Eddie Izzard's Speed Archaeology

[@factsaregrand8363]

BRILLIANT , so CLEVER, UNIQUE and FUNNY as all get out .. Love Eddie Izzard, never fails to be Brilliant and loveable ..

[@JohnJohnson-ok4gf]

Only Eddie can make speed archeology look like a viable idea. :)

[@tombrown407]

Actually commercial archaeology is not far off the speed archaeology to be honest. We use a different type of digger and we have an archaeologist as a banksman to direct them

[@Skenderbeuismyhero]

Eddie is a bond villain in this and I love it.

[@TheIsleNarrator]

Holy shit the look on his face at 2:59 xD This is a dream come true for Eddie :P

[@peterclarke7240]

What adult didn't have such a dream as a child? 😂

[@shmookins]

OMG. I didn't know he had a show!

[@kikic4899]

I didn’t either!! God I hope I can find it on KZbin or that other one (that one that always seems to have episodes of tv shows and movies that aren’t really supposed to be there lol, I forget what it’s called but maybe it’s the best bet for episodes of this tv show neither of us ever knew that he had!!) I wish he had a tv show now *sigh* God, even if it was just 30min/week the way John Oliver does his, that would make my week immeasurably better!!

[@purehyperbole5727]

@@kikic4899 It was just one night on Channel 4, if I remember correctly.

[@rowanaboat4523]

That is actually the car park where they found Richard the third. True story

[@beththompson4371]

I just love that man!!

[@paulnevin168]

Eddie you would make the best teacher ever

[@AllysonElizabethDAngelo]

Eddie has always been the man guys!

[@skilladunge]

Eddie Is the man! x)

[@mindrolling24]

That was glorious! 😂

[@lydiadangelo4055]

LUV EDDIE !!!!

[@reenierossi3724]

wasn't there a part where any yells "Get that skull out of the way!" - and kicks it aside?

[@evelynpritchett6042]

This is my favourite thing ever

[@ballenboy]

It would have been most humorous if they actually would have discovered anything during their speed archaeology

[@bushbasher85]

ALRIGHT YOU'VE GOT 15 MINUTES TO FIND THE CITY.....LETS GO!!!!! BOM BA BOM BA BOM BA BOM BA BOM!

[@kidmohair8151]

Eddie is one of my favourite wackos...but.... if you look closely at the expression on the real archeologist's face when the explosion goes off, you just know she was biting her tongue, a microsecond away from calling Eddie a f8=khead.... here's hoping that no real archeology was destroyed in that bit of humour

[@yvonnethompson844]

Eddie Izard never watch time team? Perhaps this predates?

[@HeatherSpoonheim]

You know Eddie wrote this bit just because he always wanted to operate one of those big diggers.

[@kidmohair8151]

or be on Time Team

[@rachelring2542]

I thought dynamite? My kind if humor, taking the piss!!

[@Iucy]

LOL ''a great big long thing''

[@VoiceofCthulhu]

I wish I knew what that hole actually led to.

[@ebbhead20]

That being said, i would have loved for him to find a roman treasure just by mucking about for tv. A kick in the balls for all archaeologists everywhere. 😅

[@WickerwomanBrickparachute]

Bruce Dickinson double. Love Eddie...

[@sjoormen1]

somehow this reminds me of Clarkson and his genius...

[@purehyperbole5727]

Top Gear before Top Gear.

[@MissKilman]

I think something similar happened when he was on Russell Brand's show. :)

[@torsteinbakketunkyte7419]

The cave. Hahaha

[@sebastienh1100]

Extremely silly ;)

Action transvestite

[@mattasticmattattack8546]

Bahahaha

[@patriciahoward369]

Shame it wasn't a sword 😂

[@u3o813]

Jesus Christ what did I just waste my time watching. It's funny though.
