Comedian Sir Billy Connolly has revealed he's quit his stand-up career, because of his worsening Parkinson's disease.
The 77-year-old Scotsman has been battling the degenerative disorder for seven years.
He says Parkinson's has made his brain work differently, to the point where he can't continue to perform comedy.
“I'm finished with stand-up, it was lovely, it was lovely being good at it, it was the first thing I was ever good at,” he said.
The actor is now enjoying creating art with his works selling for thousands of dollars.
