Who would have guests that nearly 10 minutes of reenacting a nature documentary about lions stalking wildebeest would be so funny?
During his Route 66 series, Billy bemoaned how Trump tore down a rather beautiful building in the States, before pondering what the world be like if he became President. Whoops...
Billy was one of the mainstays of the fundraiser, and filmed some hard-hitting short films from Africa, including a classic family reunion of a father and his two children after a decade apart. Oh, and he also streaked around Piccadilly Circus.
