Eddie Izzard

Eddie, just saw your screening in San Francisco. Such a great heartfelt documentary! I didn't have tickets, waited in line for 2 hours and ended up with front row seats. Thanks for coming and sharing with all of us. <img src=""http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/3949/eddieo.jpg">

When is Believe going to be on DVD in the UK???

27 Mar 2010 - 10:05 GMT

Hi Eddie, please can you come and show this (or do a show) back home in UK, just so we can all stand and applaud you for your amazing Sport Relief challenge. I have been running for a while (I am doing the Great North Run with a friend for Winston's Wish a charity for bereaved children) but having seen your Marathon Man over and over again, I now have new-found love and believe! Unbelievably, you also inspired my (rather over-weight) husband to take up running, and for this I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have finally donated to your Sport Relief fund, but feel no amount of money is enough to thank you for your incredible, hard work. Thank you so much for everything you have done and I am gutted I missed your run near St Albans - I would have been proud to 'support' (read: try to keep up with) your fabulous self. Keep on running. For me, you are King of the world! Kirsten x

Hey, When can we get it in the Uk? You were fantastic in S.R. Jeez, what hard work, i really thought it was impossible. I do not know how u did it. I watched every episode, which is unusual for me, i have the concentration span of a knat. (think thats how u spell it) Little fly like thing. Anyway, cant wait to see the DVD. x

Eddie, your Sport Relief marathons were a true inspiration and I have donated. You have made me realise that anything is possible and that I can beat my anxiety depression and I'm going to start running to help with this. Thankyou :)

Eddie, you have been an inspiration to me for many many years before you became this amazing Marathon Man. But now my admiration for you knows no bounds. I sponsored you for £5 and it was the best £5 I have ever spent. Seeing you fight your way through those marathons has made me see that you can do anything as long as you believe you can. Are you aware that there is a Facebook group dedicated to getting you a Knighthood for your fantastic achievment? I have of course joined *lol* I also want to echo sas99's comment and ask when the Believe DVD will be available in the UK? I know so many people who would love to buy it! Much love to you Eddie x

My young neighbor turned me on to you and I have been enjoying it all every since. I have seen you and watched certain things but never made the connection. I first saw the Death Star Canteena??! Laughed without knowing who the hell you are but my neighbor who is 19, (live on boat) brought your name up. I think you are fantastic. P.S. I use to catch my room mate, 6'4" in my dresses. Funny! I never got bad advice!

Hi Eddie!! what an amazing achievement in completing your marathons!! I'm gutted I missed you at the Angel of the North. I was completely in awe of your determination and overwhelming mental strength. The documentaries were so inspirational and I don't think any amount of sponsorship could truly reflect your true gutsy determination to complete all the marathons and not to let others down. You have certainly made me realise that the barriers in life are often put in our way by ourselves and that you can achieve anything if you want it bady enough. Your boxset 7 is just hilarious and keeps me laughing when life gets tough. I can't wait for Believe to be released in the UK. I hope your efforts will be rewarded in the Queen's honours list. xx

I Have loved you forever. I went to see you in Manchester it was brill. Your a true inspiration. Ive got dyslexithingybonk too. and I start uni in sept, and im just a bit younger than you so its never too late. I just want to see beleive now and my life will be complete xxx

06 Apr 2010 - 22:52 BST

I have a copy of Marathon Man recorded and when I want to just sit on the sofa and eat cakes, I put it on and within 15 minutes my trainers are on and I'm off!!!!! Previously I was only running 3 miles a sesion, now I'm up to 8 miles. When I feel knackered, I think of you and I carry on. I'm upping my miles to 10 this week. Thank you, you gorgeous man Love Aly x x x x x x PS I donated to sports relief too

Hey Eddie, I am not going to do a 'fatwumanrun' but I am attempting to organise to break the world record for the most couples for a three legged race for a kid called Jordan who has inspired me, Jord had chemo for three and a half years and I watched your thing on the telly and so Jordan believes if some comedian who wears high heels can run all that way he can help break a World Record and get a Certificate (all he wants is the Certificate). We are going to also hopefully raise money for Dreamflight who sent Jordan off to the States for a holiday. Thank you Mr Izzz, you and your stiletto's inspire folk in the most unusual ways xxxxx

Mr. Izzard - I have just seen Believe. Amazing film, I loved seeing the pictures of you as a child and your family. It was a beautiful moving thing to watch. Thank you. Kudos. You are amazing.

