Billy Connolly, alongside Jasper Carrott and the Rochdale Cowboy himself Mike Harding. Standup’s holy trinity of the 70s.

2025-05-22 13:42:15 +0000 UTCGreat reaction guys, thank you. When it comes to Billy, you are correct, there really isn't a starting point but i will put the clip on the playlist of the appearance on TV that skyrocketed his career. Billy is an amazing man and i have had the pleasure of meeting him on 2 occasions. Once in a pub, he bought me a pint. And the other at a gig where i was helping with the lighting. He is an absolute delight and so friendly but then he is Scottish. "People who believe in Ghosts" and "Mood Bracelets", two very short clips are in the playlist somewhere and are hilarious but everything he says is tbh. Unfortunately Billy and Youtube copyright are not very good friends. Some channels are lucky and others not. It really is hit and miss.
