Billy Connolly 1990 (2 of 4)

[DeNiroFan85]

Billy RULES! Absolutely hilarious man!

[nengstro]

How can this be 1990....On other clips from the 80's he looks older...

[schitzophrenicJesus]

thumbs up if you got a dreadful case of itchy arse after watching this :)

[nbrigham58]

I saw an interview with him and he said he only has an opening sentence when he walks onto stage. Amazingly funny.

[JBird1964]

@MatthewCeltic1991121 With subtitles on my dvd, its "I will have a sleep with Nigel." :)

[NatalyaNeidhart]

@JBird1964 well the subtitles are wrong

[JBird1964]

@NatalyaNeidhart Is everyone deaf and cant understand a Scottish accent? It's clearly "with" and not "it"...listen to it...

[NatalyaNeidhart]

@JBird1964 i am scottish u tit

[JBird1964]

@NatalyaNeidhart Aye, and if you were Scottish you would hear "with" and not "it", ya twit...now will we have a war of words because 2 Scots hear different words or shall we just enjoy some brilliant humor?

Saor Alba!

[NatalyaNeidhart]

@JBird1964 orite en pal :)

[whaddefuxx]

1:28 = best aeroplane impersonation ever.

[Strawberrycream69]

[JBird1964]

Oh fuck, I think I will have a sleep with Nigel.....LOLOL

[ooonurse33]

ok is anyone else's ass itchy now? lol

[stb1979]

I like his old stuff better than new :) Not that he doesn't have funny stuff now but... not the same.

[Star4BO]

I remember when Whoopi introduced Billy in this HBO special! Thanks for putting this priceless footage up because this is still great comedy!! Bet it was hard to come to the States from another Country and wonder if the humor could be relatable. Billy is still one of my favs! Thanks again komedycuts

[weekilpat]

Fuck off reg! lol XD

[dnhug]

hooray for billy and "nigel grothers" hahahahaha

cheers lads

[Cathain78]

[skitzonacid]

[Archigearour]

BUDDY HOLLY AEROPLANES HAHAHAHAHA.

[sidedoorjohnny]

I really appreciate this being put up. I remember it from many years ago, I even remember Whoopi being damn funny as she warmed up the croud. I had a tape, it too disappeared. I love the queen bit with the ichy ass and the glue dryin on the wings line. Pure brilliance!!! Thanks again for putting this up. Really enjoyed watching it again.

[GerryBolger]

Times may change but standard's must remain,,, class..

[WhoseLineBabygirl]

"go away....itchy ass!" lmao!!!

[noonienotjune]

love nigel ha ha ha...x...Noonie

[goooch42]

I have e-mailed the brooklyn academy of music where it was filmed and HBO who aired it, asking where I can buy a copy; Not even the courtesy of a reply. I had a copy and lent it to someone who threw it out by mistake; I still don't speak to that person

[aidenmccloskey]

@goooch42

you're a true Scot! ...and if you're not a son of Scotland, you're a true Irishman!! ...and if you're neither, then YOUR ONE LOYAL FAN.

from another half true scotsman, half irishman and one loyal fan.

[goooch42]

100% irish Aiden and still watch this special over and over. You couldn't imagine my excitement when someone told me it was on you tube.

[aidenmccloskey]

man, you're lucky. i'd rather be 100% irish. my family on both sides immigrated to scotland during the famine.

i think i'll immigrate over to ireland in less than a decades time. it's always good to be proud of your familys timeline. i'm proud of my heritage.

billy connolly's a legend. i get a billy connolly dvd once a year, when crimbo comes. that's my excitement, haha.

[Cathain78]

@aidenmccloskey

Maith an fearr

[thepunkfish109]

Although I hate that you lost your copy, I love that 8 people (9 now) have "thumbs-up-ed" you're comment, hah.

[tyler0896]

"those thong ...fffffuckin things"

that exact pronunciation of "fffffuckin things" has been in my vocabulary for my whole life!

