[worriedmanblues]

Copy and paste the title of this video into the search bar.

Choose the version with sound that I have reposted.

[thebigtree74]

Sound doesn't work no matter how I change the ending bit :(

[annachibi2]

the &fmt=18 trick isn't working for me :(

[mythmanjay]

I don't watch enough Eddie Izzard to discern what he's saying from the echoes :-(

[GemzieR]

Type in &fmt=18 in the address bar instead of the featured bit

Gives you sound :D

[mythmanjay]

@GemzieR Thanks. Did TCP put that in the description?

[iningomontoya1]

whats the point of listening to a comedian when theres no sound : (

[BrutikusIV]

/watch?v=ajlRoyYtWBc&fmt=18

[sfincione2000]

No sound

[FilledCircle]

put this after the url &fmt=18 makes sound

[SiliconBong]

@FilledCircle :)

[Baz00kaT0ny]

@FilledCircle magic!

[animehottie281]

oh mee gee where is his make up

[Thimblefish]

For those having sound problems: Try looking at the ending and changing it to "ajlRoyYtWBc&fmt=18"

[whaddayaknow17]

@Thimblefish thanks!

[dancingninjaboy]

@Thimblefish woah that's flippin' brilliant. How does that work? And thanks! : )

[flameblade49]

@Thimblefish didn't work for me :(

[Archinator2010]

no sound here... sorry man..

[tubeshan]

Sound would help

[DeadxBlackxWinter]

am I the only one having audio problems with this video?

[tubeshan]

@DeadxBlackxWinter

Missed your post. No sound here either.

[odinncool]

To add sound add &fmt=18 to the end of the link! it worked for me

[freakystyley4000]

@odinncool - how the fuck did you figure that out?!

[hero5th]

@freakystyley4000 I agree. XD I would never know about that, but it does work

[HeidiChambers70]

no sound :(

[dancer291]

no sound

[andrewpyrah]

@dancer291

To make the sound work:

Add &fmt=18 to the end of the string of letters in the address bar.

Replacing &featured or anything else if you need to.

[tjohn1986]

telepathic comedy. NICE

[seahog32]

great but would be even better with sound

[amarilrose]

the audio is screwed up :(

[Greyhound1405]

Where is The SOUND?

[blackberry2611]

I love Eddie Izzard :) He is a constant reminder that there are good people in the world, and its not all doom and gloom. A genuinely good guy xD

[freakystyley4000]

@blackberry2611 - yeah, but according to some he's coming to hell with us. At least we'll have a few laughs there!

[vidar79]

Why do you film your TV-screen instead of streaming it directly onto your computer? You could post this in so much better quality...

[jacksawild]

@vidar79 You think that's a TV screen? Look more closely.

[freakystyley4000]

@jacksawild - It's clearly two TV's on top of the one another!~

[free2beme42891]

@freakystyley4000 theyre filming it from the audience from the balcony. that black bar is the railing.

[freakystyley4000]

@free2beme42891 - I know, I'm just taking the piss out on those who are saying it's a TV.

[AARTC94Adie]

@vidar79 hes not filming his tele he was there, you can see the bar that sits ontop of the barricade when you sit on the balconies at these types of shows

[O2BSoLucky]

Thy shalt not covert thy neighbours arse.

[jimthefin]

"Under the cover of frogs"

[caseyashly]

Omg... I was like who the f*ck is that?? But it's Eddie. I miss the heals and lipstick. He's a good looking tranny.

[jaxgal618]

He's just not the same. I love him so much better as a Tranny. It just adds something great to the performance :(

[kittygirl792]

omg no makup?

[KAlSO42]

my 1st thought

[Centuria13]

Noooo! Plague of Skittles!

[Oskar930913]

Hahahahah, fun XD

[TheDanaAlice]

does he have facial hair and no make-up?? not what im used to.  looks good though.

[AmayaYuukuno]

Meh, he can't be fabulous without fabulous clothes.

[shamandra]

he was performing in america. not gonna say anything else :P yeah, does look good though.

