Comedian Billy Connolly was nearly left without any trousers when tge window
of his Land Rover was smashed and his luggage stolen. He was on his way to watch
Celtic play in a Champions League Qualifier when the crime took place in
Glasgow's trendy "Merchant City" area.
It appears that Mr Connolly doesn't own anything interesting, or if he does
he doesn't take it away with him, as the luggage was recovered just a while
later having been dumped in the bushes nearby.
It is possible that the thief was also a keen fisherman and for some reason,
such as drugs, alcohol or schizophrenia cause by some insane experiment to
become superhuman, managed to get his two past-times confused.
The Big Yin still made it to the game on time and recovered his luggage, containing "clothes and
other items" (Castanets? Ping Pong balls?), from Glasgow's London Road
police station afterwards.
