These videos have been lots of fun to watch and listen to, and it's wonderful to see the magic between Billy and his wife, ,and even more so is that the videos are really very educational and inspiriing. Many times during the videos I've gotten those 'AWE' moments and questions I've never had anwers to have no been given to me! Gosh I really like Mr. And Mrs Connolly! I'd love to meet them :)) Hell I'd love to be their friends!!
Though I'm a strikt non smoker I agree with him how absurd the whole no-smoking thing is and how it is handled in comparison with other equally (possibly) dangerous things. I don't want them to smoke them near me at places I can't avoid but they should have their own places/closed rooms where they can come together and smoke in company if they want to.
Billy doesn't need to analysed by anyone....least of all his WIFE! He is what he is..he is a beautiful soul...I have to agree with him...he was born in the wrong time, wrong century....he is a sage. Billy, we love you!
he is right about painting,i sit an worry about what i am going to paint ,and then worry if it looks good,but then it comes out better then i exspected.
yes but therapy seems hard to get in the uk. I have manic depression/bipolar disorder, and I wanted to attend therapy - so I applied at the psychologists - who said I needed to be referred to the facility by a GP, so i had to go to the GP, but they gave me more pills and assigned me to a 'councelor' which I thought would have been more to do with a social grievance and I don't need to 'talk' my issues away or my disorder I would like the beneficial therapy billy describes in this vid.
this is how it works - you have to prove your depressed in some ridiculous way or they won't give you medication. Then if you ring a psychologists they say that you have to be referred by a GP. But the GP don't give you adequate thearpy and only give you cheap medication that plays havoc with your metabolism, then they refer you to a GP-'councellor' (not a therapist). Lets getthis straight I dont have family problems I have depression.
@jackleemate So true! He and George Carlin can/could see the absolute obvious but that most of us never see. Their grasp on the obvious is staggering. Both brilliant men.
i lvoe how he discribes cigars, theres such an...innocence in it, i dont mean that disrespectfully as if hes being nieve or silly. But he has such a lovely no nonsense attitude.
Fantastic! Laughing like a drain! Lane for drunk drivers! No one has a higher horse than me!
I am a writer and I have never had an idea. I don't want to write or or think I should write. I have to write... its in me. I watch the words appear on paper like magic and it feels like magic.
I loved listening to Pamela laughing. This is still first love. I wish the world was like Billy
Billy Connolly is amazing.. If I could have one wish fulfilled, it would be spending a day with this man, smoking cigars and listening to his stories..
Thanks for putting these up - I knew a lot about the things Billy was talking about but some of it was new to me. And it's great to see him looking so well as I hadn't seen anything of him in a while. He is still the only man who makes me laugh my head off every time I see him do stand up and it is humbling that he is so open about himself. I really enjoyed these so thanks a lot.
What a beautiful couple :)

I honestly feel that the only reason Connolly is a comedian is that there exists no profession for 'talking about your life'.
He's a hero.

I was about to make a short comment on the "lane for drunk drivers" bit.
I am an aspiring writer also who does mainly comedy(I try to be serious but thats just the way I am)
and what you said hit the nail on the head!
thanks for that !
Even if I'm never published or even in the slightest bit adulated or recognised I will still continue to do it and more importantly enjoy it!
I'll even concede that I may be totally shite at it(well my spelling and punctuation needs some work at the very least!)
