John Lambies Doos Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Not sure it's a big deal tbh. It's people like Lord Kinnock that make me sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieThomas Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 He can do what he likes, and people can think of it what they like. I think he's a ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Pretty sure he used to say that he couldn't stand people who laugh at their own jokes. Probably a few minutes before cracking himself up, as per. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Some of his early stuff was brilliant. He wasn’t always a c**t, he worked up to it. In particular his totally affected accent is incredibly offputting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 We all turn into c***s in our dotage, it seems. Billy had a damned good run, and seems to have been a decent sort with strangers. If he wants to sook the arse off the landed gentry while his body turns against him, nobody can really complain. At least he isn't touching weans. Naturally, what this thread really needs is anecdotes about the Big Yin drowning kittens and such, so get it done, people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I read this as, 'The Big Yin is Gone' and for whatever reason, thought Trump had been impeached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I’ve never met anyone in real life who doesn’t like Billy Connolly yet every time he’s mentioned on here people queue up to say how much they hate him. Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Just now, Granny Danger said: It didn’t happen in his dotage, it happened when he was about 50. Aye? I believe I mentioned something about anecdotes...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Not sure it's a big deal tbh. It's people like Lord Kinnock that make me sick. Why? I don't like the concept of the Lords, but if everyone who ever represented a left of centre party refused to participate, it just makes it easier for the Tories to impose policy.

invergowrie arab Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I don't have any issue with the nation bestowing an award on someone who has achieved a lot or made a contribution. As we live in a constitutional monarchy that's going to be a knighthood and the Order of the Hammer and Sickle will have to wait. The idea of betraying your roots or whatever is classic Scottish kaleyard, kent his father, know your place pish. I think Connolly is decent too.

The OP Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Billy Connolly is one of my boyhood heroes but I’m deeply disappointed he never told them to ram their knighthood right up their arses. Sure he’ll cope with my disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
