Description
Billy Connolly's autobiography is a remarkable story of success against all the odds. Born in a Glasgow tenement flat in 1942, Billy's early life was marked by hardship and adversity, including being orphaned at just four years old and facing abuse from his own family. However, he found solace in music and comedy, becoming a folk musician and eventually a stand-up comedian known for his fearless and outspoken style. As a young comedian, Billy broke all the rules, but his stand-up was also full of warmth, humility, and silliness. His outrageous stage appearances, including his infamous 'glam-rock' look, helped him gain a massive following. After a career spanning over 50 years, Billy's live performances came to an end due to illness, but he has continued to work in TV and create art. Now, he shares his story in his own words, offering a joyfully funny and insightful look at his life.
