À propos de ce contenu audio

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Made in Scotland by Billy Connolly, read by Gordon Kennedy.

All roads lead home.

‘After my knighthood was announced,
a woman from the BBC came to
Glasgow to interview me. We sat
down in a lovely hotel in a nice part
of town, and she hit me with her first
question: “This must mean a lot to
you, with you coming from nothing?”
I looked at her, and I laughed.

“I did’nae come from nothing,”
I told her. “I come from something.”

I grew up in the tenements of
post-war Glasgow. I am very proud
to be working class, and especially
a working-class Glaswegian who
has worked in the shipyards. I come
from the working class. And, most
of all, I come from Scotland.

Scotland is a unique and wonderful
place. Its national motto says
a lot about it: Nemo me impune
lacessit. A decent translation might
be: ‘By all means punch me
in the nose but prepare yourself
for a kick in the arse.’

I did’nae come from nothing:
I come from Scotland. And this
book is about why I will always be
happy and proud that I do.’

    Very interesting autobiography (although I réalise autobiography is not my favorite genre...) By the end I had got over my disappointment that it was not read by billy. A lot of what I enjoy about his humour is the way he says things - Gordon Kennedy has a nice voice but it is not Billy...
