Customer Reviews
So.. yeah... Its amazing. True Story!!!
Eddie is way ahead of others, his style is pure genius. He has a huge general knowlegde and is clever with it, thus making his sketches even better and in alot of ways informative. He does alot of thinking on his feet but still manages to link his material back to earlier parts of the show. However, the second the audience start predicting whats next he's changed the subject and left them behind, hence some of the silences in the audience. This however, is a gem to people who have the video as everytime you watch it new things will pop up that you missed first time round. First time i saw Izzard i hurt with laughter.... this is no exception!
Elephants on skis, Mr Dog and lots of jam
Without doubt the best of Izzards 4 videos, the 1st time i saw this we had to keep pausing the video to get our breath back from laughing so much, it really is THAT funny. Endlessly quoteable and the kind of routine you can watch over and over and never tire. Mixing witty observations with excellant surrealist elements, Izzards often bumbling ,sometimes improvised style makes him utterly endearing while his material is faultless and his referencing back to previous segmants of the show are inspired. So unless your a fool with jam for brains then you really should already have this video at the top of your collection. So...yeah!
Never put jam on a magnet...never put socks in a toaster....
Eddie Izzard is a total comic genius of the highest standard...this has to be the best of all his videos, although they are all pretty fantastic. Eddie Izzard's rambling style on his simple observations of everday life is what makes him one of the greats...completely original and extremely funny. Every time I watch this I find something different to laugh about, and am always in tears at at least one point...Anybody who has a decent sense of homour will LOVE this...if you don't have it...BUY IT PLEASE!
