Description

I can make your Wedding, Birthday Party, Corporate Event or whatever extra special!
I personalise my act so that "BILLY" includes some of your guests in the hilarity! For instance a favourite Uncle, Grandma or Brother who is up for a laugh. I welcome Heckling from your audience.
If you have junior members of the family at your event I can refrain from swearing.
ALSO!!!!
"LOOK WHO IT ISNAE..."
1 hour tribute to the man consistently voted No1 in standup comedy. Featuring Stories, Jokes old and new, Banjo (of course!) and Billy Connolly's hit songs:- D.I.V.O.R.C.E., IF IT WISNAE FOR YER WE ... LLIES and many more.

Biography

Back in the mists of time someone suggested I should impersonate BILLY CONNOLLY.
I called an agency in London and two weeks later I appeared as The BIG YIN at AOL's Conference at the Radisson, Heathrow.
A week later I was flown into Glasgow and played BILLY at the relaunch of Heinz Sponge Puddings In a Tin!!!
In the 25 years since I have had some of the greatest times of my life "being Billy" and now do a full tribute show lasting 1 hour.

BILLY CONNOLLY Tribute Act - Adult Stand Up Comedian - Edinburgh, Scotland Event Location: Sgt's Mess 45 Royal Marine Commando, Arbroath, Scotland Event Type: Christmas Party 11th December 2025

We thought Stewart was brave to take on 50+ Marines in the Sgt’s Mess here but he blew the guys away with his banter onstage! Some great stories about his musical past and some of the best old-skool jokes!! We will have him back here.

BILLY CONNOLLY Tribute Act - Adult Stand Up Comedian - Edinburgh, Scotland Event Location: Didim, Altinkum, Turkey Event Type: Comedy show 11th September 2025

Well .. what can we say about Stewart – aka the Billy Connolly lookalike .. Just one word: WOW! 🤩 ✨ 4 nights — Completely sold out! ✨ 4 nights of non stop laughter! ✨ 4 nights of something totally different for Altinkum! It was a risk to take to bring stand-up comedy to the area and let’s face it, it isn’t something you see every day. But here at Ozzy Bar | Chef Bulent’s Restaurant, we believed it was a risk worth taking 👍🏻 We’d like to give a massive thank you to Stewart for delivering 4 unforgettable nights of comedy. It was an absolute pleasure to host you and your lovely wife 🥰

BILLY CONNOLLY Tribute Act - Adult Stand Up Comedian - Edinburgh, Scotland Event Location: La Villette Hotel Event Type: Dinner and Comedy 14th June 2025

Stewart flew to Guernsey and his show in La Villette was absolutely special. He was on stage for over the hour just having fun talking to the audience. The party from Aberdeen, who were in Guernsey on holiday had a particularly fun evening as they were the butt of many of the stories.
