The Big Yin has been knighted in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List. And as anyone who has ever seen him live will attest, the man is a natural comedy genius. And apparently he always was. Many years before this record went to No.1, my Uncle Pat – my dad’s brother-in-law – worked with Billy Connolly in the shipyards on the Clyde. He said that you always knew where Billy was because you’d hear people laughing. Isn’t that the most wonderful way to be remembered? Far better than a knighthood.
Sir Billy Connolly.
