William "Billy" Connolly, Jr. (Anderston, Glasgow, 1942ko azaroaren 24a -), ezizenez The Big Yin (eskozieraz Handia) Eskoziako umorista, abeslari, aktore eta telebista aurkezlea da. Eskozierar hizkeran moldatutako ingelesez (batez ere Glasgow hiriko ahoskeraz) burutzen dituen hitzaldi umoretsu eta bakarlaneko antzezpenengatik ospetsua da.
2000an Sharon Stonekin batera Beautiful Joe filma antzeztu zuen.
2012ko irailaren 29an Donostiako Zinemaldian Dustin Hoffman estatubatuar aktorearekin batera euren Quartet filma aurkeztu zuen.
The Big Yin ezizenaren jatorria
Connollyk The Big Yin (eskozieraz "Handia") ezizena lehenbiziko aldiz nerabetzaroan bere aitarengandik bereizteko erabili zuen: "Nire aita oso gizon indartsua zen. Zabala eta indartsua. 18 hatzeko lepondoa zuen. Sendoa, zezenaren pare. "Big Billy" ("Billy Handi") zen eta ni "Wee Billy" (eskozieraz "Billy Ttiki"). Era nik bera baina handiagoa izan nahi nuen, eta gauza guztia kontrolaz kanpo atera zen. Eta orduan Eskozian Big Yin bilakatu nintzen. Hortaz, taberna batera joan eta norbaitek honakoa badio, 'Billy Connolly hemen egon zen.' 'O? Big Billy edo Wee Billy?' 'The Big Yin.' 'Oh, Wee Billy.' Kanpotarra baldin bazara, 'Zertaz ari dituk hauek?' pentsatuko zenuke[1].
