Sir Billy Connolly has been cleared by television watchdog Ofcom over a joke about a cat that some viewers deemed as cruelty towards animals.
As reported by the Daily Record, Ofcom surveyed a segment from the legendary comedian's new documentary 'Billy Connolly: An Absolute Pleasure', on ITV, after two viewers complained about a joke that involved a cat being run over by a car.
The tale discussed a man who accidentally collided with a cat while driving through the Highlands in Scotland.