13 Apr 2010 - 08:45 BST

Hi Eddie, Heard you were in Brighton today, with Gordon Brown, so I rushed in on the train, with my bike, to get your name on our petition to save adult education evening & Saturday classes, at Brighton University, which are self-funding. Where were you? Any chance you could still lend your signature to our campaign please? Online petition at: ttp://www.savebrightonarthouse.org/ Many many thanks, Sally Jordan ps I'd love you to do some more documentaries!

I have watched Believe tonight. I have lost my dad 7 years ago. My mother called me on the phone, saying “your dad had come home and died 20 min ago”. So I have started my 40 hours journey home through half of the world, changing 3 planes, crossing Atlantic, going on the train, going on the bus. Sweet, scary, crazy Russia. All this time I thought I would come and they will say “he is alright, he is fine”. I was running the street where I’ve grown up to my house, and then upstairs. There was a coffin in the middle of the room. I miss my dad every second of my life. My heart is ripped apart. And it is not getting any better. I’m so sorry about your loss. I wish I could pray. But I am not a believer. There is no faith in me. Not anymore.

Hope Canadian tour is going well. When will Believe DVD be available in UK?

09 May 2010 - 14:36 BST

Any news if and when Believe will be released in the UK ?

10 May 2010 - 22:14 BST

I finally made it to California last year and I stayed at the Embarcadero Center, so I finally feel like cool, I've actually been there and I know where you are talking about, it's on the top floor near a nice overpass where you can sit out at the tables and eat. Wish I could have gone!!!! ~Angela

18 May 2010 - 04:07 BST

Eddie, I KNOW (not just believe), beyond doubt, that you have a generous heart and a sincerely good soul; your love for others is always evident. I will personally and earnestly continue to keep you in my daily thoughts and prayers for you to someday become a believer and find faith, comfort, and salvation and true peace in a God that sincerely loves you. Please KNOW that you are very much loved by your many fans all across the world. Julie-USA

My favorite quote of the whole film: "The point of life is to live it." Your life so far is certainly a testament to that. What an amazing documentary of an amazing guy.

28 May 2010 - 15:49 BST

Saw you in Race on June 26th, you were terrific, as usual. Had also seen you a few years back in Joe Egg. Just love your DVD's, especially DRESS TO KILL, screamingly funny. Just love you. Paula

Dear Mr. Izzard, I just finished watching 'Believe'. Hooray for Netflix. I think it's easy to forget that some of the best comedy comes from really painful stuff. I also think it's easy to forget that comics aren't funny all of the time. The biopic was very well done, and I was with you ever step of the way. I'm sorry that you've had so much sadness in your life. Please keep doing what you do. You give young artists like myself hope.

26 Jul 2010 - 23:01 BST

Bonjour Eddie, Je vous ai decouvert il y a 6 mois a peine et je dois admettre etre tombee sous le charme de votre humour et de votre intelligence, Bravo pour le Marathon !

28 Jul 2010 - 19:25 BST

Seriously, so sorry that your Believe was not closed captioned. I cannot enjoy with my daughter... We are huge fans

08 Aug 2010 - 06:03 BST

Eddie, you've got to believe we love you, because WE DO. I don't care what you're wearing, but I do admire your great courage. Come to TEXAS! The cowboys here will absolutely "get it". And you'll see things thisaway you aint never seen before. Guarandamteeit.

10 Aug 2010 - 02:04 BST

Eddie, you are far and beyond the funniest and we love you. Do you have any plans for any appearances in SW Florida. Please let us know, so many people here are looking forward to seeing you.... Keep up the great work and say hi to my friend Craig Ferguson next time you run into him......you are both hilarious... I am a transplant from London, been in the states since 74 and you bring back so many good reminders of my youth........

14 Aug 2010 - 23:11 BST

Eddie, Just "Discovered you on NetFlix!"........OMG! "I AM SO IN LOVE!!!!" I watched "DRESS TO KILL" over & over! I couldn't wait to see what you looked like without the makeup!' I wasn't "Disappointed!"....YOU ARE Sooooo Handsome!" Any chance you can come to 'PALM SPRINGS, CA?" My "Dream" is to "meet you in person!" I "Marveled" at the way you can do all those 'Skits' You are "Unbelievable!!!" All the best, Frances Buchel, Female Jazz Singer