When a girl wears weird socks i call them "those foot ....fffffucking things". Or if her tits are small and ugly I say "those bra ......fffffuckin things"

[rustwell]

"be maimed instead of f*ckin dead" ..... rofl!

[ranbrent]

itchy arse,go Away

[crapingalien]

[wolfgirl996]

ROTFL!! XD brilliant!

[fatgirl1935]

" Ah, fuck I think I'll have a sleep it's Nigel"! I say that every time we board a plane...hahahahaha!!

[SnapeGirlUSA]

Almost TWENTY years later, my husband and I still quote almost every bit of this performance. Classic and soooo hilarious. ;)

[KahunaQwest]

I loved Nigel Cruthers I think about him

every time i Fly lol.....

[benpubaaa]

brilliant

[teebee1984]

I think I've wet myself. That was so funny!

[lastflowers21]

billy and carlin compete for the top spot of comedian in my mind

[shoebomber3]

and Billy Hicks surely??

[Tait011]

Billy for Europe, and Bill for USA.

i dont think that will ever change to be honest..

Peace all.

[komedycuts]

Ironically Bill Hicks was actually way bigger in the UK than he ever was over here. In the states he was a struggling touring comic, across the pond he was a headlining megastar filling huge venues.

And of course everyone is entitled to have their own different rankings of favorite comics.

[HiFi501]

lol you could smell the glue drying on the wing!!

[kippa2222]

id love to see the queen scratch her arse

[LIVERLADD]

LMAO!! Nigel Cruthers lol

[ivintheterrible]

billy connolly makes me feel brill

he puts life into a perspective that mobody can disagree with.

hes a really god, and nobody can deny it

[TexanRebel08]

this guy will hurt you, im scared of busting a gut and needing surgery, this guy is in my top 3 as a comedian

[DMEB]

who's your top three if i may ask?

[TexanRebel08]

I spoke to soon this guy is my favorite

[Mvanderlande]

Questioning the simple things in live. And putting a magnifying glass over it, take us by the hand and let us join his observations and wondering about (wee) things, briljunt! And telling it in his own words in his own non-restricted way. One of very few comedians and/or people who can make me laugh. Cheers!

[mikeymcc1986]

Carruthers actually jim

[xxsweetxbabexx]

lmfao

[linkinparksno1fan]

cheery fukin' O !! XD luved it lmao!!

[KozmoKorn]

Fuck off, Reg

[Peach2ftw]

cunny funt

[dellahoyasmc]

[ProfessorIgor]

Nigel Carruthers...  didn't he race in Formula 1 ? LOL

[PhilinBC]

Nigel Mansel was the F1 Driver.

[ProfessorIgor]

I was being sarcastic... I am very familiar with Il Lione'.

[PhilinBC]

lol ok. my bad

[jogally]

Genius a new routine every show.....

[walnutwhip2345]

I love that "theres an interesting cloud formation lets go over and have a look"

[RexFluffington]

HELP I need to get this entire routine for my parents for christmas on either vhs or dvd if possible, we had a recording of it when I was growing up but it is long gone. this would be an absolute home run of a gift PLEASE HELP GUIDE ME IF YOU CAN!!!! thanks

[tmredwood]

did you try ebay?

[RexFluffington]

yup, I have searched high and low, I still have not found it, I heard hbo is going to eventually release alot of the old comedy stuff but this one is way down on the list.

[artstudent07]

Like Newport then, lol! but the people aren't that nice and the place is nice lmao!

[Swindlbee]

which Newport?

[MEMORIES59]

I feel the same way about Gynecologists - Nigel Carruthers (the very experienced specialist) has never had/wanted/or would comtemplate sex - so he's the very man fer the job!

[JonofCardiff]

rofl

"i think i'll have a sleep, it's nijel!"

[toddspin]

[kerrpy24vim]
