Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What does Eddie Izzard reckon birds say right before they fly through a jet engine?

Answer: "Look! There's Rod Stewart in first class!"

"Because the birds aren't striking. It's an 'engine suck!' It's an engine making bird soup melange."

2. Eddie Izzard says that he believes Dick van Dyke went where to learn a Cockney accent?

Answer: Australia

"It's an Australian accent. Check it out."

3. What was the full name of Eddie's character in "Velvet Goldmine"?

Answer: Jerry Devine

This movie also starred a then up-and-coming Ewan McGregor. And to think ... Two of the very few men who look cute in eyeliner in the same movie!

4. According to Eddie Izzard, what should be done at the site where young girls play hopscotch?

Answer: an archaelogical dig

"We should do a wot?" "An archaelogical dig!" "My tongue got stuck in my back tooth... I was checking for stuff."

5. Which of Eddie's characters says the following line: "He can't kill him. I'm gonna kill him."?

Answer: Troy in "Circus"

The line was spoken during the scene in which Leo (John Hannah) is being chased by Moose. Leo runs into Troy (Eddie Izzard) and Roscoe, who threaten to kill him. Moose intervenes, and Troy becomes a bit peevish because, as he said, *he* wanted to kill Leo.

6. According to Eddie, the pair of pilot fish refused to go on Noah's ark?

Answer: False

Actually, it was the two ducks that wouldn't go on the ark. "There was a big hole in the whole flood drama, because any animals that could float or swim got away scot-free."

7. Complete this line from "Glorious": "I am an evil ________ " ?

Answer: herbivore

"I'll eat all the leaves on this tree. I'm going to eat more leaves than I should, so that other giraffes may die. Mwhahaha."

8. According to Eddie Izzard, what was the pilot hiding from him and the other passengers on the plane?

Answer: chocolate biscuits

"And in a flash, I realize that he's hidden them, because that's what I would've done!"

9. This line is from "Glorious": "And after a while, Noah realized he was actually punching a baboon." True or False?

Answer: True

"What have you got against baboons in mime?" The lines were both from the ark-building bit. Funny stuff, in my humble opinion.

10. Before the credits at the END of Glorious, a little blurb pops up and says that Eddie lives where?

Answer: a duck farm in Kent

According to the blurb, he also went to prison, but was released for good behavior. Hmph. Shows how much they know. ::wink::
