William "Billy" Connolly, CBE, D.Litt (born 24 November, 1942) is a comedian, musician, presenter, and actor. He is sometimes known, especially in his native Scotland, by the nickname "The Big Yin" ("The Big One", a reference to his height).
Billy Connolly was born at 65 Dover Street ("on the linoleum, three floors up") in Glasgow, Scotland, to Mary and William Connolly, the son of an Irish immigrant. In 1946, with their son barely four years old, Connolly's parents divorced. He and his sister, Florence ("Flo"), would be looked after by two aunts, Margaret and Mona, his father's sisters.
