If you know anything about Glaswegians, and I do, you know terrorists are fish out of water in that city. These folks do not care about your hate lol. They have enough to worry about day to day. It's known as a "stabby" city. They fear nothing.
Which show is this from?
{:o:O:}
If u like Scottish comedy like still game, Jack Jarvis Esquire & Vicit Mcdade. Then u may enjoy Rab C Nisbit. U should give it a try & also Chewing the Fat, that was some the cast from still game that appeared in that show, also very funny 😂😂
The ‘Big Yin’ is a Scottish national treasure 😁
I'll raise that, he's not only a Scottish national treasure, he's a international treasure, we could call him "The Highlander" because... there can only be one... Billy Connolly.
UK National treasure just so sad he is now so poorly parkinsons is a cruel disease
I'm Scottish myself. Went down to Manchester to sew him live. He came outside afterwards and stood speaking to us for an hr. Taking photos, signing autographs. Lesser quality celebs charge a fortune just to say hello to them
@@eddiebear34 Billy is a gem, one of the nicest people you'll ever meet, he might be a huge celebrity, but he doesn't act like one, completely down to earth and a real people's person.
He certainly is! 🏴
Glasgow is famous for its hard-assed, no nonsense citizens.
aye but we are friendly as well
We won the friendliest city in the UK the same year as the murder capital of Europe, ya couldna make it up 😂
It's know as the place you'll get stabbed but get directions to the hospital.
As a Glaswegian myself I can say that we're very funny n unlike most other folk we can laugh at ourselves n as he said the Irish can also do it ❤😂
...if yer no stayin' mare than a fortnight.@@isabellittle1552
As a Scot, thank you so much for listening and understanding and not immediately mocking the accent! The attack was in 2007, you used to be able to drive up to the entrance of Glasgow airport. Two men with many tanks of petrol and propane, in a jeep already set on fire, attempted to drive straight into the terminal through the main doors; hoping for a massive explosion. They threw petrol bombs and set themselves on fire. It didn't go to plan, they struck a pillar and taxi drivers and airport staff standing outside attacked the men. That is also why Kevin Bridges' Dad says "we have been there", as it's where everyone used to drop off their family (etc.) to the airport (and no longer allowed). Many are still proud that Glasgow somehow came before, even the Paris attack 😂
Why are people no longer allowed to drop off their families? 🧐
Just in case some crazy person drives a car at the entrance. There is designated drop off section now. @@RachaelMorgan-om4xw
@@RachaelMorgan-om4xw They are, you're just not allowed to drive right up to the terminal door any more (*nobody is, regardless of having a family or not)
@@RachaelMorgan-om4xwa lot of airports have moved the drop off point away from the main buildin since then, or since 9/11. if the
I used to date a girl whos brother worked at McDonalds at Gatwick.... and we walked through the "Crew" access every day - I had hair down to my arse, a painted leather jacket,,, absolutely no way me or her should be in that passage. And no one ever challenged us. When I saw the reports of the Glasgow attack... honestly I thought "Why bother with the doors?" You can stroll straight into most large buildings if you look like you're pissed off enough... BUT - and I mean this from the heart. What an excellent response from the staff and passers by - kicking the shite out of someone who tried to bomb you? THAT is Glasgow!!!! And I'm from London.... max respect to anyone involved.
Greatest comedian to ever grace a stage.
Never wrote a joke…never knew what he’d talk about before hand…just went out and talked.
Legend. 🏴
As a scot, billy speaks the truth 😂😂..we fear no one,even us women..big hearts & would do anything for anyone but try that crap here again & it wont end well. The way billy explains it is very true but also hilarious 😊
Good comment Karen ❤
@@susanmather Agree. You would need to be mental to piss off a Glasgow lassie!
@@jamie9680 well said Jamie ♥️
Guy was performing comedy for about 6 decades, he's retired now because of his illness. I've heard all of his jokes too many times and they still crack me up today.
Legend
Aye...they never grow old...
A legit comedian like Billy is like a good book or film.
