe* to go into a high risk area with supplies in of all things a truck convoy thinking they'd be absolutely fine? Didn't they get the memo about the psychopaths they would likely encounter? Strange how we always fall on the side of the victim, maybe we should start questioning their logic if the fear of death doesn't make them sit up and pay attention. I will add though I have little information about the security of said convoy, but I'm sure it amounted to zero. Red flags anyone?
There’s no one to touch him such a naturally observant man who can throw you a line and reel you in to a world full of laughter.
Billy Connolly is one of the best of his generation. Such an excellent talent.
I love Billy Connolly so much. The one comedian guaranteed to make me laugh till I cry. Just genius 🤣🤣🤣❤

Thank you billy for all the laughs god bless you
Billy I have loved you for many years(not in the biblical sense), you are a legend and a true true scholar.Greatest comedian ever.
It is good you explained it was not the biblical sense, might raise some eyebrows

I think there might be many in this forum who sense there’s more to this story than meets the eye.
In My Opinion Billy Connolly Is The Greatest Stand Up Comedian Of All Time. 🏴
One of the greatest for sure.
In Your opinion.
The legend! My absolute favorite comedian i grew up listening to him!! Love this man to bits!!
Superb comedy - with very few expletives needed!
I thought I had heard/seen them all, but this one was new to me, "saving you a grand". Comic genius, thanks for posting this clip.
I was chuckling until that line. It did me in.
The up and down moments just make it
The best comedian ever!!
😉😄😃😁😀😊 ❤ you Big Yin and Keep Safe XXXX
No matter how many times I hear this joke it has me in stitches
The man , the genius, the legend .....
The Big Yin the very best of the best😂😂
WOW, just incredible
i recently subbed and having billy stand up segments pop up on my feed every now and again it amazing.
me too!
Same here, it's the best 😎🏴
Brilliant mate, never seen/heard this before 🤣🤣
It's an old joke, but I've not seen this version.
This man, Robbin Williams, Dave Chappelle and Bill Hicks walk in to a bar......
No joke, i just wish it would have happened, truly the funniest people who ever lived.
George Carlin too.
OMG this is sooo funny 😂😂🤣🤣🤣👍💙
Makes my life better hard put in words just feel happy when see him..especially when am rough 😂😂

Nobody makes me laugh as hard as the Big Yin!
Thanks
The true greatest of all time. Never will any be his equal.
They call the people on here the lunatic fringe. Here's your reason why.
Saw him walking down the street with orange flowery pants on.. in auckland nz.. of all places..
Ivan the terrible,heard it when i was quite young,best ever. Pure magic billy. Lived next to a weegie who moved in next to me in killie every bit as funny. My mate brian haddow,utterly unconciouse comedian.
Billy is the greatest ever and didn't even mean it...
If i want a laugh, Billy does more than that. He has my sides splitting
Yeah righ ,so hows your butt feelin lol
I really enjoyed him in the movie THE LAST SAMURAI

Yeah, he was hilarious making a joke about a kidnapped man who was about to have his head butchered off by a bunch of murdering scum.
@@il9237
A situation he could well have avoided but chose not too.
I've already had this conversation with someone else here.
@@il9237 if you don't like it why bother watching.
You're the first person on the board and you come out with that crap? Unbelievable.
The punchline was standing out a mile away, but it was the actions that had me in stitches!😆
Funniest man on earth!!
Even though I worked out the punchline before the end, I was still creased up
My all time favourite Billy joke, which is obviously up against some stiff competition. I have told it many times, always crediting the Big Yin for it! 😄
Liar.
RIP Billy.
Billy isn't dead yet 🤔🏴
The best comics seem to giggle at themselves
That's bollocks.
"It's the way you tell them"

I want to know if he said a grand or not
I walked into the pro shop the other day and ask them where's the kilt section was so funny
I couldn't understand what he said at the end. How was he going save him a grand?
By putting a bit away each month.
My best has to be (i only see clips here) the menu in ireland and the potatoes
You're a freeloader.
My dad always said I here you are intercourse champion lol 😂😂😂

Looks like there's 2 big yins in this
Imagine Billy and Jimmy Carr on the same stage...

You mean assassin. Hitmen is a term invented by Hollywood.
