Jack Seale Guardian 03/07/2019
5/5
In his documentary dotage, he's brilliant at being himself on TV and knowing how much limelight to hog. He knows he's a big deal, but he wants to share things that interest and delight him - and they are usually other people. Go to Full Review Isabel Mohan Daily Telegraph (UK) 01/07/2019
4/5
It's funny how someone who was once regarded as so progressive and outrageous is now a national treasure with a knighthood. Go to Full Review Holly Williams Independent (UK) 01/07/2019
4/5
But overall Made in Scotland is a winning hour in the company of The Big Yin - and one which might just spark valuable conversations about how to approach the end of one's life with a similar sense of adventure. Go to Full Review Malcolm Hopwood The Post NZ 08/08/2019

The best moments came when Connolly met his old mucker John Byrne for a wander round the National Portrait Gallery. Go to Full Review Jane Rackham Radio Times 03/07/2019
There's a more contemplative, poignant air to this part, which reveals Billy to be a voracious reader, a keen artist and a deep thinker with a strong political awareness. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
