Billy Connolly's art ❯ www.castlefineart.com/artists... - Komedie
Best comedian ever.....starts a story then drifts off for an hour then brings it back in in hilarious form. We in Scotland are so proud of Billy
Why? He couldn't wait to leave.
@@TonyEnglandUK he still owned property in scotland. Think he had an old statley manor home
I'd say your country has far more to be proud of, rather than a sometimes funny, comedienne. (you should've paid more attention in your History class.) Regards from Canada.
@@someoneelse.2252 he's a national treasure here in Scotland, will be a sad day when he's gone,but I know what you mean with what Scotland has gave to the world
That we are, so proud of Billy
I’ve heard this story probably fifty times. It still makes me cry laughing every time.
yeap
He's so good at putting you ON THAT bus 😂😂
'I don't know how old....the kind of woman you would say; look at that old woman'
😆 😂 😅 crying here!
Billy Connolly Is The Greatest Stand Up Comedian Of All Time. 😂🤣
Absofuckinglutley true !!
He and Eddy Murphy are my favs
With out a doubt. 😜
Calm down. Yes he's amazing and one of the greats. But calm down with the greatest ever.
@@djsuave1 nah dude, he is the greatest stand up ever.
I saw this tour in Perth Western Australia. I laughed so hard, I took the day off the next day. When I woke up in the morning, it hurt to just to breath, I felt like I had broken ribs.
I saw him in Perth too and my face hurt from constantly laughing
Probably the best story teller ever!. As he's describing it, you can see it which makes it even funnier! Thankyou Billy.
I'm actually having a hard time picturing what's meant to be happening...
And I love that he just goes off on 10 minute tangents and then comes back to the original story
@@Trapsarentgay133 The beauty of it was you could remember what he was talking about when he did go back!..... 🤣🤣
Rob ,it's actually happening in front of me ,That's how good the bloke is ..So 100% agree mate ..i wet myself a tad laughing though 🤦♂️
Right on point! During the story I'm literally on that bus with him and the old lady laughing and crying - GENIUS!
By now she's on her 150th lap around the planet... and we're still laughing. Godspeed, old lady. Please, never stop running. 🤣🤣🤣
😂
To my disgrace,i just found out about Billy connoly. When i heard the bus story, i was in stiches. The way he tells a story...amazing.
The best there’s ever been, a natural comedic genius. No one makes me cry with laughter like Billy.
He's Always on point
Sir Billy Connolly deserves a monument
My Uncle Harry was a Glaswegian ....I knew him from the day I was born and he had the same amazing ability to make me laugh till I cried . We were sitting in a restaurant and he had ordered sole ..... finished in a flash....held up the full bones remains and asked the maitre de for a refill ! Love you all . Unfortunately I am frae Dundee !
It's just masterly how he paints that scene. Everytime I laugh so much it hurts.
I don't know how many times I've watched this video and it still makes me laugh 😂
Funny 😆
Funniest story in history. What happened to the poor old lady? I picture an elderly vicar, in one of those tiny, tiny cars, coming across her in a ditch beside the road about 30 minutes later with the shopping bag still on her arm.
Same, just when I think I've worn out my funny bone on it, I watch it again a year later and cry laughing
yes, the funniest story ever
same everytime ❤
No matter how many times you hear his stories you always almost die laughing. Brilliant story teller.
Man.. Me and my dad would laugh at Billy's comedian jokes all the time. Sadly, my dad passed away, and I still watch Billy's jokes to keep a memory of my dad.
That's lovely ❤
Your dad had a good soh ❤
Hbgod 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Absolutely f****n priceless, I spent years at RAF Lossiemouth and loved the language from my mates to the cleaners. Priceless totally priceless.
This has tears rolling down my cheeks 😂😂😂😂
As a Clydebank boy i know the exact place he's talking about 🤣
My great grandparents on both sides of my family were from Clydebank so hooray for Clydebank!
