Billy is one of the greatest story tellers of all time. He often goes off on a tangent and has you laughing before the end. You must do his Colonoscopy story.
Welcome to SIR Billy Connolly. Scotlands greatest comedy legend. Since retired due to his Parkinson's,but regarded as a National Treasure.here in all of the UK
Young man, get that lovely lady insured because if you are going down the Billy rabbit hole, she is going to burst laughing at some point,. Seriously, love you two, keep 'em coming, and enjoy Billy, he is one of the best ever.
Favourite short Billy joke. I met this guy the other day, he had a huge dog. He said "he can smell fear". I said "I'm not surprised, I just shit myself".
Billy is a national hero. From childhood in Glasgow, to shipyard welder and boilermaker, to Army Reserve Paratrooper, to banjo player and folk singer. He transitioned from singing songs and telling funny stories in between to full stand up comedy. Made some incredible TV travel series , been in a wide range of movies and created some very surreal art.
Billy or "The Big yin" as us Scottish call him has been around since the seventies and is famous worldwide. The guy is hilarious and my Dad said he went to school with him which me and my brother didn't believe. My Da like many older Scottish guys did a fair bit of bullshitting when telling stories. And one day me & my Da were in The Smiddy bar in an area of Glasgow called Partick when who walks in but Billy Connolly himself. He ordered a drink, recognised my Da and greeted him. I got introduced with my mouth wide open and the look on my Da's face when Billy sat at a table to read his newspaper was priceless. A kinda "fawking told you so" look on his face, grinning like a Cheshire cat.😂
Billy Connolly is one of the greatest of all time. I've been cracked up by his stage performances since I was a child in the 1970s. He should be a UNESCO World Heritage Site!
Billy Connolly and Robin Williams are two of the greatest comedians who also have had great careers in movies. Both brought originality to the stage and screen. Billy's stories on wildebeest, holidays with his family and stories on his life before stand up are hilarious.
His wife is Pamela Stephenson, Lady Connolly (born 4 December 1949) she is a New Zealand-born psychologist, writer, actress and comedian. She moved with her family to Australia in 1953 and studied at the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA). After playing several stage and television roles, she emigrated to the United Kingdom in 1976. Parts in television shows including Space: 1999, New Avengers, The Professionals and Tales of the Unexpected preceded her breakthrough role in the satirical sketch show Not the Nine O'Clock News (1979-1982) alongside Rowan Atkinson, Mr Bean, Mel Smith and Griff Rhys Jones. Not the Nine O'Clock News might be worth reacting to.
Billy Connolly is, I believe, the best stand up ever....or certainly among a handful of the best. Brilliant storyteller and very unlike almost any other before him in his style. A naturally very funny man. A Scottish legend. A world legend. Try "mood bracelets"
When I saw you were reacting to Billy Connolly I couldn't wait to start as I knew I would have even more fun with your reaction.Love from an old English lady living in Italy
Another comedian I think you will like that I don't think you have reacted to yet is Dave Allen. Try his Telling the Time, Airplanes and Adam and Eve to start with but I think you will love any of his stuff.
I'm a Glaswegian but I have to say we have the best humour in the world. I've lived abroad for several years and never heard day to day humour like I had heard in Glasgow.
I love watching you guys reacting to comedy especially Jess's laugh, it's contagious! Billy Connolly is the best, he'll make your sides ache with all the laughing. Another comedian you should take a look at is Lee Evans, different kind of comedian but hilarious too 😂
Billy is the ultimate storyteller,he isn't really a stand up joke teller and most of his stories are based on everyday life with a bit of artistic license,I am 70 and live about 30 miles away from his home town and have followed his career from the beginning like most Scots and had the pleasure of seeing him live a few times in the days when he was a musician and a comic,please watch the colonoscopy video,another great reaction guys,love your content
