Who ever doesn't like this has not a shred of a sense of humour. I cant stop watching this, its masterful and hilarious!!! Definatley should be watched by all.

Brilliant really doesn't begin to describe, you will enjoy this!!

This is the funniest DVD for a while. Sometimes his sketches are hit and miss, always funny but sometimes a bit OTT or aggressive but I thought this was superb, had me in stitches all the way through. If you like Billy you'll love this.

Dont take any notice of the previous comment/reviews, this is Billy Connolly at his best. I love this guy, always has me rolling with laughter and this DVD is no different. Keep goin Billy, your are the only one that keeps people laughing year after year!

Found the DVD apalling. Swearing not necessary as I have heard Billy on many occasions extremely funny without the F... word almost constantly. Sat down to watch DVD New Year's eve to have a good laugh. Ended up wondering where the Billy Connolly I knew had gone. Only kept the DVD for posterity.

I have some of Billys stuff from the 70's and it always makes me fall off my chair with laughter everytime I hear it ( the Red wine bottles sketch, Last train from Glasgow Central, The Crucifixion ) This DVD raised a smile but no way was it the belly laughter we all know and love from Billy. I only got the DVD in the sales as I refused to pay £13.99 for a DVD that was recorded in 2006, over a year ago!!! I see this as a very cynical way for Billy's managment company to make a fast buck from loyal fans from material that was recorded over a year ago, also can anyone tell me why most comedy DVD have no subtitles?? Roy Chubby Brown, Billy to name just two, would be very grateful if anyone can shed some light!!! Cheers!!!

Dissapointing. I bought this based on the fact that the two old vhs tapes of his stand-up were extreamly funny. This however, is a completely different story. With an established comedian like Billy, you expect him to be able to talk about one subject for a long period of time and more or less making you laugh all the way through - something his old stand up did. In this dvd however, he drags unfunny, repetitive material on for way longer that he should do, finding yourself waiting in silence for him to talk about something different, only to find that this isnt funny either. A comedian I never expected to become old-hat, has become just that.

Hilarious, the show is approx 2hrs long but it took me 2.5hrs to watch it thru as I had to keep rewinding bits as I couldn't hear it for laughing! Coming from Glasgow, I can relate to some of the tales Billy recalls. The imagery he conjures up in your mind through his brilliant act of storytelling is brilliant, genuis.
Buy it, get your pals round & have a great laugh at, in my opinion, one of the best stand up story tellers I have ever seen.

for any other comedian, this set would have scored 5 stars. but this is billy connolly, probably the best comedian britian has produced, who has set the bar with many of his previous releases. this new one is not as good as some of his best earlier work (an audience with, bites yer bum etc) - but it is still a damn good show. in fact, it is probably the best he has done in about 10 years (at least judging from what's availiable as official videos). when I picked up australia 99 I thought his career was over, but I regained faith after dublin 2002 and new york 2005, and this new one is much much better than any of the previous two.
his style has changed somewhat over the years, but what do you expect as the man gets older?

many classic moments here; the bit about his wife and the house as well as the bit about "the worst pain known to man" are truly classic

buy it!!

I disagree with some of the reviews here - i thought this was hilarious. I very much like the fact that Billy is a bit older and wiser now. The fact that he has now worked with some very famous people, it makes it all the more daring when he shouts his point of view and displays edge on stage.

It's great to see an uptodate live show from Billy too, quite often the old material is dated and so it keeps things fresh. My advice is if you have bought this DVD and hate it like some people here, wrap it up and give it to somebody this Christmas, because i'm sure that they'd "love it!"

While not quite as good as Billy Connolly Live In New York it's definalty one worth having in your collection,Great Stocking Filler