I remember someone jumping off the back of the bus when I was wee. People used to jump off at this one particular roundabout when the bus was going slow but this time it was going quickly and the guy jumped off and like billy says this guy was running really fast trying to stop and WHACK!!! straight into a lamp post.
That one will stay with me forever
Ah, that used to happen to us as kids far too often lol. I've seen more than a couple of people collide with the lampost after trying to get off too soon 🤣 I think they're why TfL got rid of the Routemasters!
You have to wonder at Billy’s imagination on how he thinks of these things. The way he sell it to us like kids sat in a circle listening to a story. You get so sucked in by his words and his delivery and comedy is timeless. The tears and laughter start to hurt your stomach from the hilarity of this old lady on the bus and his quiet reasoning. Is she running still? 🤣🤣🤣
Just a unique performer. Nobody out there close can touch our BIlly ever
I think he's not making up the stories
@@ryanfindlay599 either made up or stolen, most of his early jokes were taken from the shipyards were he worked as a welder. still funny tho
haha u should visit glasgow's building sites the way he tells a story isnt unique and the stories were passed down from tradesmen to tradesmen kinda haha but billy is still funny as fuck
@@vVyohasakuraVv eh Ken the story mate ,I'm fae dundee lol ,was working in Glasgow last month ,fuckin love banter ,nae cunt takes anything to serious 👍🏻🏴
wouldnt surprise me if hes like bob mortimer on would i lie to you & everythings actually true and did happen lol would be amazing
You know when you laugh so hard you cry and you hurt at the same time.... Well Billy always has me that way
I don’t know how many times I’ve heard this, yet I’m crying laughing again🤣🤣🤣
I know, I know. I practically suffocate because I can't draw breath I laugh so hard.🤣🤣🤣
I should have gone to bed an hour ago but here I am watching the best comedian of all time
Just for the record, I nearly suffocated by laughing at this the first time I saw/listened to it and pictured it in my head.....
Billy Connelly the greatest comedian of all time. The Muhammad Ali of comedy. In the early 2000’s I suffered from PTSD and depression and watching Billy really got me through. There is no better cure then a bit of Billy to lift your day up.
The driver going "oh for fuck's sake" gets me EVERY time
Would love to sit around a campfire with some good weed and hear him tell stories!
"Where did she run to?...Is she running still?" I cant count how many times I've heard this line and it still cracks me up 🤣 It's right up there with Tommy Tiernan's Declan Moffatt story 🤣🤣
Nobody makes me laugh like Billy Connolly
One of the funniest stories ever told by a true legend. Bloody brilliant stuff!
I remember the first time I heard this story, was almost on the floor laughing. Brilliant.
It's an utter joy of life to hear New York Americans completely beside themselves at this - I was brought up with 'our Billy' and I have totally lost control of my functions before now, in so much pain, not able to breath, and for these folks to get him is so wonderful. Thanks, Big Yin.
being a Scot who immigrated to NZ in '77, but was immersed in Billy humour (on LP) and having vivid memories of the places he talks about, you really are transported right to where he is talking about and living it as he's relaying it. Makes it all the funnier.
It doesn’t matter how many times I hear this… it always makes me laugh so much it hurts. 😂
I'm crying 😂😂😂
The fact he wonders about the characters in his stories 😂❤
I have everything that Billy has done, and no matter how many times I have watched them I end up crying with laughter. Best comedian ever 😂
Even though I've heard it before, I'm in tears again ... 😂😂😂
And yet.. wondering what happened to the poor old lady... 🤔. Did she have a chance to get any older? We'll never know..
But this story somehow makes her immortal.. 🙂
Na mate, she was running so fast she did a Flash and turned back the clock, she's now 25 again and out living it up in Ibiza.
My favourite uncle Sandy comes to mind. He could tell a tale just like this. He once told one about the guy whose coat got stuck in the bus door...I actually ran away because I was wetting myself, at age 9... bless you Sandy, long gone but great memories.
I was in the second row for this show, it was amazing, stayed after and got to meet Billy after, spoke to him for about 1/2 hour, he's amazing
Total legend. One of the only stand ups I can listen to for hours..
