'I beg of you please stay out!'
Eddie Izzard’s 24th consecutive marathon had a dramatic ending yesterday as gatecrashers tried to invade the studio where the comic was running.
With a mixture of panic and irritation, Izzard yelled at the interlopers to get out of the Covid-secure space.
'No, no, no you can’t come in, you can’t come in,’ the 58-year-old told them. ‘I'm so sorry! You can’t come in, you can’t come in it is Covid safe.
After being ignored, Izzard’s pleas became more intense: 'Please, please you have to go I am sorry. Do not! Do not! Do not! Stop! It is Covid safe go out, please go out, it is Covid safe, we have to be, please I beg of you, please stay out.’
