watching online Billy Connolly
#1
Hi
I think this is now being repeated in the UK and as I have now travelled some of the same road as Billy, I would like to watch it again now we are here in Canada without having to buy the DVD.
Does anyone know where I may be able to watch this/download without any issues, I have uk2nova but cannot see it there, and dont think the normal ITVIplayer will work unless I change proxy server etc. Also I am not very techy
I would be really grateful for any help

I wondered about that too. Maybe they don't find billy connolly funny. Actually that does make me re-think my stance in the Canadian comedy thread - I'd watch several hours of corner gas back to back before I got desperate enough to watch that unfunny scotch git. (no offence to the op)

Someone can correct me if I am wrong but as far as I know it is still not illegal to download these TV programs in Canada.
It may be illegal to upload and distribute them though.
This is one of the reasons the government is currently thinking of rewriting copyright law.

Yes - this is what I actually thought too. But saying that wasn't going to allow me to get in a dig at the bearded loser (billy conolly that is, not you Steve_P
).
Either way - why would somebody report a post for that? Doesn't make any sense unless they were trying to be funny.

eh
my question was specifically to see whether there was a way I could watch it now I am here, not illegally if this is what you are getting at
anyhow I have resolved this now, so mods you can close the thread if you wish

here too - definitely not reported.Can't see why it would be reported for any reason, what Nikki was discussing is not illegal and breaks no site rules.
We can close the thread if you want Nikki, but really no need to.

You can close as I have sorted it now anyway, thanks