I literally cry with laughter every time I watch this 😂
“The kind of woman you would say “look at that old woman””. Makes me laugh out loud every time. 😂
I've been laughing along with this Gent since the 70's, so so very funny.
Watching BILLY he will have me in stitches no matter
What time of day or night I watch him.
We don’t have comedians like that anymore he’s a legend.
Literally crying with laughter. That one is better than’ the swing’
he always makes me do the evil giggle that wont stop
oh hi bill hope your feeling alright today
WE NEED MORE BILLY.
just sayin 😄
"An old woman... An older woman... I dunno how old(?) The kinda woman you would say, "Look at that old woman!"😂
My great grandparents on both sides of my family were from Clydebank so hooray for Clydebank.
Such a masterpiece telling of such a simple story, comedy legend
one of my favorite stand up jokes of all time.... what a master.... and oh how I hope this story is true
If you’ve ever had the misfortune to be on a Glesga bus, you’ll know this is true! 😂😂
Classic Sir Billy Connolly , telling his real life stories with such fantastic humour. What a one off comic genius this guy is and always will be forever
Reminds me of Michael Crawford as Frank on roller skates behind a double decker bus in the 80s and that went one way, Frank went the other
Still gets me this one.... one of my all time favourites.
This bit puts me in stitches everytime, tears down my face and a belly ache from laughing too damn hard!!!
He's right about glasgow and liverpool having that unique sense of humour. But I would add my town Belfast & working class dublin.
This is my favourite story of his 🖤🖤🖤 I'm so glad I found it. Totally needed a smile 🖤✌️
This is the bit that made me love billy, this made me laugh harder that ever before when I first watched it
Brilliant! I piss myself each and every time I listen to this. I just found out the other day by watching a documentary about Billy Conley but he never wrote jokes he just kept a list of words or ideas next to him on stage and told stories from those words and ideas. Brilliant!
I used to have a vcr video of one of Billy’s standups my uncle gave me when I was 18 and I played it over and over again. It never failed it make me laugh even though I could’ve acted it out 😂 got me through some dark days ❤
"isn't it Hellish?" 😭😭😭
The funniest comedian ever.best show I've ever been to,my face literally ached on the way home 😂😂
I remember when a worked for British rail at Newcastle station. A guy opened a door on a train pulling into the platform.he tried to jump off the train before it stopped,but his bag got stuck on the inside of the door and he had to run alongside the carriage at 35 mph until the train stopped. It was f@@king hilarious.
If it was pulling into the platform, it wasn't doing 35mph. More like 5mph.
Though I've seen that happen too in London back when I used to ride the clickety-clack every day and it's still funny.
As soon as I read the title I knew t was gonna be a good one and he didn't disappoint! Laughed til I cried and laughed some more. I just love him.
dear lord; ive seen this a million times and i still have to be careful not to be drinking my tea otherwise it goes up my nose.
Billy Connolly! Is there anyone funnier? All things are relative and there´s so many varieyties of comics. Billy tells stories. Another one of my favs is Eddie Izzard. A bit more " intellectual " but you keep smilinng through the whole show. And of course Robin Williams!! What a brilliant mind! His associations were fast as lightning! I´m Swedish so I didn´t always followed, he were so QUICK! Misss you Robin, too soon...
Nobody tells a story like billy 😂😂
a good sense of humour is essential in Scotland. In some places like the highlands You will not make it through the winter unless you can engage In banter. The Scots are more than aware of how the weather can be miserable despite the season, the appropriate term is Dreak. Its ment to describe a certain type of scottish weather thats made up of about 3 seperate recognised type off different kinds of weather that all come together to form dreak. The thick fog reduces light to make a very gloomy darkness, usually cold which causes horrible soggy hanging water vapour to precipitate and the tiny drops are noe liquid form and your cloths will suck it all up in minutes and of course good old fashioned rain. maybe ice in the colder months. And in reply to any negative comments about the weather from a tourist, its Scottish weather and in this country there is no such thing as bad weather just different types good weather. And my favourite. I love summer time in Scotland its the best day of the year.
