Eddie Izzard "Death Star Canteen" Sketch From the Circle DVD (2002)

[@claudiabTV]

This is literally my fav stand up comedy ever - EI iz da boooomb. Love him. 😅

[@paulcarson7860]

At work I asked at the canteen for the penne alla arrabiata and the chef responded straight away - ‘well you’ll need a tray...’

[@MrBlobhunter]

A man of culture

[@upsidedahead]

😂

[@annee4193]

🤣

[@darkspeed62]

The chef usually doesn't serve the food...

[@longshucksgaming]

​@darkspeed62 they do at times in catering Youre also assuming OP wasn't just loosely using the title of chef

[@somegirl558]

Haven't watch it in ages; nearly forgot how good it is. "You're Mr Stevens ?" - the most effective killer of any power show offs. Bril.liant.

[@KrillLiberator]

I like the moment when Vader is trying to work out how to explain why he can't get the autograph of his brother, Jeff Vader who runs the Death Star.

[@MothaLuva]

I find Lord Baron of Vaderham hilarious.😊

[@jumb0j0ck]

Every time we’re at lunch at work: “Did you dry these in a rainforest?”

[@GiratinaofFury]

The Saga of Mr Stevens, Head of Catering. A Star Wars Story.

[@soapachu]

Still better than Episode One

[@Nikenik2001]

Soon a original series on Disney+

[@palabrajot505]

Would mr. Stevens be considered Canon or Legend?

[@danylefebvre]

One of my favorite stand-up bit. Love the absurdity of it and how you can easily visualize it.

[@DosZebrasLisas]

I never ever stop laughing with this monologue. Thanks, it is healing.

[@AtlasBlizzard]

"I can kill you with a single thought." "Well, you'll still need a tray." Dead 😂

[@somegirl558]

xD have you dried these in a rain forrest ?!

[@GrayNeko]

Someone has got to get James Earl Jones to record this with Eddie. That would be fucking EPIC!

[@mosienko1983]

Yes Please!!!!!

[@davidreynolds4684]

Good call. Wonder if it would be funnier to have eddie play vader and earl to play the canteen worker?

[@padmelotus]

@@davidreynolds4684 lol. Genius.

[@davidreynolds4684]

How about a scene where Vader over takes yodas mind and talks like yoda but sounds like vader. Id pay to see that.

[@GoblinBricks]

Boy have I got news for you

[@potato5150]

I love that the most replayed part of the video is the very beginning. Shows how much everyone loves this bit 🤣

[@hatty369]

This one is wet, this one is wet, this one is wet, did you dry these in a rainforest?!😂😂 Absolutely love the way his brain works in some of his sketches. I love to re-watch these even though I've seen them so many times! They mean more to me now my mum has gone, we used to joke watch these over and over together and joke about them constantly and as she was disabled, bless her heart sometimes she would randomly blurt them out at silly times and we'd just laugh so much. Was diagnosed with cancer right after my 21st birthday in 2017 and the world hasn't felt right since. Eddie's old stuff is fantastic. I don't necessarily laugh out loud every time but they certainly keep me entertained and I have nothing but enjoyment!

[@BlackdamaskBLK]

The sketch that got me hooked back in middle school

[@ladymantis]

It's amazing to picture this exchange with James Earl Jones' voice

[@longshucksgaming]

Greetings from the future With ai gen voices, anything is possible

[@tatzybatzy1286]

I ‘ve watched this a million times and I’m cry laughing every time. Favourite sketch ever! 😂😂😂

[@balazsbarabas3514]

This should be included in the most cherished gems of human mankind.

[@theblackwidower]

I just saw Eddie perform this same bit last night. Fucking magic!

[@jimvo]

One of my favorite bits of comedy ever.

[@1Dreamking]

Dress to kill, Circle and Glorious (in no particular order) are three of the best stand up specials/shows ever performed.

[@GiuseppeCorona27]

I love the way he says "Penne all'arrabbiata"

[@storytellernarrations4278]

You are most definitely one of THE funniest people on the planet! Thank you for these wonderful videos.

[@jackmonaghan8477]

Shame when Lego re-released the Death Star they didn't include the canteen. It'd be good to have caterer, 'It's Jeff Vader' guy and Mr Stevens, Head of Catering minifigs.

[@SgtPeppr]

I know this a video from 7 years today but I am glad I got to see Eddie Izzard in Bangkok "Force Majeure"

[@Zorg2006]

Sir Lord Baron von Vaderham. Magnificent.

[@Daithi1973]

Lord Vader of cheam 🤣

[@schnozz87]

@@Daithi1973 Cheam is inherently hilarious

[@FrankieJoeGommon]

This is my favorite video on youtube

[@coasternut3091]

Mine is this audio over the lego people acting it out

[@francismcaleavey698]

Eddie lizard is the GOAT

[@orionsoutro1794]

DEATH BY TRAY IT SHALL BE

[@SarahJonestoo]

Just brilliant. Thank you.

[@KrillLiberator]

Not seen it in years - this is sublime.

[@williamnissen5083]

We need james earl jones to act out this sketch with eddie

[@cynful4763]

William Nissen someone make this happen

[@The360MRC]

Still makes me laugh ...outstanding bit of comedy ...and on your own doing it...very clever

[@TheJoergenDK]

Pure genious!

[@ironhead108]

One of the finest comedy bits of all time.

[@fireinacan]

Very Python-esque!

[@Ivarfromsweden]

One of the best comedians in the world!

[@morethanaveragejoe8224]

Lol...the canteen guy asking Darth Vader if he's Mr. Stevens who's head of catering was an inspired bit.

