Sexie is probably his weakest DVD, even though it does have a good shot of me and the wife sitting in the audience, although it has some good extras.

If you want a good laff, unrepeatable, definite article and dress to kill can`t be beaten

Definite Article and Glorious are the best IMO - good value from DVDSoon.

I like the one where he dresses up as a woman, and puts on makeup.

Go Eddie!

"Dress to Kill" is by far his best, in my very humble but quite forceful opinion.

But all those prior to this are excellent. Agree that `Sexie` is his weakest, although still some great lines in there.

Go that way, really fast. If something gets in your way, turn...

And those who dance will spin and turn,
And those who wait will wait no more,
And those who talk will hear the words,
And those who see will fade and die,
And those who laugh will surely fall,
And those who know will always feel their backs against the thin wall... :/ :/ :/

It`s from Glorious:Quote:
So I was in my aeroplane, in my small aeroplane, and the guy's there, and we had drinks and light refreshments, once we got above the clouds. And the coffee comes back from the thermos, "Oh, cheers! Here you go, mate…" and it goes back, and he had this wicker basket with biscuits in it- kind of digestive, not terribly interesting; so I take the best ones, and it goes back to the guy in the back, "Oh, these are crap." You know when you're not hungry, but then you get offered a biscuit, you want something better than that. "I didn't want anything, but oh… what have you got? Oh…"

So I'm nibbling my biscuits and drinking my coffee, and I notice, out of the corner of my eye, that the pilot reaches under his jacket, and pulls out chocolate biscuits! And in a flash, I realize he's hidden them there; he's taken them out of the wicker basket, and hidden them underneath! 'Cause I knew that, because that's what I would have done… you know, when you have friends around, and you go, "You want some biscuits? I'm just gonna get some biscuits." And you're off in the kitchen, and you go, "I'll just have one…" (mimes stuffing his face) Someone comes up,

"You want a hand?"

(choking) "Oh, no… I'm just letting this mouth run over my hands here…"

So the pilot's there, eating chocolate biscuits, and I'm going,



"Hey, chocolate biscuits! Hey! Digestive-crap biscuits!"

"Get off! I'm the pilot, you know… Stress… chocolate biscuits. What the hell!"

"No, customer! Customer's always right! No digestive-crap biscuits!"

"F*** off! Five years training for this, hard time! Chocolate biscuits! Perks of the trade!"

"Well, I don't agree…"

"F***ing… " (sounds of aeroplane nose-diving)

"Hold on, hold on!"

"What were you saying about chocolate biscuits?!"

"No, fine, have the chocolate biscuits! I don't care! I don't care!"

(sound of plane resuming normal position) "Chocolate biscuits…"

20 minutes later, he reaches and pulls out Jammie Dodgers! "Jammie Dodgers?" (sound of plane nose-diving and explosion) And we hit a mountain… and I died.

So that was the end of that plane flight, and that is also the end of the show. Thank you very much for being here. Good night.
:D :D :D
