I love Billy, been a fan for years, he's hilarious, one of my grandfathers was from Scotland, he died when I was young, so I didn't know him well, but I remember the voice, I could listen to Billy for hours
So true. I'm an expat Londoner and also pretty old. I remember Billy as a folk singer. He was bloody funny even back then. As a comedian he s the best; he makes me laugh until I hurt.
We had the privilege of seeing Billy when he hit London, Ontario. He put on a three hour show without a break. We never laughed so hard in our lives, and I’m not exaggerating. The funniest man on the planet.
I'm a Londoner and I'm with you Michael. I have seen Billy perform live 3 times and he makes me laugh until I hurt. And I grew up with some of the funniest comedians in the UK - Billy is still the funniest.
Sir I do not know who you are and I have never seen your show BUT you made Billy Connolly laugh. Brilliant, something to be proud off and put that on your CV.
Non PC genuine and just a normal bloke who can make the mundane hilarious if you ever looked for an example of how to live your life and not give a proverbial **** about what the rest of the world thinks Billy is the man
If this is the Rob that i think it is, the rob with a gap in his teeth that's a big man u fan from Glasgow, its Teri! Could you contact me, kinda important, have a look ast your facebook or message me via TH-cam i guess, thanks xxx
The funniest man ever to grace our tv screens and an absolute gentleman to boot .....love u Big Yin god bless u and your family ....youv made me and ma whole family laugh till we cried many many a time ....an absolute .magnificent man We love you xxxxxxx
i love his songs especially wellies. that song was played at my granddads funeral as our family is Scottish every time i hear that songs it brings back memories.
Yha. but they are always fuckin HILLARRIOS. A TRUE. Down TO EARTH. Guy and always interesting. He is the fuckin BALLS nightfencer gatekeeper. Hes one in a million or or more like 1 in a billion. As soon as hear his voice i am instantlly captivated. WOW
@@henrys3629 THATS BECAUSE HE IS FUCKIN LOADED WITH ENERGY. AND ALWAYS THINKING A H EAD FOR A NEW JOKE. HE IS A GENIUS AND HAS ANTS IN HIS PANTS. IF YA DONT GET TGE WORDS OUT AND ON PAPER OR ON FILM YOU FORGET THEM. HE IS A TRUE PROFESSIONAL. MY FAVORUTE COMEDIAN SCINCE JERRY LEWIS. MANY YEARS APART. THEY HAVE THE ABILITY TO THINK QUICKLY. AND GET IT OUT FAST. BEFORE ANYONE ELSE. KNOWS WHATS HAPOENNING. WOW. NIGHTFENCER GATEKEEPER
Billy Connolly went to Australia and was asked at immigration if he had a criminal record, he replied: "I didn't think ya still needed one". He had to hire a lawyer to get him into the country !!
He invents it all, as he goes! Nothing pre=planned, just all this humour tumbles from his mouth as he sits there. He does some leg comtorsions on this video, and I wondered if he had ants in his pants. I fell off a chair in the past, as I was bent double with laughter, and had a pain in my side with pleasure watching him. Thanks Billy for cheering me up on mutinle occasions.
Such a wonderful person Celtic the Scottish and the irish will always get along Such a talented person after everything that has happened through out and Pamela a wonderful Aussie wife also as talented Take care of him
I saw Billy Connolly do stand up back in the late 70s early 80s it was about an hour and a half of non-stop talking and jokes and just telling life stories that were hilarious
Don't think I ever remember seeing this host on TV, but I actually like him, and he knows how to properly joke back and forth, without seeming like he's trying to force it or be condescending. The reply he had to billys bit about the feminist documentary was gold. Almost like billy's joke was actually the setup and the hosts reply was the punchline. Bring this guy back with a more mainstream show, without all the political bullshit, and it would probably be 100x better than colbert or kimmel.
I love the way American talk show hosts try to inveigle themselves into the homes of British celebrities - but the celebrity never actually invites them once the show is over! With the exception of Tom Cruise……
I am having arthritic cramps as I watch this, I am laughing the pain away, medical smoke could have something to do with it, love Billy, if there is one person you want to be stuck in the lift with ( elevator ) it would be him
Son of Hecate I had a vision of that symbol, I was being sacrificed and I had memories of other people being sacrificed and that was the end symbol and I could shapeshift and control matter
Came up on auto play while I was away from the screen. I swear I thought the intro was from Kermit the frog until he didn’t make a high pitched “yaaaaaaaaaay” as Billy walked on.
I came here to see Billy, but that host actually had some amazing quips to into Billy's work! The one about letting his wife go out to buy a feminist documentary, that was actually golden! xD
The host was very good, even had Billy laughing a couple of times, especially the comment you refer to. Didn't try to upstage Billy, but threw in a few good lines of his own.
Cat1981England Watt invented the separate condenser, it was Newcomen that invented the steam engine. But TV and Penicillin (among MANY other things) also came out of Scotland. You're welcome 😏🙂
Hubby and I were watching Fairport Convention in the Half Moon in Putney 35 years ago when I stepped hard on a toe in the dim light. Turning to apologise to the unfortunate victim, the dulcet tones of Billy Connolly replied 'nae bother lassie' as he smiled sweetly at me. A lovely guy.
I saw him on that bike when I was a kid in my home town in Scotland 😂 if the three wheeler purple bike didn’t give it away that it was him his purple beard did.
The greatest comedian to ever come out of Scotland, along with Craig Ferguson. So sad to hear about his Parkinson's diagnosis, which is even apparent even here, over a decade and a half before it became known. On another note, how in god's name did Mike Bullard of all people manage to get Billy of all people to appear on his show??? His usual calibre of guest use to remind me of complete unknowns, and even mediocre ones at that!
For gods sake, stop calling Billy a comedian, he is a force of great living life. If you want to have a great life, take on Billy and try to be like him. Billy is the most awesome human being that ever lived.
Love Billy allways great to hear his stories, looking in from Ireland 🇮🇪
A statue in Glasgow for Billy while he's still with us would be brilliant, I and most of Scotland truly love him,
He kind of feels like a favourite uncle you wanna hang out with....my affection for this man..a true legend!
Yes. I wish he was one of my uncles
I love Billy, been a fan for years, he's hilarious, one of my grandfathers was from Scotland, he died when I was young, so I didn't know him well, but I remember the voice, I could listen to Billy for hours
Every time Billy goes on a talk show the host is always in stitches!!!! The man is an absolute legend
He always has me in stitches 😄
Without a doubt.
So true. I'm an expat Londoner and also pretty old. I remember Billy as a folk singer. He was bloody funny even back then. As a comedian he s the best; he makes me laugh until I hurt.
Can you imagine having Billy Connolly as a dinner guest? You'd never want the evening to end. Amazing talent!
...I would starve to death!
You would probably choke to death from laughing while you try to swallow your food.

