Billy by Pamela Stephenson

I love Billy Connolly, and this takes us from his childhood, life as a welder, music/comedy/film career and two marriages. Lots of comic exerpts. Maybe not great writing, but good enough for an entertaining read.

Billy by Pamela Stephenson

interesting book, funny and touching, warts and all with dark revelations. Written by his wife the comedian.

Bravemouth: Living with Billy Connolly by Pamela Stephenson Connolly

There's not a lot of point to this book, more like out-takes from 'Billy'. Readable but lightweight, read 'Billy' it's a great book, this not so much.

Billy by Pamela Stephenson

A charming and easy-to-read telling of Billy Connolly's life. Learn with awe of his meteoric rise from poverty and child abuse to fame and success. I love his acting and having learned more about his life, I feel like I can honestly say I love the man and what he stands for.
