00:00The careers advisor used to come to school, and he took me aside and said, what do you
00:11want to do?
00:12What do you want to do?
00:13Tell me.
00:14Tell me your dream.
00:15I'll be a space astronaut.
00:16Get out of space.
00:17Discover things that have never been discovered.
00:18He said, look, you're British, so scale it down a bit, all right?
00:23We're with you, Eddie.
00:24We want to be part of this, Eddie.
00:25It kept me laughing.
00:26And I was really afraid.
00:27Afraid of stopping.
00:28Once I was tied up by someone really tight in my ropes and chains, and I couldn't get
00:36out.
00:37If you think you can't get out, you will not be able to get out.
00:41The producer said, look, you're not a performer.
00:42You died so regularly.
00:43I was like, who's the idiot?
00:44If you perform it, you want to play Wembley.
00:45It's the Madison Square Garden.
00:46It's the Hollywood Bowl.
00:47Goodnight, Wembley.
00:48You can say that in a very small place.
00:49You can say that when you're street performing.
00:51And it's kind of weird to get to play Wembley.
00:52Your dreams come true.
00:53So what are you doing?
00:54I'm going to play Wembley.
00:55I'm going to play Wembley.
00:56I'm going to play Wembley.
00:57I'm going to play Wembley.
00:58I'm going to play Wembley.
00:59I'm going to play Wembley.
01:00I'm going to play Wembley.
01:01I'm going to play Wembley.
01:02I'm going to play Wembley.
01:03I'm going to play Wembley.
01:04I'm going to play Wembley.
01:05I'm going to play Wembley.
01:06I'm going to play Wembley.
01:07I'm going to play Wembley.
01:08I'm going to play Wembley.
01:10Can you see me?
01:12Can you see me?
01:14Can you see me now?
01:16Whoa!
01:19So what are you doing?
01:24I'm a comedian.
01:29I'm a comedian.
01:33You've got to believe you can be a stand-up before you can be a stand-up.
01:37And you've got to believe you can act before you can act.
01:39And you've got to believe you can be an astronaut before you can be an astronaut.
01:43But you've got to believe.
02:07Can you see me?
02:09Can you see me?
02:11Can you see me?
02:13Can you see me now?
02:17You've got to believe.
