An Audience with Billy Connolly
21.00, ITV4
This show has become probably the most-repeated bit of eighties comedy ever, which is remarkable when you think that its first screening was actually on Channel Four rather than ITV, and at eleven o’clock at night to boot. We remember ITV putting it in an alternative schedule during Euro 2000 as well, making it surely one of the oldest programmes ever shown on primetime ITV1, but these days it’s confined to its digital offshoot.
