    Always have more respect for those who turn down honours.

    Personally I would tell them to ram it but I’ll let Billy Connolly off since he’s the funniest comedian of all time imo.

    He’ll be dead soon so it has to be now.
    If it makes him happy then good for him.
    He is a bit of a royalist deep down I think.
    He still wears his Parachute Regiment tie to official functions as well. So he wasn’t going to turn it down.

    He is friendly with leading members of the royal family, was opposed to Scottish Independence whilst saying he wasn't going to vote, prostituted himself to the highest bidder in Hollywood.

    A working class hero, he is not!

    no exceptions just because he used to be quite amusing before he got all englified and royalist. guy graduly turned into an a-hole, almost a soup taker.
