SIR BILLY CONNOLLY has said he’s not dying, amid concerns about his health.
Fan were worried about the comedian after he said his life was “slipping away” in Billy Connolly: Made In Scotland.
In the two-part BBC documentary, Connolly reflected on his life and career and said: “My life, it’s slipping away and I can feel it and I should.
“I’m 75, I’m near the end. I’m a damn sight nearer the end than I am the beginning. But it doesn’t frighten me, it’s an adventure and it is quite interesting to see myself slipping away.”
In a video posted to Twitter by his wife Pamela Stephenson yesterday, Connolly said: ”Not dying, not dead, not slipping away. Sorry if I depressed you, maybe I should have phrased it better”, while strumming a banjo.
The comedian was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2013 and has been treated for cancer.