[countessli]

nice. make Americans sound like a bunch of judgmental assholes why don't you? rofl jk

[shamandra]

@countessli *lool* I'm sorry, I didn't mean it to sound so harsh :P

[countessli]

no shamandra its cool, i knew you weren't serious. besides i'm inclined to partially agree, we do kinda of have the stick a bit too far up the ass in this country! lolz i thought your comment was funny so sorry for the confusion!

[domofwigan]

Saw him in Manchester last night and was INCREDIBLE!!

Really amazing!!

Especially the 20 foot spear section :D xx

[iiCraZyLTD]

i mean i saw him live not just walk past ..

[iiCraZyLTD]

saw him in cardiff 2 yesturday =]

[Arcadiah]

you see steves ox? I really, really want it...its a fantastic ox, such a big face :D

[jennieblue22]

The reason for the difference in Sabbath day? Originally, those of Judeo-Christian tradition believed that the God of the Bible rested on the seventh day (Saturday) after six days of creation, and rested on that day to honor this work. However, later Christians believed that Jesus died (or was resurrected) on a Sunday and changed the date to honor this instead.

[jennieblue22]

Actually, the ORIGINAL Sabbath of Judeo-Christian tradition was celebrated on Saturday - it was changed later by various groups including the Catholic Church.  Some Christian groups (such as the Seventh Day Adventists) still celebrate the Sabbath on Saturday.

[EmpressOfFools]

they made a run for it under the cover of frogs :D

[burnhippiesforfuel]

"you just told me to come back here!"

[iamtheiceandsnow]

he is good, but i like george carlin more, joking about the 10 commandments.

[mandaloin]

ah Christ more people arguing about religion...

I used to be a Christian, and it's all this arguing shit and how judgemental most of gods people are that made me quit. I found god working in my life but no one elses. people who don't claim to be Christian are much less uptight and have clearer heads. sounds better to me

[kevinkingofevil91]

i want to figure out how to spear my buttox with crem brulee now!

[StarsDivide]

i want a plague of skittles! =O

[nashvillediva1983]

"A plague of Skittles"

[macthesack]

awesome clip thanks for posting.. ya awesome

[pacosaidso]

Work? What on earth is that?!

[bettelane]

I think the stupidest commandment is the one about not working on Sundays. Like anyone was going to, anyway.

[clottoyup]

um, there is no commandment that says that. The seventh day yes, but nothing is said about it being sunday.

[ranilinkov]

not workin on sunday is a chritian thing.

the ten commendments are a jewish thing.

[lalafunnys]

pfffffffffffffffft, you're so ignorant you make me laugh~ 8D, The commandment says 'Thou shall keep the Sabbath day holy', not 'Don't work on Sunday bitch.'.

[Nautypaw]

@lalafunnys

Sabbath (Heb. verb shabbath, meaning "to rest from labour"), the day of rest. -nothing about it being a sunday, tell me again...who is ignorant? :P *giggle*

[lalafunnys]

^_^ Nice effort, I studied religion for 8 years hon. I know my stuff. Also, in religious tradition, the last day of the week which is Sunday, or the day God rested from making the earth, is SABBATH day. I do not appreciate being called ignorant when people don't get their facts straight.

[Nautypaw]

ok ^.^

[BjornstjernM]

Hon....

What about Saturday?

[lalafunnys]

If you're trying to make a point by asking about Saturday, please, by all means continue with the "lecture". ^^

[KristianCramer]

wuhuuuu black SABBATH!!! :D

lol XD

[josephdrew87]

I like Eddie comments about coverting oxen. The only other person I've heard make the point that coverting is not wicked and is potentially the basis for trade and wealth creation. The only person I've previously heard make that point is Christopher Hitchens. WOnder if that's where Eddie got it...

[7AngryIrishmen]

Covert oxen are dangerous because they can sneak up and gore you when you aren't paying attention.

[ilikezappa]

I have two boxen of pop tarts in my Kitchen.

Not the covert kind though . Their position on the shelf is very apparent.

[zeldagoblin]

Funny that, I was just thinking that Eddie reminds me of Hitchens, in a much more playful form!

[AnalieSkywind]

look at Steves ox!