They never get old, despite his illness and mortality. Billy Connolly has achieved immortality through his comedy.
One of favourites is about agnes and betty the lions stalking the wildebeast on Serengeti. Brilliant.
Glasgow is a hard city with welcoming citizens, and the best comedian in the world. As Billy said the terrorist could not have picked a worst city to attack. Thank you Mr John Smeaton and other Glaswegian hero's.
His best, “what are you doing in Glasgow lookin’ for 57 virgins” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Also watch him on Parkinson speaking about the male olympics, hilarious 🤣🤣
So...like...when are you moving to Scotland? This much appreciation, you're basically one of us 🏴🏴🏴
I’ll definitely be visiting soon 🤣🤩💙
Billy Connelly what a legend
I'm from Glasgow and I still love this clip of billy Connolly 🤗🤗 he's so funny
“I’m not sure about religious fanatics without a feckin football team” 🤣
Brilliant line 😂
"Trying to bring religious war to Glasgow. You're only about 600 years too late. You've no even got a football team yet."
Frankie Boyle😁
Well Celtic now support Islamist fanatics so they’ll now have a favourite football team
@@pseudonayme7717well they are trying it again but instead of blowing us up there erasing us and repeating what nazis did to jews in the 30s to jews all over again
@Captainval28 well rangers fans hate colour no matter the religion.
Jack and Victor, Winston, Issa and Boaby… all fantastic true life characters from Still Game 🤣🤣🤣
We in Australia love Billy,❤big love to you my friend.
One of his favourite places. G'day from Scotland mate👍😊
Billy is our hero. I've watched him for years. He speaks for everyone.on whatever subject sex,religion pc. If I'm feeling down I just listen to billy to make me laugh😂😂
Billy is a legend of our wee country
My parents were at the airport that day I can't say I was particularly worried, it sounded like a complete farce. The flight was delayed 3 hours so they were annoyed but I was pissing myself laughing.
Oh how I wish somebody would take Billy's advice, and just take the pish out of Terrorism. It is a Joke, after all.... terrorism, not just Billy Conolley's astute observations: he is so right 🤗
You should watch the sketch of northern Irish linfield supporter ‘Derek’ when the terrorists interfere with his Tenerife (ten-er-if-ie) holiday too 😆
My Dad (now retired) was a cop at the time was clearing the carpark while this was all going on.... He told me most ppls gripe was missing the duty free 4 their fags 🙈 no mention of the fact someone had been stopped trying 2 bomb the airport... They knew that woulda been dealt with accordingly 🤣
Your reaction makes me laugh out loud. You come across as a lovely, friendly soul 😊
His funniest stories are the ones about his young days in Glasgow, and his days at the Dockyards and the characters he worked with. Check out the broken arse walk :-)
Yes, I knew Billy before he was famous, and was trying out his comedy on us, as he transitioned from Folk to comedy. What was always obvious was the true respect he had for those older men he worked with in the shipbuilding yards. He hero worshipped them.
He was saying the reporter was posh and spoke with big words that the man didn't understand. When he said "the flames were scooshing out the back of the jeep. Scooshing means fire shooting out the back like when you throw an aerosol canister on a bonfire. lol "Was the jeep ablaze when the fracas ensued" "Wha??" "Was the jeep on fire at the start of the fight" lol Oh aye! The flames were scooshin' out the back!" lol "Don't come here, we'll set about you." That's what John Smeaton said at the end of the video if you didn't quite catch it. Accent is very thick lol In other words, don't come here or we'll kick your butt. lol
Billy Connlly. What a legend as is Mr Smeaton and all those who were involved in the Glsgow airport attack.
I remember this happening it was goofed up from the start to finish. I don't recall anyone being scared about the terror attack we were all laughing. A very silly event. Billy captures it perfectly. He's a Scottish legend
This is the truth .. as I sit here. I have tried.. to show Billy to friends.. But as a Norwegian. They don't get it. My step dad IS Scottish.. so I do. And I even saw him in Glasgow live a few years back.
