Eddie Izzard - Glorious DVD

Advantages: Jam and Azerbaijan (you'll see)
Disadvantages: Evil Pilot Fish (i know your dad!)

Eddie Izzard has to be one of the best stand up comedians I have ever seen (both on TV and live on stage). His style sends me back to the days of Billy Connolys ranting and raving on stage, and going off on a new tangent every 5 minutes. However Eddie has refined this and sounds a bit more polished without losing his randomness. Glorious opens with Eddie giving his opinion on how the world was created and most of everything else in the New Testament ...
...in his own style. Yes, Eddie does look good in a dress, one of the advantages of being an Executive Transvestite! Eddies sense of humour may not suit everyone but you should try it at least once and Glorious is a good place to start. If you get the chance to see him live anywhere get yourself some tickets, if not…. Get me some! ... Read review

Advantages: Funny, just so very funny.
Disadvantages: You may laugh to hard.

...calm and collected in front of an audience its a wonder everyone doesn't love him. After all, how many people can stand up own their own infront of thousands and joke about Princess Diana, and for it to actually be funny. Wicked. The best Eddie Izzard performance by far. ... Read review

Advantages: Glorious is one big advantage!
Disadvantages: Disadvantages? What are those?

...person who does not find Eddie Izzard funny. Everyone I know absolutely adores his random and spontaneous form of stand-up comedy. I even made my skeptical boyfriend sit down and watch it and even he had to admit that he liked it. If you really need more proof than that, read on... Glorious is random. Glorious is spontaneous. Glorious is hilarious. Eddie Izzard rambles on for an hour and thirty minutes about the widest range of random things you ...
...'rambles', I mean like a good bracing walk across picturesque hill tops rather than your average walk to the shops. He talks about grand things such as religion and as mediocre things as toasters and yet his audience can relate to them all. I have seen Glorious on home video countless times and each time have come away with a new quote. These quotes can be used at every oppertunity and I can guarantee that they will always make people laugh! More ... Read review

Advantages: Very, very, funny, surreal, comedy
Disadvantages: Sometimes seems a little too over confident, not real belly laught comedy

...a perfect example of why Eddie Izzard is probably Britain’s best stand up. His irreverent humour continues to sound fresh, feel original and remains very funny. With a presentation that equals Frankie Howard’s apparent relaxed but bumbling presentation, hiding the practiced and professional familiarity with his material. Eddie is on top form in this Video, which, although stated as being made all in one recording, does seem to jump from ... Read review

Advantages: Everything, he's the funniest guy everrr
Disadvantages: He needs to do more tours in England

...meet someone who has seen Eddie Izzard and not loved it. All of his standup shows have instantly quotable jokes, 'cake or death' being an all time favourite. How many people can talk about the church of England in an almost educational way and turn it into something ridiculous yet hilarious? 'Hey you! Cake or death?' 'Errr cake please.' 'Very well, give him cake'. I know it doesn't sound too funny on paper, but when Eddie does it its the funniest ...
...bye'. I could quote Eddie all day but i've tried not to because it would ruin it when you do watch it. So if you haven't seen it yet, please do, now. It's the funniest thing ever.