[TheSkeletonGuy]

too bad the sound quality kinda sucks.

[TacticusPrime]

Coveting is the basis of our modern economy. As is usury, the sin of charging interest for loans. Kinda makes you wonder why so many "religious fundamentalists" are also staunch laissez-faire capitalists.

[michaelNOLA2007]

Yeah those guys. Renaming the desire to increase your standard of living something bad called "coveting," and investing capital with a return is "usury," but then saying nice things about free exchange. I just don't understand them.

[miyonheart]

He is a wonderful man. Did you hear about the guy that was injuried during the Mumbai attack so he couldnt make it to an Eddie concert so Eddie went to the hospital and preformed the whole 90 min show for him.

[HUNKragor]

show me proof, it is unbelievable.

[HUNKragor]

OMG lost for words. he did it. respect for the male lesbian:D

[Whydoyoureadme]

just because you wouldn't do it doesn't mean other people can't please other people spending a little of their time and talent..

[TheFloyd047]

@miyonheart Really?!! That is incredible. If that's true, I like Eddie even more.

[miyonheart]

@miyonheart yeah, just do a search on Eddie Izzard Mumbai and you will get a few hits on the news articles about it. And to add to Eddie being so special is he isnt bragging about it or trying to get press off of it "A spokeswoman for Izzard said that the visit was a private affair and declined to comment further. "

[makeminefunky]

@miyonheart Just one more reason to like Eddie Izzard.

[rrrandommman]

@miyonheart That guy, is made of win.

[Rachiejane1]

@miyonheart AND he has recently run 43 marathons for charity!!!!! He is a LEDGE!

[MrSantaClaws1001]

@miyonheart

What about all the other ppl who did not make it? I couldn't make it.

[Shylosama]

@miyonheart no freaking way! :D

[DaJordsta]

Now i belive your an idiot! BRILLIANT! I base my own comedy on this guy.

[willbaird]

sweet!

[youcandance12345]

that's my ox! thou shalt NOT cover thy neighbor's ox! you'll go to hell for this.

lol

[AMcGrath82]

Eddy Izzard's amazing though. He's done improvised comedy lectures and seminars that I've thought were hilarious. I hope I can find a few more bootlegs of his less well known work. ;)

[AMcGrath82]

I love it when people think they know how the universe works. I'll be the first to say the more you learn the more you realize how much more there is to know.

[youcandance12345]

very true

[Subererenni]

So true...the sad thing is (in my experience anyway) that there are not too many people who even want to use brain power to deeply contemplate and discuss the mysteries of it...it seems the religious people have given up their brains and the "atheists," only believe in things that can be measured scientifically.

[willbaird]

So true... the sad ting is in my experience some peoble prefer Marshall cheesy pasta to Kraft, hah, I find any true conniseur knows Kraft are the leading brand concerning processed cheese/pasta products. anyone who disagrees is surely an Atheist or a Homicidal Nazi sympathizer... I dont know, maybe its just my opinion?!?!?!??

[Subererenni]

Have no idea what you're trying to say there wb, or if you're from that extremely popular "It's MY opinion and that's that, case closed and I don't wanna talk bout it or think no more!!!" club or what. Food for thought Mr. Processed Cheese Product; everyone is entitled to their own OPINIONS but NOT their own FACTS, Personal experience (even of the supernatural) is worth more than "FAITH," and imposed opium dogma and as Andre Gide said "Believe those seeking TRUTH; doubt those who find it."

[grnlfe01]

Glad to see Eddies still on form

[333222777888]

funny funny funny

[MabDarogan2]

One thing: talking snakes.

All people with one of those serious middle eastern book religions believe in talking snakes. Christians, Jews & Muslims. All the same. All crazy.

[AwesomaPower]

Hmm, Ink7214, but people who go on about other people burning in hell for eternity, well that's just fine. And we just can't leave it alone. As though, if we just keep it up, somebody will say, "Hello! Why this fellow on Youtube has really opened my eyes! " Reminds me of the old camp refrain, "and they'll know we are Christians by our snarky Youtube replies." Just one more angry post and they'll understand the "peace that passes understanding" too.

