AS the daughter of one of the world's top comedians, it would be easy to follow in his footsteps and pursue a light-hearted career path.<\/p>\n

With five kids in his brood, Sir Billy Connolly must have expected one of his offspring to avoid the showbiz scene altogether.<\/p>\n

However, becoming an undertaker – like his daughter Amy – must have been way down his list of potential avenues.<\/p>\n

The 37-year-old started out in the fashion industry before choosing a deadly serious alternative.<\/p>\n

Billy, 80, previously said: "Amy is studying to be an undertaker.<\/p>\n

"She was working as a dress designer in Los Angeles and she got fed up with it.<\/p>\n

"She saw an advert for an intern in a cemetery and she loved it the second she did it. It's the truth. She loves it."<\/p>\n

Other than her father's revelation about her working life, Amy and the rest of Billy's kids usually stay out of the limelight.<\/p>\n

Last month the stand-up legend revealed he has had a \u201ccouple of serious falls\u201d after his Parkinson\u2019s disease caused a \u201cdeterioration\u201d in his balance.<\/p>\n

He told how the unevenness is a new symptom of the degenerative disorder he\u2019s been battling for a decade.<\/p>\n

Billy was diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s disease the same day he was told he had prostate cancer, which he has gone on to beat.<\/p>\n

The comedian also revealed wife Pamela Stephenson, 73, dresses him in the morning and that he has to \u201cget lifts everywhere\u201d because he can no longer drive.<\/p>\n

He says he spends his days at home and loves getting outside and fishing.<\/p>\n
