Vintage Izzard! Jesus wore flipflops because he was a fashion kinda guy! Jesus shifted down hill at high speed with the rozzers just behind! lol only one man conquered the world in flip-flops hahaha. Thanks for the upload!
British slang for police. The first ever police force were set up in Rossendale Lancashire by Sir Robert Peele, who also set up a force in London who were known as the peelers, but that fell out of common use long before rozzer did, or as Bobbies - which is still in use.
"Never to one side" Never say "god is over there" -- Shinto does say that. Sometimes one is not allowed in the building where god is kept so you can't ask questions to the duck, and at others the god is a whole mountain or bay so it is difficult to know where to ask. I like the socks to sugar. And mumbling in cold buildings.
In reference to the speed at which Jesus moves: In the original Greek of the Gospel of Mark, the word "immediately" gets used quite frequently. It's multiple times each chapter. It's so odd that many translations edit it out because it sounds weird.
A great comedic mind. OK, he was racing a bit, still funny. Jesus = stand up..(Taxes?..render unto Caesar...Stoning a woman?...let he who is without sin cast the 1st ...etc). That's material Jesus used. Christians should not be offended...Jesus faced some tough audiences (still does in some Churches). Believe or not, at least this routine makes you think. It's a personal choice, & isn't it good that we have the freedom to choose?.
Jesus spent most of his time during his three years of preaching as a homeless beggar offering blessings for food and shelter. Think about that the next time you see a homeless person offering you the same... WWJD? The same thing as a homeless person does now. Of course not all people who offer blessings for food or money are homeless. Many of them are priests.
watch what you say and do. god, the fellow who created the whole universe in all its complexity and amazing largeness, is obsessed with everything you do and say, not just you, everybody. he can do anything, omnipotent! yeah, created everything and he will get angry if you don't do as your told, and he will make you very uncomfortable, not for awhile, for eternity.. hilarious. until it happens.... well i've done my proselytizing. i'm a shoe-in for heaven.

"cover" thy neighbour's ox *facepalm* the word is "covet" [thy neighbour's ox], 'covet' being an archaic word for envy/desiring after something that already belongs to another

Slatbaadfast. You should have spent more time in school too! Why three question marks, do you need to ask three times? if you wish to make an emphatic question use ?!, or better still use an interrobang ‽ A sentence starts with a capital letter then ends with a full stop, and Mosque should be capitalised.
It was his/her mother's birthday & he/she thought this would make a nice birthday present to dear old mom :)
"Jesus he was a religious kind of guy"
he gets funnier as he gets older.
Even Jesus didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition!
No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!
If poor Jesus only knew how his religion was going to be twisted he we would roll over in his. Oh yeah!
That was funny :)
Jesus made Eddie for us to laugh 😆… the greatest stand up ever
I like how Ed resisted the strong temptation to do several Monty Python references, even though we were all thinking it
This is the first time I've seen Eddie without a dress of some kind

@@HorridDave Eddie is Genderfluid and does indeed use she/her but also doesn't mind he/him.
I prefer her with makeup and dressing fabulously.
He is still wearing knickers

"And that was why the Romans ruled the world"
it is true that an army is lost without good shoes... my father once told me: the wepon of the infanterist is the boot
Wasn't Gary Glitter an infanterist?
@Rosida Andriyana Sounds like someone who kills infants. I know it's not, but it sounds like it.
Just the one boot?
Material improves considerably after another decade of practice.
"Mumbling in cold buildings"!

I saw Eddie Izzard's stand up once it was even better than this.
The best
I wanna see him on QI!

I can definitely see where he came up with his Dressed to Kill material
"Oh shit, good point" OMG HAHAHAH
And thus from two socks Jesus made enough sugar form five thousand coffees
5:45 The current tories.
Good point ha!
Covet!!!
I came for the amusing spelling mistake and stayed for the comedy
@shadd0kitty he does have painted nails :D
Here's a duck miracle, a duck's quack will not echo.
Yes it will.
Jesus was a stoner? Christianity makes so much sense now!

ye, think this is one of his earliest taped shows as well, is this one purchasable tho? great stuff as always :)
@RomanticCrusader
yeah...the lack of glitter and shades of fuschia...just doesn't do his comedic style justice.
Ceilidh Wolfe i like both styles
Religeon?
Could someone sort out the spelling of religion...please...Eddie you were at school with my mate Keith...any chance of a drink soon :-)

Well done. You get 50 points for evangelizing.
@MissTuxedoMask hahaha gotta love this guy
@gratz11 Yeah, or the movie My Super Ex-Girlfriend.
"hey! You guys notice on page 1016 it says 'Jebus' .... That's not right?"
Tangled slinky
Jesus . . . " I'm not religious mate " take a point Eddie.
What stand up show is this?

Well Stewart is just a miserable sod.
@@Trickynico55 Stewart probably lacks the education to relate to this.
This crowd was a little unresponsive. Maybe they were distracted by the fact that he wasn't "dressed."
Lol I am not religious, but I know how to spell religion. Or at least when I voice to text, my phone does.
I thought those Earth creatures that go quack were called cats!!?

@stormcat1 You're frightening me. Christianity makes sense to you now! Yikes!
religion. isnt that the right way to spell it?
"Religion" is the proper spelling. That really bothers me.
Yes, corrrekt
The internet spells the end of proper English.
@slatibaadfast lol'd at this comment.
Sorry it's Religion
It’s ‘RELIGION’! Make an effort, please.
religeon??? me thinks thee should have spent far more time in school rather than the mosque
