In the world of comedy there is no one quite like Billy Connolly.
Put simply, through sheer talent and force of personality he changed the face of British comedy forever.
He’s been called the Beatles and Jesus of comedy by his peers and an immature ‘manure mouth’ by the leader of the Scottish Zion Baptist Church.
Say what you like about him you can’t deny everyone wants to know him.
Weaved around private interviews, these two specials find Billy returning to Scotland to reveal the influences and motivations that turned him from being Billy Connolly the welder, to Billy Connolly the Big Yin.
Please just take it all down ! These media posting are just causing way too much trouble for his family ! Billy Connolly doesn’t need the added media stress. He just wants everyone to leave him alone !
Hi Cindy – this documentary was done with Billy’s blessing and participation.
