does this mean the pre-booked tickets have all gone?

28 Jan 2009 - 12:34 GMT

Fan flipping tastic

28 Jan 2009 - 13:27 GMT

Have the 50 pairs of tickets given in your online competition been allocated now? If so is there a list to check? And can we assume that if we haven't heard then we haven't won (said in very small voice with shoulders hunched as far as the sad eyes...).

28 Jan 2009 - 14:06 GMT

Got 2 tickets and cant wait for Friday! He was brilliant in both New York and the West End last year.

28 Jan 2009 - 14:22 GMT

Might be a good idea to publish the winners names and an idea of how many entries you received. In the interests of fair play we wouldn't want any/all of those fifty pairs of tickets being allocated to mates of mates of the web-site would we - rather than genuine entries from members ;-)

28 Jan 2009 - 14:23 GMT

What tme will other allocated tickets be available?

28 Jan 2009 - 14:24 GMT

I got tickets! Can't wait!!!!

28 Jan 2009 - 14:31 GMT

28 Jan 2009 - 14:35 GMT

28 Jan 2009 - 16:38 GMT

Question: will this be available on iTunes US, as well? Must know ... Thank you!

28 Jan 2009 - 17:08 GMT

"this is exactly the same time he is on jonathon ross." Jonathan Ross is pre-recorded on Thursday afternoons.

28 Jan 2009 - 18:04 GMT

29 Jan 2009 - 00:58 GMT

So far away for me....but the dogs bullocks for all you bloks!

29 Jan 2009 - 03:35 GMT

I can't wait!!!!

29 Jan 2009 - 07:29 GMT

Won 2 tickets and can't wait!!!! :o)

29 Jan 2009 - 08:35 GMT

Please can we see the interview anyway.......please. I'm a regular visitor to apple so we know they can do it. Maybe for a donation to amnesty we could use our i-tunes card???ps why is the UK determined to be laggards on the world stage and not be part of the European eco building materials / houses. In your words ' the monkey is in the tree and has no intention of joining anyone at the table'.

29 Jan 2009 - 10:34 GMT

So far I can't find a mention of it being available on anything other than British iTunes .... however, thanks to my English sister (and her techno-happy hubby!), I have access to the British iTunes!!!! Whoo hoo -- downloads, here I come (and I'm grabbing that complete Flanders & Swann while I'm in there!). I almost flew out last night to wait in line for one of those 20 tickets .... but am afraid Eddie might think I was stalking him at that point. Truly am not!!!!

29 Jan 2009 - 22:18 GMT

does anytone have this available online yet? im so upset that i missed it!!

31 Jan 2009 - 05:38 GMT

Really good fun, tho' thought Simon Amstell seemed a bit uncomfortable with the "conversation" bit, having to use pre-prepared questions, and not really able to develop things if not on list. Think he's better on "Never Mind the Buzzcocks" But hey - Eddie was great. Hi to the guys from Nottingham, I met whilst waiting in the freezing cold outside! Have got a couple of piccies - not brill (think I was laughing too much when I took them!), but they give the idea of how small it was! Any idea how to post them on this thread?

31 Jan 2009 - 10:34 GMT

I can't find the audio recording on iTunes at all - any help from anyone? I don't use iTunes (like, ever) so I'm probably doing it wrong!

31 Jan 2009 - 15:26 GMT

Arghhhhh" Doesn't seem to be up on itunes yet :-(

31 Jan 2009 - 19:57 GMT

Hi, Hope I'm not being terribly stupid - but the link for the iTunes Live podcast doesn't work. I also had a good old search on iTunes, but to no avail. Any pointers?

02 Feb 2009 - 15:07 GMT

Is it there yet? :) I can find the iTunes from London-records even though I have a German account, but Eddie's not in the list..

03 Feb 2009 - 12:15 GMT

I have been looking again today on I-tunes and still cant find it does anyone have the link...cheers

03 Feb 2009 - 14:14 GMT

i tunes is such a rip off, i mean why pay for music when you can get it for free?

03 Feb 2009 - 15:08 GMT

still can't find the i-tunes download for this... has anybody found it? A link would be awesome! please, please please! lol

03 Feb 2009 - 18:37 GMT

Seriously? Still not up? Booo iTunes.

04 Feb 2009 - 16:37 GMT

yup, can't find it either. Weird though, 'cos a colleague found it under tv programmes, but whenever I click on the link I get directed to the Sexie show download.

05 Feb 2009 - 12:32 GMT

Up there now - hopefully this link will work > http://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/browserRedirect?url=itms%253A%252F%252Fax.itunes.apple.com%252FWebObjects%252FMZStore.woa%252Fwa%252FviewAlbum%253Fid%253D304233767%2526s%253D143444 If not just search for izzard. Not sure about £7.99 for it though...was it actual stand-up material, or just a kind of interview?

05 Feb 2009 - 15:38 GMT

Oops, that link is a bit long, try this one > http://bit.ly/g71 Still £7.99 tho

05 Feb 2009 - 18:23 GMT

Interestingly it's gone from the store again (though the link takes you to the right webpage, it fails to find it when iTunes opens). Looks like its been pulled - maybe they've realised it shouldn't be a full price release.

05 Feb 2009 - 20:29 GMT

Boooo itunes is right! why did they pull it? Does anyone know if it will be back? Dying to see it

06 Feb 2009 - 01:36 GMT

Eddie's management team ought to get on to iTunes and kick some arse, it's still not up. What a bunch of clowns.

15 Feb 2009 - 18:20 GMT

Someone mentioned that they downloaded it in the brief time it was up for £8. And iTunes has since contacted them to say it was meant to be free and refunded them. But that seems to have been the only way to get it so far as it's still not back up!!!

16 Feb 2009 - 17:00 GMT

Still not on iTunes.

16 Feb 2009 - 17:52 GMT

I know :(

16 Feb 2009 - 18:20 GMT

I think all this is ridiculous and I don't get it. WHY can't we get this interview on itune??!! WHAT IS THE PROBLEM??!! And another thing, STOP limiting it only to the UK! Eddie Izzard IS known in other countries outside UK!! YES there are other countries outside UK!! Just pay the rights and make it available for everybody

18 Feb 2009 - 07:06 GMT

I'm guessing it's just not happening anymore! Which is a shame because I had agreat night and wanted a momento!

19 Feb 2009 - 09:30 GMT

retro82 -- does your friend who bought it, who was later refunded for it, still have it? Could he share it with you? I'm starting to suspect that this is never going up on iTunes.

19 Feb 2009 - 23:51 GMT

That's a good idea, if your friend could share it would be nice :)

20 Feb 2009 - 11:10 GMT

Ah, sorry it wasn't a friend. It was a post on the facebook page for the event. I could try and track them down I guess... stay tuned!

20 Feb 2009 - 16:19 GMT

http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=48241622427 Here's where I'm talking about if anything is gonna happen...

23 Feb 2009 - 08:45 GMT

Hey, excellent. Thanks for following up!

24 Feb 2009 - 23:03 GMT

Finally up on iTunes (and correctly for free - suggest anyone that bought it to get a refund) > http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=305338464
