Billy Connolly
What can I say about Billy Connolly? He’s a global star, one of the most influential comedians of all time, an actor, musician, artist, writer and adventurer. Think of Billy and you smile – he’s brought laughter and light into the lives of millions of people across the world. It’s a delight and an honour to have Sir William Connolly - The Big Yin - as a guest on 'Great Scot!'. I’m so pleased that we were able to record this podcast pre-Covid, face to face in his home town of Glasgow. I hope you enjoy our conversation.
