Jackson Booth-Millard The Pick of Billy and Bites Yer Bum were really good stand-up shows from the well-known comedian in his younger days, I was definitely looking forward to another one. Filmed in 1987, and wearing a recognisable black and white stripy suit, Billy Connolly performs at the London's Royal Albert Hall, starting with a song, and ending with one, well, a tune, and most of the show is sort of telling stories. Of course observational comedy is the main focus of the show, and the subjects he covers include when people get out of bed, smoking joints, Scotland, babies and their monitors, being afraid of swimming and scuba diving after seeing Jaws and a shark play the cello, using condoms, overhearing sex with jet lag and a box of chocolates, masturbation, an elderly couple (the man's wife named Agnes) chat, vomiting and retching, and farting. The final tune before he plays on the instrument is called "The Road the Gypsies Go", it is surprisingly peaceful listening, and from one of the finest comedians Britain has given the world. Billy Connolly was number 16 on TV's 50 Greatest Stars, he was number 8 on The Comedians' Comedian, he was number 1 on Britian's Favourite Comedian, he was number 1 on 100 Greatest Stand-Ups, and he was number 1 on 100 Greatest Stand-Ups 2010. Very good!

h_wilson92 I am not really a fan of stand up comedy but I would have to say that I really enjoyed this.I was told by my brother to watch this show and so I did.I wasn't disappointed by it at all.I wouldn't give this video a 18 certificate maybe a 15 certificate.This video had a lot of swearing in it but that was okay.I have watched this DVD a couple of times and I never stopped cracking up.I didn't laugh as hard as my brother but I really enjoyed it.All of the jokes were very funny - I had a very hard time deciding what one I liked the most but I couldn't pick one.I gave this DVD a 9 / 10 because I really enjoyed it and it was a great stand up comedy show. This has to be a must see for any stand up comedy fans

davideo-2 STAR RATING: ***** The Works **** Just Misses the Mark *** That Little Bit In Between ** Lagging Behind * The Pits The well-known and highly successful Scottish comedian performing at one of his most prestigious venues, the Royal Albert Hall, in July 1987. Connolly discusses everything, from the difficulty of pronouncing linoleum, spiders and their wily ways to the joys of masturbation and something involving Bacardi he will do 'never again.' There is an 18 certificate on the front cover of this, one of Billy Connolly's most renowned shows, along with a warning about containing material that could offend some viewers. But personally I'd have just done away with this and given it a 15 certificate, because there's really nothing overly rude or offensive in the whole thing, especially in the light of other, more adult comedians.But that aside, I've been trying to get into stand-up comedy a bit more lately and this first BC outing I've witnessed, I'm sorry to say, didn't impress me that much. I've been trying to get into Jim Davidson a bit more (not literally, of course) lately as well, and I've just found his stand-up shows generally more hilarious than Billy's. None of the jokes really struck me and I failed to find it funny in any way, apart from one or two gags which raised a mild chuckle. Plus Billy appears through-out in a white coat and trousers with black stripes running down them, along with his long, frizzy goatee beard (facially, he reminds me a little of my old martial arts teacher.)To be fair, it has to be said that Connolly does have a natural rapport with his audience and he is a fairly engaging guy to see stand and listen to talking. Maybe I don't understand Scottish humour that well, heck, maybe I'm a bit too young to grasp it, but at the moment anyway, this one just didn't strike a chord with me. **
