it was alistair mcgowan who was on earlier said that he would like it if eddie izzard took over from david attenborough at narrating the nature programmes, and then went on to do an impression of him talking about moths, that is why the found it all so funny :) but im sure eddie izzard is enough of a genius anyway to come on stage and say a random word and make thousands laugh!
The "moths" line was a reference to an impressionist called Alistair MacGowan who'd been on earlier in the show and done a impression of Eddie talking about moths.
I love this...obviously eddie but right now i mean the comments above by the uploader. they are kind and polite! why cant more internet people be more like that...
Hmm.. Don't know whether anyone here has seen Eddie's recent stand up show (I saw it in Nottingham a few months ago), but it just occured to me that that posh people vs chickens vs rubbish trumpet piece was the beginning of his current Jazz Chicken routine. It all seemed a bit familar ha :)
For me, his fox hunting bit was too similar to Bill Bailey's fox hunting routine, but I loved the rest of it--especially the horse-whisperer bit. He's just so unafraid to tell the audience that he has no clue what to say next. That's refreshing.
@jogaking This is aboslutely true theres a video of eddie izzard talking seriously about the hardships in burma, promoting a charity thing. His opening line? 'Don't laugh, you're in Burma' I laughed my ass off! EDDIE FUCKING IZZARD told me not to laugh. It's a paradox! I can't do it!
Moth hunting please! I don't so much as dislike them, as am more intensely terrified of them (it's a phobia and it means irrational fear so please dont mention how they can't hurt me. I'm 23 and know this lol)
this show had eddie izzard, dylan moran and bill bailey...... i wanna live in england and see these awesome comedians

Eddie Izzard, the master of total and absolute gibberish.

So what you're saying is Eddie made up all that stuff... On the fly?
no, it was on the moth mate. didn't you listen to the show?
Will Terry *hah*
I guess he winged it.
Ahhh Alistair MacGowen, thank you. I had forgotten who had done the set up
That was awesome.
The trumpet noise he made was WICKED!!!!
