I absolutely loved this, I think it was released in 1994. Billy probably isn’t long for this world, but he has brought such joy to literally millions of people. He is an utter genius and we need to cherish him. Thank you for everything Billy.

[@peterbrown9451]

World tour of Australia -1994. World Tour of Scotland - 1995. I was born in 1995 and have been raised with Billy ever since lol

[@Helios601]

Genius 😂😂

[@irbennett]

At least you mentioned the video, then spoilt it by talking bollocks.

[@hugo2216]

Not only the Capital of Scotland but by far the bonniest and wealthiest city in Scotland.

[@LORDOFTOTOKYO2]

Watched this when i was a boy living in Scotland, still watching all these years later living in Australia with my own kids...thank you billy for everything you have given me over the years... its the Scotland i remember that i can now pass onto my family.

[@audspod1]

Imagine Billy as your tour guide!! I would love that.

[@mlad9944]

Just the best. Good on you Billy. You helped me iron my shirts for 20 years. This video series got me through the mind-numbing drudgery of ironing my shirts.

[@fatwalletboy2]

This series is a gem of television.

[@glennhopkins2643]

Scotland yeah !!!

Ah thanks for posting this! My favourite travel shows ever, still think about them often. Billy’s world tours taught me how to love people in all their wonderful peculiarities. 💙

[@introspectivedreamer3864]

Hi Catharine I'll second that, this is great, never seen before and I loved watching Billy presenting this its fantastic

[@nez9751]

❤

[@Bulletguy07]

This is my favourite tour of Billys. I watched when it first came on tv and cannot understand why it has (to my knowledge) never been repeated.

[@irbennett]

It's been repeated twice, just not for a while.

[@KennyClark-l2s]

Good on ye Billy!❤

[@jerichowall13]

I love Scotland and Billy Connolly!

[@gaylasmith5279]

Edinburgh is, by far, my favourite city. He's correct. Gorgeous architecture and friendly people. So much amazing history.

[@SamuelBlack84]

I'd love to visit the plague street

[@maureennewman905]

@Jambo M Not my opinion after living down in south east of England i loved to go home to Edinburgh , loved the friendly natives

[@whiteterrier1840]

Have you been there lately.? It’s a bloody tip.

[@Support-your-local-team]

@GGJ Martin Cliched, unoriginal shite.

[@NorthSon]

@@whiteterrier1840 Here now, it’s not at all a dump. Very beautiful and clean, I know around a year ago there was a bin strike but that was resolved after a few weeks. Maybe you visited then.

[@bottab7591]

Hi Billy, I loved your new book, you are so windswept and interesting my fellow Glaswegian, big love x

[@biggic2004]

My favourite series when I lived in Scotland in the mid 90s 😃👍 I really loved to learn about Scotland and the Scottish people that way and even could rehearse understanding the glaswegian accent 😊 Thanks to Billy for that opportunity! Only made it to Mary King's Close 20 years later... still a very special place. - And then there were loads of dolls... Quite creepy... 😱😁

[@mrsmchistory]

Have you got the clip when he visits Glasgow please? I'd love to see it again. Thanks.

[@grahamhill2267]

It was the first of Billy’s “World Tour of” series, to me it is the best one!

[@lesliemackay7853]

RIP Tam The Gun, a brilliant laugh and host. The only Guy in embra that knew the time. 😁👍❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿!

[@lewissmith3896]

I never knew he died.

[@markwatters6875]

Only trouble with goin down all them stairs Bill, is ya gotta come back up them. All the best from Australia mate.

[@a.j.carter8975]

♥️🇬🇧😀 stay groovy. X

[@sandywood8437]

Love this as soon as I leave Scotland I want go back spent 5 days in November at all places shown thankyou great reminder.

[@sanseijedi]

Billy is my hero. He's a lad!

[@pauldee5980]

Probably my favourite city so beautiful

[@nez9751]

This was/is a great series unfortunately you can5 get it in full anywhere other than on dvd, the best comedian ever doing a tour of one of the most amazing countries in the world. What else do you need ?

