Meet the Izzards
Looks interesting - a genetic version of WDYTYA. Eddie Izzard has had his maternal and paternal DNA analysed and goes on a journey to find out where his genes came from.
BBC1, 9pm, Wednesday and Thursday. |

My OH went to school with him - says he was an individual even then!

I can't stick him, personally, but wanted to watch this if only to pick holes in it, lol. Missed it!

I thought these two programs were very good. I have blue eyes my father had piercing blue eyes from the photos I've seen - my mum had hazel eyes which tended to change colour a lot i.e sometimes light brown with a green tinge sometimes darker brown and occasionally very light fawn with a very green flecks - I like the idea that blue eyes originated from the Black Sea region.
I'd like my DNA tested too I would be fascinated. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/sc...ue-776170.html I like Eddie Izzard too seen him live he's a great observationist but most stand up comedians are. |

I've seen Eddie live, too. I took the OH to see him as a birthday present last summer. It was a small venue in Soho - probabaly less than 100 people. Quite a few stand-ups use this club to try out new material before going in tour, so it's good-value. Last edited by Shona; 23-02-13 at 15:01. |

I thought this programme was a bit of a mess - partly the history of all humans, how we all came from Africa etc and partly Eddie's own DNA mix. It explained blue eyes but not hazel ones etc. I had a lot of questions that weren't addressed in this but it was enjoyable.
I especially liked Eddie painting all the ladies' nails in the first episode and how thrilled they were!
