I remember driving through Glasgow listening to this audio tape, I had to pull over before I had an accident due to laughs hard and the tears streaming down my face and the inability to breath

You watch these clips of very ordinary US comics and people rave about them. Then you watch Billy. True comic genius and THE master of delivery

[colingordon]

Hemingway couldnt write a better opening line -
'We werent lost. We knew where we were, but nobody could find us.'

Billy’s performances should be prescribed on the NHS to anyone who’s depressed or simply needs cheering up. Better than any pill any day.

Most people have a coffee to start the day, I prefer 5 minutes of Billy.

[TenaciousDanzig]

Billy is such an incredible storyteller. So natural and engaging. He makes it look effortless

[Babyluthi]

You Billy are a prescription for any kind of anxiety, depression or sadness! Absolutely brilliant!

I laughed so hard some pish came out and I'm a big old grumpy bastard well into my 60s now!! Billy described my childhood here. So mad but so many funny stories. Thank you big fella for all the laughs you've given me in the past 50 years. Respect.

Could listen to the man telling story’s all day long

If you haven’t got it already, do yourselves a favour and get the “Windswept and Interesting” audiobook. This childhood memory is included.

I am crying…..I love Billy Connolly’s wonderful gift of turning everyday incidents into incredibly funny stories. Does anyone remember the one where the priest comes for tea and in the background the kids are fighting over who has more than their share of the coat…..? I could hardly breathe for laughing……

[risingdawn]

I'm so glad these clips are being uploaded

[shropsiberian]

Just brilliant. Great memories seeing this in the mid nineties, where have 27 years gone 🤷🏻‍♂️

[williamblake]

I am in stitches and tears here, I’m on my I-pad with sound muted, looked up and the wife’s expression just set me off again. Brilliant

[djgovan]

Hysterical...rivalling potatoes of the night.

[j.r]

I'm literally crying with the laughter brilliant thank you Billy🤣🤣🤣

The Irish, mostly Northern, often went to Western Scotland for work etc and often they would land in Anderston and stay there.