If you're not familiar with Billy Connolly you have so much to look forward to. Billy is comedy royalty in the UK and (and Australia I believe) and a genius comedian and raconteur. It's not easy to find but his posh dinner party story is belly achingly funny as is his Wildebeast routine but you really can't go wrong with Billy.
New comedian??? Probably the greatest comedian of all time! Well that's what Robin Williams said about the "Big Yin!" Most younger comedians will tell you that he is their hero
Billy is a master at story telling, even his tangents are funny before coming back to the original point. The clips on UA-cam don't do him justice, you need to watch a full show 🏴🏴
Even the best comedians in the world proclaim billy Connolly as the funniest man alive. Ronin Williams was one of his best freinds and considered him to be the funniest man he ever met. Heres a cool Connolly fact, he never ever wrote a script fot his shows it was almost always adlibed, straight out of memory.
Billy is my hero and fellow Scot! You must watch old lady on a bus, the wildebeest, terrorist in Glasgow, every town has one, Incontinence pants, big slipper. That's for starters lol
Hi Guys, not only is Billy an incredible comedian (at one stage he had a sit-com on US tv, playing a teacher, I think it was called "Head of the Class"), he's also been in some dramatic films like "The Boon Dock Saints" "Mrs Brown" and "The Last Samurai". It's worth watching him and Tom Cruise on the Michael Parkinson chat show not long after the film came out.
I feel the need to share this for the greater good of humanity: I installed a kitchen for a Dwarf Woman. She was one of the most fantastic customers I have ever had (ended up doing lots of work for her, as we got along so well). I was ripping her old kitchen out (she had emptied all the cupboards as usual), but as I took down a wall cupboard; a HUGE rubber... phallus rolled off the top and hit me on the head. I left it on the side, finished taking the old kitchen out, locked the house and went home. About half six that night I got a text from her. This is not verbatim, but I promise it is so very close.... "Thanks for retrieving my d**do. I thought my ex boyfriend had thrown it out when we split up. Seems like he put it somewhere I couldn't reach. :)" I was crying with laughter. She seemed so fun as a customer, so I texted back "No worries. So glad you have your toy back. I would suggest a thorough wash and disinfectant before your reunion is complete." Cheeky quip, but factual as this thing had layers of dust and grime on it. She texted back... "Already scrubbed and primed. Just opening a bottle of wine to set the mood!". 😵💫 All I could respond with was... "Sounds like a decent plan." 🥵
I met Billy Connelly when they were filming Gulliver's Travels, shame the film wasn't received very well & I feel sorry for him, Jack Black & Emily Blunt, but Catherine Tate & James Corden not so much
His Zebra being attact on the Savana is so funny you will never forget it. Years ago he did An Audiance With Billy Connoly, his Queen on a horse doing Trooping the Colour new national anthem is amazing. He never fales and with Judy Dench did some amazing film accting.
I know people who have seen Billy live and then insist that they would never go back to see him again, because it was physically painful from the amount of laughing they did. He's also never done the same show twice, he doesn't work from a script and just extemporises every time he's on stage.
Very funny guy, who was huge in his day, and not a bad actor too. My favourite being his surprisingly touching role of being a servant to Queen Victoria whilst she was in mourning, who was played by Judy Dench, in the film Mr Brown.
Billy Connolly is a comedy genius. His delivery makes it seems like he is talking to you directly like you would in a bar Check out his Wilderbeast sketch
Billy is one of the greatest story tellers of all time. He often goes off on a tangent and has you laughing before the end. You must do his Colonoscopy story.
OMG, that is an awesome story. I laughed so hard I nearly suffocated
Billy Connolly's- Incontinent pants routine is an absolute must:)
That's my favourite Billy story, cry laughing every time, and have seen it several times
@@denisecoen2820and terrorist attack at Glasgow Airport
Billy & Robin Williams are the two best story tellers, no one comes close to those two legends
A lot more Billy please

