Comedian Billy Connolly interviewed by Rove McManus. October, 2001. Taken from an old VHS tape, so unfortunately this is the best possible quality.

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.

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).

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

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. :-)

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!
