We look back at the Big Yin in tartan over the years.
Sir Billy Connolly has lent his Tartan Day kilt to the V&A Dundee as part of the People’s Tartan collection.
It was worn by Sir Billy when he led the annual Tartan Day parade through New York in 2019. The kilt is described as The Big Yin’s Grand Marshal kilt and will be displayed from Friday October 13 until January 14.
Sir Billy said, “I like to wear my mother’s tartan. It is MacLean of Duart and I love this pinky, weathered one.

“When I was a boy in Glasgow, people who wore kilts were thought of as weird.
“When we saw someone in a kilt we used to follow them, singing ‘Kilty, kilty cold bum’.