An Audience woth Billy Connolly is an absolute treat from start to finish. Need to watch all of it though as so many of his stories meander
Favourite short Billy joke.
I met this guy the other day, he had a huge dog.
He said "he can smell fear".
I said "I'm not surprised, I just shit myself".
I saw Billy live in Glasgow years ago, it was painful, my abs ached the next day. A British icon. Peace and love you two.
Go for the deep dive with Billy, he is one of the greatest.
Billy is a national hero.
From childhood in Glasgow, to shipyard welder and boilermaker, to Army Reserve Paratrooper, to banjo player and folk singer.

Billy is the best in the world its that simple
Billy is a legend. The true king of comedy
One of the greatest comedians and story tellers ever.
Billy Connolly has some great stories you should look at the old lady on the bus.
You took the words right out of my mouth 👍🏼
And the Glasgow airport terrorist attack. And the Incontinence pants from an Audience with Billy Connolly
@@MattWhite-vh6xh I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything of his that I didn’t like to be honest 🏴🔥💯👍🏼
Yeah, he doesn't really tell jokes, just hilariously funny stories.
the funniest man to walk the earth
Billy Connolly is one of the greatest of all time. I've been cracked up by his stage performances since I was a child in the 1970s. He should be a UNESCO World Heritage Site!
you would also love an audiance with billy connolly, fantastic storys
Every time this clip shows up, I have to watch it !
The funniest man alive. Do his story about drinking the water in Ibiza.
Another new Comedian? OMG. Where have you been?
How can u not know about Billy, he's been a living legend and national treasure since the 70's.
More Connolly please. Ace story teller.
You need to show more Billy Connolly he is the best comedian ever! 🏴
Watch him doing the wildebeest sketch , brilliant
The worlds greatest storyteller, welcome the world of real humour :)😂
The best story Billy told was the Crucifixion, he did it in the early 70's and it took up half of one side of a LP record it's hilarious.
I have to explain that Billy tells stories that are funny.
Billy Connolly and Robin Williams are two of the greatest comedians who also have had great careers in movies. Both brought originality to the stage and screen.
Billy's stories on wildebeest, holidays with his family and stories on his life before stand up are hilarious.

Not the Nine O'Clock News might be worth reacting to.
I recall when I left senior school in 1975, I bought Bill's double album. He's been around a long while.
The Big Yin is hilarious and you have popped into some rabbit hole. He has thousands of stories to explore
Billy Connolly is, I believe, the best stand up ever....or certainly among a handful of the best.
Brilliant storyteller and very unlike almost any other before him in his style. A naturally very funny man.
A Scottish legend. A world legend.
Try "mood bracelets"
If you like the platform boots, you'd love his first notorious costume. Look up "Big Banana Boots". He made a tour film with the same name.
My dad took me to the Glasgow Pavillion to see Billy Connolly when I was 15, I’m 56 now, and I couldn’t breathe for laughing
When I saw you were reacting to Billy Connolly I couldn't wait to start as I knew I would have even more fun with your reaction.Love from an old English lady living in Italy

You can’t go wrong with Billy. Everything he does is just hilarious. And yes the Scottish accent is the best. Greetings 🇳🇱
A fantastic story teller.
Brilliant reaction to a great storyteller. Even funnier is Billy's Old Lady on a Bus. Please look out for that one.
You need to follow this up with his “old lady on the bus” and “ wildebeest “
That is so funny as could easily happen in Glasgow 😂😂
Love his beetle crushes

Billy is the best story teller ever.
Billy is the G.O.A.T. of British comedy. So much for you to enjoy.
WORLD comedy
His Zebra being attact on the Savana is so funny you will never forget it. Years ago he did An Audiance With Billy Connoly, his Queen on a horse doing Trooping the Colour new national anthem is amazing. He never fales and with Judy Dench did some amazing film accting.

I’ve seen Billy live, I’d go back in a heartbeat! I’m a sucker for punishment. 😂
I can relate to that. Saw him at the Pavillion in Glasgow many years ago and my jaw ached for days! Utterly brilliant
His full length 'An Audience With Billy Connolly' is the funniest thing I've ever seen.
Love Billy please one day do Billy Connelly incontinence pants ❤
Best storyteller of them all.
Try out another bus story of his called Old Woman on the Bus.
My throat hurt I was laughing so much.
You will too.
Look up "an audience with Billy Connolly." It's a one-off gig packed with of-their-time celebrities in the audience.
Very funny guy, who was huge in his day, and not a bad actor too. My favourite being his surprisingly touching role of being a servant to Queen Victoria whilst she was in mourning, who was played by Judy Dench, in the film Mr Brown.
Billy Connolly is the best check out Old Lady on a Bus and Glasgow Terrorist attack
Billy Connolly is a national Treasure
His Wildebeest story and the Incontinence Pants one are ones to see. He's one of the greatest comedians there has ever been andever will be
Those, and the two Glaswegians visiting Rome for the first time!
Any Billy is awesome but personal favourite is the Wildebeest story - love your reactions to everything so far
Just confirmation Americans are on a different planet, never heard of billy connelly
Whereas others just don't know how to spell Billy Connolly 🤷♂
He's also a pretty good actor and has an extensive list of TV shows and movies to his name.
check out Billy's lion and wildebeest story a whole story with hardly any words but so funny.
Thats mild for Billy, easily the best comedian to come from these shores.
you need his earlier stuff..'an evening with billy connolly' is the funniest show I ever saw.
To me, Billy is the BEST! And always will be!! :D
Dave Allen too
