Eddie Izzard: Stripped DVD

Jam, bees, make-up and more jam. For years Eddie Izzard's bizarre yet profound mumblings have entranced and delighted audiences the world over. But after so long out of the comedic spotlight, can Eddie's new DVD, Stripped, delight a devoted audience? Or is it fated to land jam side down on the kitchen floor of stand-up comedy? Eddie strolls onto centre stage with his usual British gentleman grace, resplendent in a flamboyantly dramatic, circus ringleader's coat and...jeans? Ok, so the costume's toned down from his usual, but the content and delivery is still as eccentric as ever. Attempting to paraphrase the history of everything, Eddie comments on the beginning of existence, the moralistic and religious views of humankind and zoom lollies, implanting his own off the cuff observations in as he goes.
