Eddie Izzard on The Hour With George Stroumboulopoulos (4.13.2010) (Part 1/2)
Aired 4.13.2010
Eddie Izzard interviewed on The Hour With George Stroumboulopoulos.
Episode Info
"Eddie Izzard has been called 'the funniest man in Britain.' And for pretty good reason. Stand-up is where he made his name - and he's won two Emmys - for his show 'Dress to Kill.'
But stand-up isn't Eddie's only forte. You may have noticed he likes to sport women's clothes. In his own words, he's 'a card-carrying transvestite.'
And he's become a bit of an actor, too. In 'Ocean's 12' and '13' Eddie was the gang's resident techie. He also has a TV series called 'The Riches,' where he plays a con-artist. And he's tried his hand at drama - with Tom Cruise in 'Valkyrie'
But wait, there's more. Last year, for charity, Eddie ran forty-three marathons in fifty-one days - with practically no training! His life story is now the subject of a documentary, called 'Believe.' And he's back on tour, with his show 'Stripped.' "

Eddie Izzard is an impressive man in so many ways
George Stroumboulopoulos must be the best interviewer ever.
Hey, cool, I saw this guy in canada. Too bad the US doesn't have the balls to have this interview on our air.
One woman from the movie Venus Boys looks just like Eddie Izzard.

Eddie was in the bible belt and I missed it? T-T
@fr3d420 it's a greek thing
From the Lady: "Eddie Izzard comes out as an atheist? That's like Clay Aiken coming out as gay. All the signs were there; it's just no one was admitting anything."
I can't help but think hes a lot like me or rather I'm a lot like him
jesus, how can the host mispronounce Eddie's name...
@nonnyapple If you have a DVD drive in your computer it will [mostlikely] read it. I don't know for sure having never tryed it but that is what i have been told before