Dreich is the word you are attempting to describe, not dreak.
@@RE-mm3nw spell not describe ☺️
This always has me laughing too much at 4.34 and him saying “I looked up and she was gone”
I’m lost now with my body shaking with laughter after that point.
I haven't laughed that much for ages 🤣
It's not just the way he tells it. It's the images in your head.
This had me crying
There have been many great live shows over the years but I have enjoyed most but somtimes Billy just hits that sweet spot holds there. I have a show in mind that was in my opinion That was towards the end of live show era. I think the tour was called was it somthing I said. At that time i remember we went through one of the first periods where political correction was being flung around and so when took that tour to Australia, He had complete freedom of speech and no restrictions and he ripped into everyone and everything and just cut lose. That night Billy Connolly turned the clocks back 20 odd years that night a proved again that even after 30 odd years he was still number one and he always will be.
I think you misunderstand what being 'policitically correct' means. It means not being an ass to people. And Billy was NEVER an ass to people. There's not a racist/sexist/ageist/disablist/homophobic bone in the man's body. He's ALWAYS had complete 'freedom of speech' and has always used it. He's just never needed to disrespect someone with his humour.
That story reminded me of my days as a milkboy in the 70’s in Dundee and seeing Stuart Smith doing the exact same thing off the back of the lorry when we were doing 30mph. It was hilarious. Unfortunately he got badly injured.
I work as a security guard in my city. And when he starts the story that it was "the most awful thing ever... but funny" best stories ever for around the campfire 😆
You're such a legend
No other comedian makes me laugh so hard that I stop breathing.
I've done that, flying off the bus, took a couple of huge steps before landing hard on my face. Cobbled haim, I might have needed a few stitches, which back then in Glasgow was a great day, maybe two of getting spoiled. I always remember hanging on to the exit pole, leaning out as the bus swirled around corners. Best buses in the world!
2023 and this is probably one of the best stories I’ve ever heard! Comedy gold, thanks Billy !
My favourites, 30+ years later, are still the jokes about the 'Incontinence Pants' and the 'Wildebeest'. I cried with laughter the first time I heard them. I still do.

A wee drop of magic
Aye. ❤️🏴
Love Billy forEVER....the finest story teller you end up on the floor listening to, in a total hysterical collapse..The best..the only...the Big Yin..God bless you for years of laughter Billy..
It used to be a game for us as kids, to wait on the back platform for the bus to take a bend to the right, and jump off running… Skint knees aplenty!
He’s just the best story teller!
one of the funniest jokes he has ever done.
at 4:25...."i looked up and she was gone"!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The funniest joke he ever did was on an early appearance on Parkinson. The one with the bike. 😁😁
Is she running still...the perfect final line. How did he consistently come up with new material of this quality for decades?
Absolutely hilarious. He has to be the funniest storyteller ever ! I love him.
We love you Billy ❤.
I haven’t laughed so much in a long time, you made my day fabulous 😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great, great storyteller. Thanks Billy
The first time I watched this was with my mates in my flat on a Saturday evening, we laughed so hard beer shooting out of our noses like 3 feet. It messed up our ears so much we all felt dizzy the next day morning.
I blacked out from laughter when he told the pinky story. No joke I laughed that hard. This man is a master of jokes.
Legend has it she's still running to this very day.
He's one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen and this story is one of the funniest I've ever heard 😅😅
I remember those buses
The greatest ever to do it. An absolute genius
thanks Mr. Connolly years of laughter. keep well
the way he builds his stories is genius. 😂😂😂😂
Good thing he's got a hands free set up. Love it.
I can relate to this being a retired bus driver. Many a story like this. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Uphill its Kilbowie Road. She shot into the Drum!
She Got Shot In The Drum More Like 😂
"Har crotch was about a foot off the ground". 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I pissed myself.
Now my stomach is in pain again,from laughing.
