Next DVD = "Dress to Kill" Glorious is the title of British comedian Eddie Izzard's 1997 performance at the Hammersmith Apollo in London. The performance was released on video/DVD and on CD. The CD version is a recording of a different night. Both performances cover topics such as the siege of Troy, Noah's Ark, the Royal Family to the birth of baby Jesus. In many ways, the flow of topics follow from the Bible, starting with the beginning of time according to the Old Testament and ending with Armageddon according to the Book of Revelation, though they are covered in Izzard's usual non-serious style.

Izzard followed "Glorious" with "Dress to Kill" in 1999.
