Billy Connolly Live

A compendium of the legendary Scottish stand-up\342\u20ac\u2122s finest live moments, Billy Connolly\342\u20ac\u2122s Greatest Hits takes us on an odyssey of ridiculous facial hair and fart gags that spans almost 25 years. We start in 1975 with the Big Yin sporting his famous outsize banana boots and follow our man as he matures from an endearing gag merchant into a skilful observational master. Connolly\342\u20ac\u2122s appeal has always been that of the engaging bloke down the pub: you don\342\u20ac\u2122t so much laugh along with the material as get caught up in the hysteria as tangents follow tangents and the plot is lost in a fit of giggles. Almost uniquely in the dark days of the mid 70s, Connolly always had a sense of decorum in his stage act, even when his material was predominantly about swearing, shagging and ”jobbies”. He was never hateful or motivated by prejudice, preferring instead to cast a bemused child\342\u20ac\u2122s eye upon the stupidity of the world. The highlights are gentle if occasionally crude: Billy\342\u20ac\u2122s guide to ”more fulfilling masturbation”, thoughts on plastic surgery and the evil of Toblerone. Billy even muses about ageing which is interesting as this video proves he\342\u20ac\u2122s been a gloriously overgrown teenager all along
