1:41- Yay! Eddie for referencing a classic sketch... If you don't know it, the "Four Yorkshiremen" sketch is a classic one that, I believe first aired on "At Last The 1948 Show" At this point it's a bit like the "Aristocrat" joke is described as. I'ts point isn't to be inappropriate, but to be fun for the performers to just bs about how hard life used to be. Eddie does it with a few others at a charity gig on dvd and it's brilliant as always. I love the joke as a form and I love Eddie Izzard.
Eddie is the funniest person in the world, and this proves it...he comes up with all this genius stuff that leaves you almost peeing your pants at the drop of the hat :) love eddie
i love when he has another person with an accent similar to his, because they get REALLY into it together and it gets hard to understand them. Funny stuff.
is it just me or is some woman in the audience putting on a terribly annoying laugh all through this interview??

@dehro She sounds like the woman in the front row who laughed hysterically when Robin Williams was on Inside the Actors Studio. Maybe they hired her.

@dehro oh wow. reeally annoying. Makes me think she doesn't get any of the jokes, so she feels the needto laugh the loudest at f. everything.

Is it weird that I could totally see him playing Great Uncle Matthew in the recent film Ballet Shoes? He seems so perfect for it...

Wonderful beautiful country, where the nuts come from! A 'Charlie's Aunt' reference from Eddie Izzard. Friggin' brilliant.

There was a similar thing about chair height and who can get taller one of the times that Hugh Laurie was on the show. Eddie did it first, though.