[@iamthebestnomatterhowmuchc3804]

What a wonderful country I have some Scottish friends and they are absolutely amazing people

[@annamo9354]

Oh my...now I'm really homesick for the old place...lived just around the corner from St. Stephen's church there. Did the touristy thing with a friend once, Mary King's, felt somebody brushing my neck down there, thing was I was standing right at the back leaning against a wall. Scared the bejaysus outta me. Spent many a night at the World's End, although the memories are quite fuzzy now. I wonder why...

[@voodoobushcraft6914]

the laugh he gives after "claret and oysters" i love him so much

[@introspectivedreamer3864]

thank you Billy, never seen before, really loved watching and will try to watch all the other posts that you have made similar to this, love your presenting skills and all the content its superb, funny, lively and inspiring, all these and much more

[@xtraspecialmango]

Love the old fella with his trolly 🤓👍

[@nez9751]

I agree , real

[@lunn77]

1:02 there's an old guy walkin with ' a broken arse' as Billy would say 😂😂😂

[@mikecondy6010]

FOOOOOOO! "That's the whistle for the cripples."

Fairplay Billy! Well said

[@Heavywall70]

Noon is a helluva BANG

[@billmyers991]

You couldn't walk down any of those stairways without emerging ... Windswept and Interesting

[@oscarramage95]

Here is me, learning some of the history of the city I was born & live in, from a video recorded in almost, but not quite, the year I was born, from one of my favourite comedians

[@becky2235]

Are they the steps from the film trainspotting?

[@dont_give_a_flying_f]

Wsh the streets of Edinburgh had as few cars on these days.

[@giovanni4070]

The story goes that my great gran ran a fish and chip store in the shadow of the Castle, so the story goes. Giovanni

[@daviddwyer5568]

Love Edinburgh and loved this series too. Not a mention of Greyfriars Bobby btw. Thats strange.

[@cinemainsymphony737]

Yes, you’d have thought Bobby would have made the edit. Surely they filmed something and perhaps didn’t include it? Love the statue that is also a water bowl for any passing dogs - and the pub ‘The Greyfriars Bobby’ is a lovely watering hole.

[@daviddwyer5568]

@@cinemainsymphony737 Thanks for that. I didn't visit that pub. Maybe I'll give it a try next time. I suppose Bobby's story is quite well-known too and that's another reason he wasn't mentioned.

[@rickyb5499]

Thanks for posting, I remember so clearly watching Billy’s Tour of Scotland back in the 90’s. It inspired me to visit as many places in my country as possible and did so 👍 thanks again.

[@ralpsimpson3925]

I would love to buy Billy's Trike!

[@olsmokey]

They are readily available.

[@ralpsimpson3925]

@@olsmokey I only want one. Where are they available?

[@maratonlegendelenemirei3352]

Most of the old world Edinburgh is buried under ground.

[@alegnalowe3679]

If i went to scotland i would not want to leave.

[@gaylasmith5279]

I didn't want to leave and plan to return at my earliest convenience. Would love to live in Edinburgh. Am over half Scot on my Mother's side.

[@jazzman1626]

@4:37 Where in Edinburgh are those steps?

[@grogzx]

At 4:37 Billy is going down "The News Steps". They go from the corner of St. Giles street and decend down to Market St. Very near the Royal mile.

[@jazzman1626]

@@grogzx Thanks.👍

[@iamthebestnomatterhowmuchc3804]

Whats he doing! I hear you say 😂

[@Stormy1_x_2]

but eventually you have to go back UP....

[@MrROTD]

So how is Scotland and the UK since any nationalism or respect for tradition is being destroyed? Do you have a stab proof vest? of course not this was a different time.

[@robinho1978.]

Stab proof vest 😂

[@deanie557]

He lied. Said he couldn't stand politics & politicians, but has talked loads about them over the years.

[@irbennett]

He didn't lie. He has said many times over the years how much he hates politics and politicians.
