Comedian Peter Kay has provided a health update regarding his "hero", Billy Connolly, during his continuing health struggle. The Max and Paddy star disclosed that the Scottish comic is "not doing well" whilst speaking with Sara Cox. ‌

During BBC Radio 2's special programme, broadcast from Manchester's Lyric Theatre, the entertainer reflected on his encounters with comedy legends throughout his career. And he said one he has stayed in contact with is Billy. ‌

Kay enthused: "I met Billy Connolly. I still keep in touch with Billy Connolly now, and he's not so good now, but he would still message and that. I think a lot of comedians in this country would not be doing what they do if it weren't for him. I think so much of it is influenced by him, heavily. Amazing." ‌