BUT!!!! I have a few neigbours from Afghanistan. And the one he did about the wee Afghani? Norwegiens are known, as are most scandinavians and holland for being good in english? No!!! The Afghani (my neighbour) got it right away. And almost died laughing.
One of the greatest comedians of the last century. I never tire of listening to this man.
❤❤❤being a Glaswegian myself im so proud of billy met him loads of time at celtic park , he is a true Glasgow boy always has time for people to say hello,
🤩🤩
Great to see you embracing our culture & comedy pal 👍🏻
Billy is my all-time favorite comedian, a great actor too, skilled musician and all-round good and decent man, i love him to bits.
I'm not a Scotsman but i've known Billy since the early 80's and i fell in love then and that love remains up till this very day, such an amazing story teller.
And while his story telling is very clear in his comedy, it's his "World tour of " tv series where he shows that in a most wonderful and personal manner, showing us the things he cares about, they places he finds fascinating, the joy of discovery in his eyes, it's almost a deep-dive into his soul, showing his true self throughout.
Yes here in Glasgow we have 2 meanings for the word SKOOSH , One is too spray and the other is a slang term for a bottle of pop ( a bottle of skoosh ) . Terrorist in Glasgow , what were they thinking ? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not just in Glasgow btw. Scoosh is used in the rest of Scotland too and it's actually in the OED.
I'm Scottish and I have grown up listening to this man. There will never be anyone else like "The Big Yin" 🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰💜💜💜💜💜 I love you auld yin ❤. Thanks for showing this.
Billy is one of the worlds greatest never mind Scotland
Honestly you now understand our sense of humour ❤
The finest comedian in the world.
This man makes me proud to b scotish waht a legend he is ❤❤❤
Ah man - I’ve been outa Dublin longer than you’ve been alive - but your joy and amusement watching sh&t is fecking deadly. Keep doing it bud 👍
Glad you enjoyed it 🤩
I saw Billy live, he is hysterical and phenomenal❤
Eddy, the words you didn't understand related to Billy quoting the heroic baggage handler describing the flames being similar as when you throw an aerosol (pressurised container, like a deodorant tin) onto a bonfire! Naturally the middle-class journalist from a leafy part of London had no idea what the working class man from the Glasgow tenements was talking about! 😆
Thanks for putting that up. One of the funniest from Sir Billy.
Billy is the GOAT of stand up comedy 😂
The "big yin" is a comedy genius. Thanks for reacting to this 😂😂😂. I'm also from Scotland.
Could make me laugh until I cried!
The Glasgow kiss lol one wi the heed hahaha tears are tripping me with laughter
Thanks for this, not seen this in a while
I’m a Scot, but I’ve lived in Australia for many years. Billy is one of my favourite comedians. I grew up in Glasgow and it used to be a tough old place. I was so enjoying watching you watching Billy, lol
Im from Glasgow and Billys been my comedy idiol since i can remember,i luv it when other cultures can appreciate wat we glesgawiegans are all about and our sense of humour 🙌🙌😁
Your knowledge and respect for Scottish humor has got my subscription 🏴🏴🏴
Billy Connolly is the best comic on the planet could watch him for ever thanks for the laughs Billy ❤
The funniest comedian we have ever produced.
Im from Glasgow & Billy nailed it 😂😂😂
I feel like I am doing an Old Auntie comment here, but we did a pretty good job of humour in the 80's and 90's, it was far from perfect, esp for a woman, but my Nana in her late 70's had a Billy Connolly tape, with all the swearing, in her brown original mini - I didnt realise she did that until she died and we had to sort the car. Ive only recently come across your posts randomly, but so glad I did. You are a lovely and genuine guy with the best of smiles! :) Best of luck with the channel darling. Love and respect from Scotland.
good shout wee man, quality reaction 🤪😜
Thanks 🤣🤣
I watched the original news and when the woman BBC reporter said "when the fracas ensued" in her Received Pronunciation and John replied with "Wha?", I choked myself laughing so hard. Without doubt the funniest news report I've ever seen.
