Only recently, Billy hit back at Sir Michael Parkinson after the veteran presenter claimed the comedian's brain had 'dulled' due to his battle with Parkinson's.
The broadcaster, 83, said there was a 'sad and awkward' moment during an awards dinner where Sir Billy 'didn't recognise him' and put the encounter down to the disease's effects.
But the comedian said he had no idea what Sir Michael was talking about and aimed a swipe at the broadcaster over his adverts for 'over-50s insurance' for Sun Life.

Speaking to the Times, Sir Billy said: 'It was two years since I'd seen him and that occasion was the GQ dinner and I did really well, so what he was talking about I'll never know. He's been selling funerals too long.'
He continued: 'The thing that got me about it was what if it was true? It's still a shitty thing to do. What do you think of Billy Connolly? "Oh, he's f****d."'
While he told Radio Times: 'I wasn’t disappointed, it just made my life a bit difficult. People feeling sorry for me, I don’t like that.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
