He is the best of all time... The thing that sets him apart from the eddie murphies and the Pryors and Carling is his ability to just be funny on the spot, He does not have a set routine every year,, He could go to the shops for a packet of biscuits then get on stage 1 hour later and have a full comedy set about it, he just stands up there and shoots the shit,,and it is always very funny.
This was his 1st time performing in USA. Whoopi wanted HBO to give him his own special. HBO said no unless Whoopi agreed to top billing out of greed. She was pissed. Watch Robin Williams bustin' a gut in front row
PLEASE THUMB THIS UP IF YOU AGREE, Lets have a petition to have billy connolly in the next years i'm a celebrity get me out of here, lets have this highest rated comment on each of his video's so we can get him in there, copy this comment and paste it on all his video's..... we want him in the jungle... he's bound to make it amazing!!! Join our facebook group "get billy connolly on i'm a celebrity get me out of here" now and get your friends to join too!!
Came back again to watch this, the funniest video I have ever seen but did not see the part about wanking, which was hilarious. Was that somehow cut out?
Thanks for this. I actually have both of his HBO specials on VHS but you can imagine the quality being about 20 years old and viewed 10,000 times each.
although i remember being sat on a plane recently (having watched this half a year previously to the flight so i'd pretty much forgotten about it!) and as the steward/ess (not sure who) stood up and did the safety brief all i saw was the part in this "heading upside down towards the atlantic ocean, I'm alright..." embarrassingly enough i laughed out loud on the plane....attention was draw to me for a few mins....
can anybody please tell me where i can find the one where billy is in a pub making hilarious bodily noises??? i havent been able to find it on youtube so if anybody can help that'd be brilliant
I think that's the HBO special that was right after this one. If i remember correctly, this was a special with Whoopie Goldberg on before, or after him.
I saw this video a long time ago on Tv and i recorded on Beta. I loved it then and love it even more now..Where is the rest of the show? I'd love to watch the whole show again. Somebody, please help.
I live, eat and breathe Billy. There isn't a moment in any given day were you can't find a suitable remark of his. He is unequalled an the the dogs b*****ks. This is a classic. Look out for the 'restaurant menu' sketch too.
Does anyone have the ENTIRE performance on either video or audio? I have a copy on audio, but there is a glitch in it where someone switched the channel briefly during recording.
Plus, the videos here, while great, lack the "wanking" bit and at least one other. Any help would be great!
Can ANYONE find out where to buy this? I had a copy of it years ago and loaned it out...arghhhh. Anyway, its a Whoopi Goldberg HBO special and I've looked everywhere!!
I've been looking for this one for a while... this might be one of the best comedy sketches of all time.. what a way to break into the American market ! This whole special is fucking hilarious..
Des mclean goes to see his doctor, he says "Doctor I just don't feel whole, I just don't feel complete anymore!" His doctor says "Drink this!" Des says "Yuck! It tastes like sh*t!" The doctor says "It is sh*t, you just need topping up!"

everytime i watch billy i fall in comedy love with him...he is my ultimate favourite..the only other comedian who is close to his genius is Dylan Moran..
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
yep, pretty shit comedy really, when he's performing to british, aussie or nz audiences he can get away with lots more, americans have a fucked up sense of humour along with their lazy use of the english language, american humour is on a par with german humour and we all know their sense of humour is starting 2 world wars for a laugh
i fuckin love this guy hes one of the quickest, funniest fellas ever to live with one of the best classic personalities. i have his book that his wife wrote :D
Hey.. My native language is not english and (also, teh fact that he is a scotsman) I cant understand some parts of it, and I think I'm loosing too much! Does anybody know how can i find the transcript?
man that sucks that you cant understand him. i dont think a transcript would really help, alot of his words he says so fast and cut short it would be impossible to understand. you should just watch as much as you can, you will pic it up.
no actually you idiot. hes very easy to understand. if you couldnt understand him becasue he talked so fast he wouldnt be a world famous friggin comedian now would he? youre just being arrogant cause you dont like his comedy.
an attitude like that?? what the hell are you talking about??? a guy asked if there was a transcript, and i told him no, but if he watches more of him then he would soon be able to understand him. what attitude are you talking about???
When will Nessie give this man the Blues? And can I be of assistance in teaching her some nasty tricks beforehand? How about warming up "rectal" Bill with an independent Scottish flag?
this is one of my favourite's of Billy..(he's making me hyperventilate)..i actually have most of his material programmed in my head through years of watching him, he's been a kind of laughter therapy.. which perhaps is the reason why i say fuck so much more than i used to..!
what you said cracked me up coz i have whole reels of bill's jokes circulating in my head...you can find me laughing out loud unnerving all those close by!
I have been searching for this performance for YEARS!!! You have no idea how excited I am to even find 4 minutes of it! Any way I can get the full video that you know of? It's my mom and I's favorite comedy bit of all time, and my brother lost our only copy of it years ago! Thanks for posting this much at least!
