Billy Connolly on his Parkinson's diagnosis: Funny doesn't go away it just changes slightly

Billy Connolly is refusing to let Parkinson's disease bring him down.

The 72-year-old comedian was diagnosed with the brain condition in 2012 - in the same week he was told he had prostate cancer and had two hearing aids fitted - and although it has prevented him from playing the banjo he doesn't dwell on the degenerative impacts.