Makes such a change that you don't interrupt the video all the time as so many Americans do but then your British. You've got very good taste, brilliant comedians . I think the echo in the theatre made it more difficult to understand Billy. Good reaction and good presentation. 👏
Thanks very much 🥳
Hello billy all the very best from Glasgow brilliant as always
I remember the incident well as one of the terrorists was a doctor at a local hospital. Doctor's have to make a vow to do no harm 🤔🤷🤦Trying to blow up people is the opposite of that. The doctor stayed in the same street and village as my mum's friend.
The part that you found the hardest to understand was when Billy was trying to imitate a posh English BBC Accent. What was funnier was she used vocabulary in the question that the ordinary Scottish baggage handler couldn't understand so he said Whit? You understood his normal Scottish accent and a word like skoosh too.
I love Billy. Give his telling of the crucifixión a listen.
You are literally picking the best of the best, so glad to see these all again and to see a younger person enjoying them as much as we did. Sean Lock was hysterical too and as I detect a bit of Irish accent at times you might like Lee Mack doing Irish name pronounciations.
Sean Lock. May he be having a giggle up there at our Billy ❤
I'm Irish and we love Billy ☘️☘️
I'm a 54 and come from Glasgow and we where brought up listening to Billy. If you liked this you really have to look up his early years. Stuff from the 70's & 80's absolutely hilarious. Good on you for having a go at Still Game ,again hilarious and so true to life in the Glesga schemes.
If you like Scottish comedy you should watch some early episodes of Rab C Nesbit. A lot of the Still Game cast had cameos in that show.
1975 was the year the Big Yin really broke out into the mainstream with his chatshow appearance on Parkinson (check that out for his classic joke that everyone was talking about the next day). His accent was definitely a lot stronger in the 70s. It's mellowed over the years.
first time I ever saw the Big Yin, his venue was in a high school auditorium, east of Toronto....we (our family) knew of him, and knew we could NOT miss him!!!.... he was absolutely brilliant....that was his "big banana feet" tour....early 70's??....aye, that sounds about right....
@@tartanrocker5926 Yeah, '75 was the first time he wore them, on the Irish tour. It was filmed for a documentary that came out in '76. The BFI here has restored the footage and are releasing it as a Bluray in May.
I was on holiday in Bulgaria and supposed to be flying back when it happened,got an extra day in the sun waiting for our plane to leave 😂
This was brilliant. Thanks for showing it again.
For my money, the best comedian of all time. Real, physically hilarious and let’s face it, from one of the most humorous countries in the world. Hail King Billy ❤
Billy is the best😂
Eddy Cheese talking about Still Game?? Amazing
Priceless
Frankly Boyle and the Big Yin are my favourite comedians.
I’m also Scottish, so I’m Bias, lol.
This was so funny! I love it ❤ Also, you have such a beautiful smile 😊
Brilliant 👏
There's a photo of a Scots man called Ben Innes standing in a plane, getting a selfie with a terrorist its one of the funniest photos I've seen. We are Scots, and we dont take any pish, 😂
The man's the best ever
Isa, Winston, - best Scot’s comedy. 👍👍
❤ great review x
Thank you 🤩🤩🤩
It always cracks me up when they have to subtitle us Scots. Seen it done with the Irish too. Such a pity there doesn't seem to be a better quality clip of this around. Luckily you can understand most of it though. Frankie Boyle is another you've watched. Jack, Victor, Winston, Boabby, Isa, Tam, Navid. They're the main characters in Still Game 😎
I could have done with subtitles for Rab C. Nesbitt 😂 don’t think they were around then though 😅
@@radiggie you have to watch a couple of minutes of Rab C with the subtitles on. It's hilarious. 🤣
One of the funniest thing I ever saw was a really broad Scottish show with subtitles the just translated to the Scottish I fell of the couch laughing.
@@dianacasey6002 ah that would have been brilliant!!
@@emander8340 it was
As a Scottish lass myself..it's great to see people enjoying our sense of humour 😂😂... still game is Jack and Victor..brilliant 😂😂😂
John Smeaton and all the Scottish Men and Dad's who had saved and determined to go on Holiday! They too set upon the terrorists and burning cars it was WILD!
