http://www.timeslive.co.za/opinion/article293063.eceThe Big Interview: Eddie Izzard bounds into the room bristling with energy, as if he hadn't just walked up the steep, steep hill to the hotel lounge where we're meeting for a chat.
I had made the journey up in a shuttle - not the space kind, sadly, although we aspired to similar altitudes - and as we drove we'd passed a handful of over-optimistic mountaineers, sprawled out on the side of the way, gasping for breath as they tried to flag us down. Eddie is bemused when I tell him this.
"But that was nothing at all," he exclaims reprovingly.
