Biography

In 1999 someone suggested I should impersonate BILLY CONNOLLY. I called a Lookalike agency in London and two weeks later I appeared as The BIG YIN at AOL's Annual 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!!!
I have had some of the greatest times of my life "being Billy" and have produced a full tribute show lasting an hour.