Billy is an absolute legend...... Just being himself on a talk show is all he needs to do....!
Ive loved him for decades..Can play manybroles and still be himself..What a great interview...God speed y'all!
Sir Billy Connolly is the embodiment of a true Scottsman.
One 't' is enough.
Absolutely brilliant lol could listen to Billy all day
Billy is such a down to earth man,it must be great fun working with him.Sorry to hear he’s unwell.
I did not know until now, hope it is not serious. :(, aeyy absoultly Awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@maryroberts6085 quite serious, he's been unwell for quite a bit. He has parkinsons disease. Very sad.
I've seen Billy numerous times and he only gets better every time ,keep well Bill your the all-time greatest, best wishes Dan in Ireland
Cheers for posting this …. Brilliant. The host is so good just a wee feed here and there outstanding.
God bless Billy Connolly - might not have left in this world, we will have lost a great, great man! Will always love you, God bless Billy!!
You can never interview Billy as you wont be able to ask a question for laughing, Brilliant hahahaha.
Love Billy haven't seen this before but he's at his best as usual there will never be anyone to top him the mans brilliant!!!!!!!!!
Sir I do not know who you are and I have never seen your show BUT you made Billy Connolly laugh. Brilliant, something to be proud off and put that on your CV.
Brilliant as usual....and a great interviewer. They make a good team.
Legend frm my Home town Glasgow 🏴 we ❤ you Big YIN
Seen him in the late seventies. Comedy genius. I was crying with laughter. So called comedians of today are not in the same league.
"I allowed my wife to bring me one." - Dude nailed it.
Have always loved Billy. Probably the most beloved Scotsman in the US next to Sean Connery.
And Craig Ferguson
Better than Sean Connery imo
Billy said to Sean " you've done all right, for a guy with a speech impediment " 🤣🤣🤣
Our Billy keeps it real. Who doesn't love the man. The greatest ever, a talking Hatchet. Ha Ha.
Stevie in Scotland.
Billy is brilliant in all ways... there is no one who will ever be better.
He reminds me of Robin Williams, RIP, so spontaneous.
Scotland’s National treasure.
Billy is a Global treasure! 😊
Emma MacDonald I stand corrected.
Emma MacDonald He should be Knighted also.
Definitely!
Non PC genuine and just a normal bloke who can make the mundane hilarious if you ever looked for an example of how to live your life and not give a proverbial **** about what the rest of the world thinks Billy is the man
A gem. I'm always happy to find some new (old) Billy. Thanks for uploading.

