    why all the hate on rove. All i can see is that Rove is excited and Billy seems to be bouncing off him and enjoying himself just fine. the whole thing flows quite well

      Connolly fan boys getting their knickers in a knot. He's a very funny man, but it's not a competition.

      Rove often talks in a loud stupid voice to get people to still laugh at him if he’s losing them

    What he said about the pay difference between acting and stand-up is interesting. He said stand-up pays better, buts that's mostly in the UK and Ireland. I heard from a comedian in America that they try to do acting jobs when they can because you hardly get anything for stand-up in America.

      +Lazy Spark I suppose it depends who you are.. Billy could fill a 100'000 seater stadium and so could Eddie Murphy. Billy was in the Hobbit for about 5 minutes and prob spent weeks in make up for about half a million quid. Now that's a lot of money but if he done a 30 night tour he would prob earn a good 10 million.

      Billy has said Stand-up is where he makes his money. He appears around the world not just the UK and Ireland. He doesn't get a lot of money from film acting, as he tends to die a lot in films.

    I was never a fan of Billy through my teens & twenties. Then, In my mid thirties I understood where he was coming from and I saw him for the comedy Guru that he is.
    BUT........ Near the beginning of the interview he said he hated people coming up to him and telling him jokes, Which is ironic, Considering he became a star overnight when he first appeared as a guest on Parkinson and told a joke that some random bloke had told him in the street. !!!! (search for Parkinsons last ever chat show, where Billy & Michael talk about it, and show the original footage).

    • @Cruithneach

      That's how he became a star, is it? Those of us who had been listening to his records for years before must have been visionaries then

    • @irbennett
      @irbennett 22 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Billy now tells stories not jokes. So people coming up to him offering jokes its an annoyance. Because he has no use for jokes.

    Rove embarrassed himself.
    He's supposed to be interviewing but he's acting like a kid sitting on Santa's lap

    The Host Rove should stick with kindergarten shows or romper-room, it would better fit with his level of maturity and intellectual ability. He looks like a bit of a fool and far out of his depth here. Hard to watch and not cringe at Rove trying so hard but failing. I was searching for Billy Connolly when I found this. Now there's a comedian!

    The young lad thought that he could compete. The sad wee thing.
    I'm sure that he is hilarious on his own andI do admire his bollocks for thinking that he could boss Billy.
    Connolly is the master. :-)

    Australians are hilariously funny when they just be themselves but there is something cringe worthy when they try too hard to be funny.