Please, move on, in peace.

[ink7214]

and stargsb you are an asshole who should not be making fun of other peoples religion even if you think it is stupi

any true christian knows that the fact god exists is an object of faith and not of science or knowledge if you truly do not believ then i am sorry for you

[1wingsolja]

What a disgusting mockery.

I would not like to be this man on judgement day.

But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. - The LORD Jesus Christ, Mat 12:36

Repent & believe in Jesus Christ or you too will have to give account on judgement day and no excuse will get you out of hell FOREVER.

[phillitupp]

Don't think there is a god because when the sun explodes we are all dead so join me in my religion the worship the sun and kill all muslims and don't tell there parents religion

[backuhra]

Christianity (and just about any other Religion, whose followers have FORCED their believes on others) is a disgusting mockery of Sanity. Religion was used as an excuse for slaughtering and conquering the last two milenia. And you fearful idiot are trying to infect other peoples mind with your fearful propaganda of hell and judgement day. There are ok religions but your religion sucks. (WTF. How can there be a hell, if god is truly good? Why did he create evil?)

[1wingsolja]

backuhra:

What u describe is not Christianity. If people have misused God's name for such causes they will be judged heavily.

In the meantime, DON'T make EXCUSES for your unbelief.

Turn to God while you can.

God didn't create evil - He created free will. Without free will there is no true love.

Why is there hell? God is JUST. Sin cannot dwell with God. So His Son died in ur place but u choose not to believe in Him.

YOu are WILLINGLY rejecting the free gift of eternal life.

[jmonee7]

It's for laughs. as a fellow christian, i must remind you that you cannot pull the sliver from backura's eye with out first removing the plank from your own. if we follow the bible word for word, we must "hate what is evil" but then again, Jesus reminds us only to "love one another" ....its a catch 22, therefore, we ,must not condone backhura, but we must also learn to love him/her. Oh, and laugh at the petty criticism, and trust that God has a plan for this individual too.

[deathoftheendless]

Yawn yawn

[MonkeyShoulder75]

No we wont, it's a fairytale.

[StarGSB]

do us all a favor, kill your self now to be with your "lord".

cause your going to purgatory 1st anyways so fuck it.

[1wingsolja]

StarGSB:

There is no purgatory. You go to hell forever or you go to heaven forever. If you had to pay for ONE sin you'd be in hell FOREVER.

You need to repent of your wicked ways along with all the false 'Christians' who preach to itching ears and love the world like 'jmonee7'.

'Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness..'

- Acts 17:31

'And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened...'

- Rev 20:12

[dementedc]

Why don't you shut the fuck up and stop telling other people what to believe?

[StarGSB]

gods commandments.

thou shalt not commit adultary.

(or w/e it "says")

so if your marrided, and look at another man / woman (depending on what sex you are ofc) and THINK "wow i'd fuck them" and invision it, that in your religions' "eyes" is adultary. thus all men go to hell... all women go to a factory where they make the fluffy bits for pillows....

[1wingsolja]

StarGSB

Don't assume what u dont know, and ur language is disgusting.

I DON'T go round thinking this... even one thought like you mentioned and I would be convicted so hard.

A true Christian will not go round thinking like this, DESPITE what u are led to believe by 99% of the false Christians around.

[1wingsolja]

StarGSB:

One more point about what you said. You sum up an obvious thing which is that everyone has sinned and are going to hell.

Without the blood of Jesus - to save you from sins power over you (which from ur msg it seems ur convinced its impossible to live like this which is completely untrue thru the blood of Jesus) you will go to hell for sure.

Hence: Repent and believe in Jesus Christ, or perish for eternity. Be born again and saved from sins power over you.

[StarGSB]

how long is eternity again ?

not long enough

[1wingsolja]

God is so Holy and Just that one sin cannot live in his presence. It is an impossibility. When you see God you will understand His holiness in part but it will be too late.

God knew humans would choose to sin. So He knew beforehand that His only Son would need to come and die and have the wrath of the Father poured upon him in our place for our sins.

It's a free loving gift of grace to sinful man, all we have to do is believe. Yes it will cost you your ambition & friends...

