For me the thing about Billy is his genuine enthusiasm for all things funny. He is a genius comedian for sure but his delivery oozes excitement. It's like he is always so excited to hear the joke or funny observation again himself. Such a wonderful man. Always loved him, always will

He is so down to earth and uneffected so humble what an amazing man

I was pregnant with my second mutant when I sat and watched this interview. My other half was at work and my little girl was in bed. I was absolutely crying my eyes out with laughter at this interview and I rang my dad who is a massive Billy fan and he thought something really bad had happened. When I finally got my words out I managed to tell him it was because of Billy. I remember the night so well. Haha

Brilliant writing my lady! You've got a we bit of comedian in yourself. I find his comedy in this interview re: growing old a wonderful way to laugh at our senior years & to find humor in our absurd body as it changes in these later years.

He is a brilliant comedian - audiences love him - from the moment he appears on tv or on stage he has the audience in the palms of his hands - love him

the best thing about billy, is the interviewer hardly says a word! he can literally fill a full show just why waffleing on, i love him

Wonderful man. Given me so much laughter down the years for which I will always be grateful. Love you Big Yin!

I have had the pleasure of meeting Billy on two occasions. First at a gig at the Apollo, Hammersmith. He said "God, I bet you get some stick, lookin' like that!" The next time I met this legend I took along my banjo. Not only did Billy play it for the crowd but he actually autographed it for me! He then was gracious enough as to ask how my tribute act was going. He then told me one of the secrets of his stage show........never to be divulged. 🙊

Taylor P. The old story about Viagra was...when it was released this guy said "Can you get it over the counter?" His mate replies "Yeah, if ye take two!"

The best comedian with the best interviewer. what a fitting way for Parky to go out.

What a wonderful and warm person. He’s up there with David Attenborough, Parkinson, David Frost, Joanna Lumley, Robin Day, Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie as offering a wonderful commentator on the fantastic but absurd meaning of life. Thank you. Xxx

Two legends together.

This guy is old old now in 2016/17, but even at this time way back when he started to be really old.. he still had the old magic.. I know it's almost gone now, but he was THE BEST COMEDIAN EVER - God bless Billy :)

Love Billy Connolly 💙. We all are the richer for him being with us here and when he no longer can be, we will keep the richness going by the stories and joyousness he showed us.

billy allways has me in sitches what a legend this guy is

One of the all time greats. So underrated.

Billy you're a legend and so is your beautiful New Zealand/Australian wife. I've followed you for years, stage, tv, dvds etc., and you have filled me with love & laughter - a reminder of my own Scottish relatives - from a New Zealand/Australian wife!

The best most original and funny comedian to walk the planet. The comic who every other comic aspires to be, and be as funny as. Billy is a complete force of nature and brings uncontrollable tears of laughter to millions

Seen Billy 7 times over his long career, and had jaw-ache every single time from laughing. My favourite moment was when I stood and snapped his pic in the Reid Hall in Forfar (1980s) and he totally ripped me a new one. I deserved it too. Just young and foolish, it was about this time Billy was being hassled by the media but he's such a good sport and my favourite ever Scotsman. Long live King Billy!

He’s my all time favourite stand up comedian,always makes me laugh, no matter how many times you see him 😂😂👏👏❤️

Aww Parky and Billy are so cute! Such good mates, it's lovely to see :)

One of the best observationailst humorist ever .

The funniest guy we have ever had here in the UK and everywhere. Will love you forever Billy

The greatest comedian that's ever lived and a great man

Billy will forever be Billy Bones on Muppet Treasure Island for me. It's the first thing I ever saw him in, & his voice is so distinct, it's like a core memory. I hear his voice, & I'm instantly transported back in time to watching MTI as a child. ❤

Billy has Parkinson's - the first symptom you notice is an incredible urge to interview people! 😎

Billy is so relatable. He spent his whole life observing the absurd we all experience and most importantly either remembering it or recording it. I assume Billy had a remarkable memory and story telling brain. We all know a Billy in our lives.

The most honest and funniest guy that invaded our lives! Love you Billy for who you are!