[@bumblebeebazaar4018]

I love you... You make my day! Thank you for all the blessing of joy you bring to the world... It is your stage! PS. My cat would startle Pavlov 🤣

[@craigslattery934]

This bloke is so funny one of the best stand ups ever

[@spacer357]

One of the best in the history of comedy! 😂

[@SirCraigius]

“I’m Vader! I can kill catering with a thought!” “What?” o.o;

[@mariajukejax9649]

"you're Mr. Stevens?" 😂😂😂😂😂

[@samiridgethevoice]

“A game of wtf are you.” 😂😂😂

[@CarolineRaRaRa]

'This is not a game of who the fuck are you' Perfection.

[@Rohwit]

6 years ago someone sent me here. Fuck I will get a tray - brilliant piece. Eddie we love you!

[@miga3191]

Now this idea is coming to Brisbane, Australia. Inspired by this skit.

[@jamiecameron9089]

Awesome.

[@cavecanem7075]

Thanks and Rock ON!

[@metalmadsen]

Why was he funniest when he was in drag? This is legend 😹

[@Anthony-vc2fd]

Nostalgia

[@tgwcl6194]

One of the best stand ups I know. 🤗

[@shubhoroy8438]

Just too good, comedy gold!

[@readthedwelling]

"You're Mr. Stevens?"

[@gurl6]

This is my favorite outfit on Eddie.

[@realLestarte]

I'm your boss. You're Mr. Stevens? ...love this.

[@Killer-cx6iy]

"No fuck off , I'll kill you with a tray" 😂😂

[@Citizen007-01]

I love it, so good!

[@ppheanix]

31 marathons... way to go sir !!!

[@PeteFiftyeight]

tea and cake or death on a tray!!!!!!

[@mjfan8704]

More like tea and cake or DEATH BY TRAY

[@romeo9017]

Respect - reminds me of the prima-donna's we used to have at LWT!

[@lilyteal5012]

“Oh I see The food Is Hot I did Not realise, Oh tray for the food, I thought you were challenging me to the fight to the death” “What, this is a canteen. I work here.”

[@JeffVader39]

This is my all time favourite stand up joke

[@scopex2749]

his best sketch!!

[@withalittlehelpfrom3]

And on the day Seth Green watched this routine, an idea for a motion capture special was conceived!

[@adrian_j_jones]

This is exactly how it would’ve sounded before James Earle Jones performed the voice over with David Prowse in the suit haha

[@fcalin21]

This man is a genius.

[@rachell4417]

Great stuff

[@melvynlam]

Did you dry these in a rainforest? Lol I’m dying

[@glockgeta6221]

melvynlam do you meaning “drying”

[@younglock5499]

Timeless

[@lauraneves6971]

Obrigada Paola Carosella por me trazer aqui

[@sock3200]

Little did he know, he'd be eaten alive 12 years later by the guy who designed the Death Star.

[@Nimmo1492]

I love that 20 years later, Lego Star Wars Skywalker Saga references this sketch.

[@BUSeixas11]

Now I want to know what the Emperor wants for dinner

[@joannadziokan3267]

Loooove him!

[@lisaharrod8386]

Okay...I'm Jeff Vadar!!!! Lollol😅😅😅

[@davidreynolds4684]

I have no idea how i havnt seen these skits. Does anyone know where the Circle full show can be found?

[@fred6059]

I watched a woman in a restaurant go up to the salad bar. She would pick up a plate and set it down and pick up a plate and set it down. They were wet. I had to keep myself from laughing at her.

[@parantatatam8526]

Did I get here because it was recommended by a german football-podcast in 2020? Maybe.

[@kels7978]

Your Mr Stephens?

[@RogueShadow11375]

No i’m- who is mr stevens He’s head of catering.

[@JRockySchmidt]

Dress to Kill was his best special but shit this one skit is amazing

[@Revelian1982]

I agree completely.

[@marcelo78]

More entertaining than Disney's Star Wars.

[@austinianthegrand]

Employer asks Palpatine if he would like peas Palpatine: *no no no NO NO*

[@Nearest_Neighbor]

1977 likes at this point.

[@therookpiece]

Well, we discovered that the New Order had a laundry room, didn't we.

[@Seej1982]

46 people refused to get a tray.

[@SisterCaliGal]

i'm not sure jeff vader is, but his name is familiar.

[@miketucker246]

What I want to know is just how is he gonna eat it?

[@steamie98]

0:21 anyone here from keeperofbeans ytp

[@markporter9738]

Lord Vader of Cheam is an oblique reference to Tony Hancock of Hancock's Half Hour. Hancock lived at the Railway Cutting East Cheam.

[@stevechurch4728]

on the money with that and it would fit. a scene with hancock as Darth vader and Sid james as the canteen staff member. yes that would, even in black and white tv from the sixties.

[@hexus761]

i always imagined they just had cupboards of mana and stamina potion bottles to sustain them. just rows of green and blue.

[@balazsbarabas3514]

I can't imagine anyone doing standups any more after this. It is just utterly useless, unthinkable.

[@absurdityis3925]

Jeff vader? Like the 1987 star wars comic?

[@Vikotnick]

Mr. Stevens. A Star Wars story.

[@beardedgeek973]

Still better than Episode 1.

[@hareefth]

omg im not gay yet when i was a small kid watching this

[@2degucitas]

What's a "sarney"?

[@TheSaskatoonpie]

Sandwich 🙄

[@Frysie]

That background prop constantly moving is very distracting....

[@savannahcheesebox1353]

Awkard Darth Vader for the win

[@K77VGY]

Still better than episode 8

[@jonathanmarsh8119]

Have you heard the Tragedy of Mr Stevens?