Aw oor Billy's a national treasure. Grew up listening to his LPs as a wean in the 70s. It's the observational humour that's so funny. Very relatable. As weans we all sang the Welly Boot Song and in turn I taught the kids in nurseries I worked in and my own 2.
Wildebeest, crucifixion, potatoes of the night...too many to list.
One of the earliest examples of a Go Fund Me type thing was "Buy John Smeaton a pint" and he got so many donations the full pub got pished for free. 😆
Eddy, what a beautiful human you are, I love your channel, you make me feel happy when I'm down x
My dear old dad would listen to Billy whilst in the car. Was always a massive fan.
Billy connelly is a national treasure. He can tell a joke hes takes you on a journey. He swears but its doesn't sound vulgar or offensive he talks about very Scottish situations and still makes it funny for all people. My mum doesn't laugh at many comedians he has her crying laughing. We will never have anothrr man like the big yin.
another one worth watching: try a bit of Rab C Nesbitt. First showed on council telly down south, had subtitles :)
Picked him up from Heathrow from a Glasgow flight after he'd just lumped a Sun Photographer we laughed all the way home to his house "Futtocks End" the other side of Bray Berks
Legend 🤣
Eddy your becoming my favourite youtuber to watch 😂😂love your reactions n energy top guy 🙏 🏴
I cried laughing at this., not only because it was Billy, but it epitomised the whole scottish culture where you just dinnae do that! Im glad you enjoy his comedy, I always laugh when my late gran (who had dementia) when told I had seen Billy at the Caird Hall Dundee enquired how many new swear words I had learned. 😂
Billy is a legend my favourite comedian my dad was from Glasgow he loved him even met him ❤️
As a fellow Scotsmen I was raised on watching Billy #thegoat
My favourite comedian ❤
I remember being a young teen, no internet, in Wales, watching him curled up in laughter
Billy is just hilarious 😂
I remember flying to Glasgow from Luton after this happened it was so weird seeing a big hole in the airport and EasyJet had to be moved
The Big Yin absolute legend. Nd still game is the best comedy show ever.. all the best pal fae Glasgow 🏴🏴🏴🏴
You should watch 2 doors down 😂 ..
Hello from Scotland
Being a native Glaswegian who now lives in Ireland I totally get the surge of pride thing, when I heard about John Smeaton knocking out the jihadi who was on fire my reaction was the same as Billy s.👊😎👍 Out accent can be hard to catch sometimes and tbf Billy s has been diluted big time over the years so I'm not sure how u didn't catch it. Tbh man I had a little trouble with yours at times but that's normal for the UK intit.😂
The dude u were thinking of was Greg Hemphill who plays Victor McDade in Still game. 👍
I'm an Aussie who lives in Ireland and when I lived in County Kerry, the local pub I used to go to had a number of Scottish guys frequenting it too. I laughed when the Irish guys, my ex included, couldn't understand a thing they said and I would have to interpret!
At 5:26 the interviewer, from some leafy suburb of Hampstead or somewhere, asks John Smeaton (in a posh English accent)
“When the fracas ensued was the Cherokee ablaze?”
“What?”
“Was the Jeep on fire at the start of the fight?
He says “Oh Aye, the flames were skooshing right out the back!”
Long live the wonderful Billy Connolly!
He’s made me laugh for the last 52 years!
Seen him live.. bloody hilarious!
Still game is Scottish education , a multitude of good Scot banter , enjoy
The funny thing is that what he said is bloody true.
Terrorist in Glasgow 😂😂😂
Good luck the Scottish would laugh in your face while knocking seven bells of crap out of you while downing a bottle of whiskey, and that's just the women.
Typical night out in Glasgow.
Ps: I bloody love the Scottish.
😂😂😂😂 Billy keeps it real my last comment I started with I'm from Glasgow 😂
If you can try and track down episodes of a show called chewing the fat , it’s a precursor to still game lots of the same comedians
Never mention Kevin Bridges in the same breath as Billy Connolly
