| Billy Connolly, one of Britain's best-loved comedians, now triumphs
Down Under in a witty and perceptive view of Australia. Besides being a
self-confessed Neighbours fan, Billy is a veteran of many visits
to Oz. He loves Australia and Australians and the feeling is reciprocated
- his concert tours are sell-outs - making Billy a sensitive and experienced
guide.
Travelling on a specially made Harley Davidson trike, he roams
the length and breadth of this spectacular country, from the glistening
cities of Sydney and Perth to the blinding heat of the Outback, performing
in his celebrated shows and delivering a highly individual commentary on
all things Australian, as well as on himself.
From Melbourne to Brisbane, from Coober Pedy to Bathurst Island,
Billy sets out to find the true spirit of Australia's people. Whether swimming
with dolphins, eating Mangrove worms with the Tiwi Aborigines, feeding
crocodiles, or climbing to the top of Sydney Harbour Bridge, Billy brings
an enthusiastic view to everything he does and sees, and everyone he meets.
Complete with many fabulous photographs by Nobby Clark and sprinkled
with excerpts from his stage shows Billy Connolly's World Tour of Australia
will show you an Australia you never knew, and one you will never forget. |
