Billy Connolly For Star Wars Role.

It seems Billy Connolly has been offered the role of trader and Outer Rim smuggler Yon Solo - father of, yes, you guessed it, Mr Ford's character.
See fourth headline down on http://www.aintitcool.com

 

Apparently Billy Connolly has a house in Strathdon. My friend's brother laid his carpets

 

Is it just me....or can anyone else find this story?

Can you link the story, Lizard, please?


I hope this rumour isnt true.

 

I can't see this at aintitcoolnews.com.....

but I like the idea

"hullo, ah'm Yon Solo, an this is ma wee ship, the Milaynium Falcon... she's a wee beauty..."

"Pleased to meet you. My name is Obi-Wan Kenobi, and I really need a lift to Tattooine with these two babies..."

"Obi-Wan Kenobi ! That rhymes with 'jobby', doesn't it? Can ah just call you Wan-ky? Tatooine? Is that anywhere near Govan? I wiz a welder you know....."

Perhaps Billy would be better suited to a role as a wookie with partial alopecia?

 

LOL

 

if that part hadn't already been given to Mots Minx, of course....

 

I thought he got the Falcon from lando ?

 

Ock aye! But suuuureeeee!!!

 

Screw you, DD !

LOL

Yeah...he did, Pdub...

 

oh my God
Attack of the Pedantic English Bastards

Maybe Lando originally got it from Billy following an earlier, even more drunken, sabacc match......