ETERNITY.

[StarGSB]

lol, you do realise eddie rips holes in your religion, and im with him on it, it is a philosophy like guidlines on how to live your life. if its not please explain what god was doing for the 1st few hundred million years b4 humans "came along". if you can explain that with out saying "scientists are wrong" or any words to a similar meaning then your argument is not 100% fiction...... but you cant prove god, soooo....

[1wingsolja]

Eddie does not rip any hole in the LORD God... he only heaps coals of fire upon his own head until the day of judgement where all men will be judged for every word and thought and deed infront of God Almighty and all other people and angels.

I do not care to 'prove' God to you... you either believe or you don't. You will pay the consequences for your actions.

[StarGSB]

your inability to back your staitments up, proves you are an idiot.

[deathoftheendless]

People like you suck. A life with out fearing "god" is fun. There is no "heaven" save your breath. I laugh at your stupidity! XD

[overratedname]

deathoftheendless:

are you atheist?

[deathoftheendless]

Um, why should I tell you?

[overratedname]

I was wondering because I'm atheist myself and was wondering if you'd like to talk about atheistic ideals and what you feel an atheist should believe (or not believe)

[deathoftheendless]

Sure why not.

[SandraBang]

Funny how the belief in god is so often strongly connected with the belief that brain is just an ornament that should never ever ever be used.

[deathoftheendless]

Your "god" is a disgusting mockery.

[kittyria7]

well technically, do onto other what u want done to yourself doesnt cover it if ur a masochist. or just want pain and suffering

[kobefan131]

i saw him here in san diego on aug 2, and i thought it was even funnier than any of the other specials, which i have seen all of.

[cilliancostigan]

is he not a transvestite anymore

what

:(

[kittyria7]

well hes going back to blokey mode for while.  its explains it in this leaflet that explains it

[JoeAbouRjeily]

get ur make up back on u were funnier

[calimaeochango]

Not half as funny as he used to be. Definite Article, Glorious and Dress To Kill are probably the funniest stand-up shows of the 90's but now he's scraping the barrell.

[padsterp]

Probably because hes matured as anyone would and what he finds funny now is a totally different kettle of fish to what he found funny then - he's been at the cutting edge for 2 decades - I'd feel somewhat jaded too. Comedians generally arnt there to make YOU laugh, just to espouse THEIR humourous opinions on matters, if you like it, and pay to listen to it....then bonus.

[cilliancostigan]

yeah i see your point but even if we watch it now from what he did at the 90's we still laugh at

[blckhrt14]

he is as he says "an off-duty transvestite"

[HKragh]

You are not right. You may be right of this particular sketch, it really isn't that funny. Have you seen his newest show? It is fucking hilarious...! You can find unfunny stuff in his old shows as well, don't ever judge a comedian by one sketch...

[DefaultPosition]

You shall not covet your neighbour's house; you shall not covet your neighbour's wife, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbour.

[XSC3]

He's referring to the "Greatest Commandment" from Jesus ("upon these hang all the law and the prophets"), and also Rabbi Hillel ("all the rest are merely commentary").

[Mosessgyrl]

Eddie's right. Moses WAS gone for a long time. More than a week and a half actually. He was gone for about a month.

[thejunesky87]

"oh I'm so annoyed!" LOL!!!! Best line!

[golyandro]

watch george carlin on ten commandments, he have a better solution :))

[HarveyBirdmanTk421]

I think he was refering how the jesus commandment kinda replaces the other commandments. Since the Jesus teachings were a lot more relaxed and groovy then the thou shalt not commandments.

[BritainVthatsme]

"Do unto others as you have them do unto you" isn't one of the ten commandments.

I love Eddie Izzard, but he needs to do more research.

"It's the whole basis of trade!"...brilliant!

[silentviolets]

Haha, to me, he seems too well-informed to not know something like that.

Maybe he just slipped up.

Aw well.

[BritainVthatsme]

We'll blame Wikipedia;)

I think his point in saying "Do unto others as you have them do unto you" was more to say they just needed that one statement as a commandment because that covered all ten, not trying to say that was one of the ten commandments.
