Parkinson: Masterclass

Michael Parkinson interviews Eddie Izzard. The actor, comedian and marathon runner discusses his early career spent as a street performer, the 'zigzag' path he took towards stand-up, his Hollywood movie career and the 43 marathons he ran over just 51 days in 2009.

Giving a masterclass in performance and persistence, Izzard describes how he conquers fear before going on stage and why stand-up is similar to 'street combat'.
