He was a few days ago interviewed by The Telegraph and New York Daily News also noted a part where he talked about his friendship with Robin Williams and especially, a conversation that took place on the phone.

Really, he mentions that they talked all the time. They told each other that they loved one another and Billy Connolly is even asked in the interview if it is true that comedians are really very dark people. He says that is nonsense and then starts talking about Robin Williams by saying, "He was my pal. He was not always depressed. He was a complicated man, but a beautiful person. He was a joy."

And then, not long after that he also shares, "On the last phone call he said, 'I love you like a brother' and I said, 'I know you do' and he said, 'Are you sure you know?' and I said, 'Yes'. Robin worried about everything."