I had headphones on and phone was in my pocket and it randomly started playing. I legitimately though Kermit the Frog was doing the interview.
Rules for interviewing Billy, sit back and enjoy
Great point 100%
Billy and Robin Williams. Both are a case of "grab the coat tails and hang on!" Two legends.
@You are correct But q
Letterman sucked and came off spiteful and threatened by Billy

Such a wonderful person
Celtic the Scottish and the irish will always get along
Such a talented person after everything that has happened through out and Pamela a wonderful Aussie wife also as talented
Take care of him
Pamela is a Kiwi from NZ. Not Australian.
His take on the royals is spot on😂😂😂😂😂 I remember him touring Australia in the 90s on his three wheeler motor bike, with a purple beard.
One word Wonderful Thank You Billy.
A beautiful human being. ❤️
Love Billy from the first time i saw him . Met him he is just as is no matter who he speaks to ..no one mesures up to him .
The man is a legend
When the host can make Billy crack up, that's the kind of talk show I want to watch
THANK YOU
Thanks for posting this, made my day!

Bill and Bernard Manning are two of my favourite gut busting eye watering comedians
first time I saw him was in Muppet's Treasure Island. hell of an actor!
"I tend to die a lot in movies. I died in a muppet movie ffs". Billy Connolly
Very, very few times in life the interviewer has a funnier joke than any of Billy's. Kudos to this man
And Connoly took for what it was, a funny joke. Most would be upset about it.
The fox one?
@@theor7990 Rented video I would have thought.
The great Billy Connolly! He is the best ever!!! 😁🤪😂👌👌👌👌👌
is he supposed to be funny?
@@shadyzxzx not to simpletons
I remember when Ol’ Billy had a very naughty act...now with his older age & glorious long, gray hair he’s become very dignified you know!

The fact that this got 4 MILLION views says it all.
When Billie utters the word "fart" you know it's gonna be a great story

I love the way American talk show hosts try to inveigle themselves into the homes of British celebrities - but the celebrity never actually invites them once the show is over! With the exception of Tom Cruise……
Looks like a heavy metal John Cleese.
At least I'm not the only person that thinks of John Cleese when I see Billy Connolly. Thank you.
Bolt! John Cleese come on no similarity there.
I'm not being annoying just saying
Much much better than Cleese,
He`s probably punch you for saying that lmao
I am having arthritic cramps as I watch this, I am laughing the pain away, medical smoke could have something to do with it, love Billy, if there is one person you want to be stuck in the lift with ( elevator ) it would be him

He's so windswept and interesting :)
Ahaha he said the thing!
Funniest man ever. Even the talk show host was was on form!
If you’ve never seen Billy’s views on when terrorists tried attacking Glasgow I recommend it highly it’s tremendous 😂
I absolutely adore him. It is such a shame he is now suffering from Parkinson's while he was undergoing surgery for prostate cancer.
