More #truths from #TheBigYin via his wife Pamela.
Billy Connolly: Old age is a weird and nasty surprise. I don’t know if we should tell people about it https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/2023/10/03/billy-connolly-old-age-is-a-weird-and-nasty-surprise-i-dont-know-if-we-should-tell-people-about-it/
#TheBigYin - #Scottish #NationalTreasure. Alive and doing well (sort of) in Key West.
Billy Connolly’s most intimate interview yet (by his wife): ‘Comedians never used to worry about what was correct to say. You said it, and soon found out’ https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2023/sep/30/billy-connolly-interview-pamela-stephenson-connolly?CMP=share_btn_tw
Only one person can get to the heart of who the Big Yin is – his partner and carer, psychotherapist Pamela Stephenson Connolly. He talks about how Parkinson’s has changed him, what he misses from being on tour, and living in a hotbed of Trump supporters in Florida
Day 23. One to go!
My offering to you today is this.
"Billy Connolly" 40cm x 30cm. 2021.
There have been 5 voices that I've grown up with.
In order: Brian Cant, Bernard Cribbins, James Burke, David Attenborough & Billy Connolly. (You may know some of these voices yourself). To me, the sounds of these voices are just as important as what they say.