Holy shit almost 10 years ago now (well almost 9 but 9 is almost 10 ). Feck I'm feeling old.

what a legend every word is totally unrehearsed, rock on billy :)

He's an Old Druid! We are lucky to know him.

Parky and Billy, what a joy :)

God bless him, love him so much!

"Did you pack your bag yourself?" Oh what agony he experienced, trying to be quiet! Brilliant ... as always!

Thanx Big yin for helping me to laugh my way through my 65 years on the planet. Ok now 'Fuck off' Love you mate

The world is losing the 'joker' people. That person who brought laughter in dark times, cheered everyone up with their light. I woke up this morning feeling the weight of aweful experiences weighing me down and a voice inside said "Where are you?" And suddenly I remembered. I was one of the 'jokers' most of my life. I turned on here, typed in Billy Connelly and I recognised a spark in me that said, don’t let the bastards win. Misery breeds misery. Everday, I'm going to enjoy a dose of Billy. Thanks Big Yin. You were there when I was 10.. and you're back with me now at 59. Here's to a guid auld doze o humour! ❤🎉😂

Billy you are a legend I grew up laughing my ass off listening to the 'Big Yin'. Thanks for the giggles.

Funniest man on the planet, brilliant musician and a wise and compassionate human being.

Billy you're a legend and so is your beautiful New Zealand/Australian wife (loved her book on her Stevenson forefathers). I've followed you for years, stage, tv, dvds etc., and you have filled me with love & laughter - a reminder of my own Scottish relatives - from a New Zealand/Australian wife!

I went and saw Billy at the Vector Arena in 2014 and he was wonderful. Seeing him perform on stage was awesome. I collect his DVD's. Wonderful Man.

Unbelievably brilliant!!

I am so glad to see this again. I watched it on TV and felt sad afterwards.

I know the bum an bike joke is 30 odd years old and I know the punch line , but I'm hysterical by the time he finishes. just love him

Watching his stand up made me laugh until I was in tears....

I absolutely love the relationship these two had. Love you, Parky and Billy ❤❤❤

Yeah Parky seemed better than most. I've just got off a rabbit hole of Letterman and J Ross and they were horrible tabloid cretins asking inane disgusting questions that would make most people fall apart on live TV.

OMG, too funny. Parky laughing, Billy laughing. Just absolutely brilliant ❤❤❤

Heartwarming to see these two together :)

This is the kind of guest I love where the interviewer ask about four questions in 15 minutes because the guest is so great !

You could write a thousand words to describe how good Billy is but I'll just settle for Fucking Brilliant!.

greatest comedian of all time!

Scotlands finest...... Legend.

great, wonderfull guys both of them !!

Blessed

No one else has ever made me laugh like Billy....he renders me unable to speak through laughing....I adore him....it'll be a sad day when he gives up the stage...funniest man on the planet in my opinion

Just beautiful ❤

every clip i watch he always makes me laugh 😂

i love him.

1990 watched Billy At Albert that helped me get thru the first 24 hours of my mothers death. Billy is amazing

So proud of this Scottish son. x

He weaves his story bit by bit cleverly bringing hilariously funny asides. He is a natural the funniest man on earth. Sending love to him from Australia best of luck with his health. Keep on Billy. I laugh belly laughs till I cry. B

The first time I was introduced to Billy Connolly as an actor was in Muppet Treasure Island (1996). At the time I had no idea he was such a great standup comedian, then again I was seven so go figure.

defo the best of the best x

Love this wonderful guy!

just love this man

Always..the funniest man alive!!!

My favorite bit was off Pale Blue Scottish Man. The tale of trying to remember a thought, which is on a merry-go-round. Funny stuff!

i love the tale of gavin, which starts at 8.15.

I'm watching this in Melbourne, Australia, where it's officially Billy's 80th BIRTHDAY 24/11/2022 HAPPY BIRTHDAY Sir Billy Connolly 😘

RIP Sir Michael 2 legends together

When he talks about always needing to make people laugh and going through the airport, I can really relate to that. I love billy
