  • "Frankie Boyle on Television" could really describe any Mock The Week episode.

  • Awww I wish on teh 'your reactions' thing there was an option for "f*cking HILARIOUS!!!!"

    XD xXx

  • I love Frankie Boyle but I wouldn't want to sit in the front row at one of his stand up shows.

  • Remember when everyone used to love Frankie Boyle?

  • @Szaam Used to love Frankie Boyle? sorry, what?

  • @JantisFTW Tramadol Nights was basically Frankie being given enough rope to hang himself.

  • @Szaam No way Frankie Boyle will still be around for years to come, he's loved for his extremely dark humour and that's exactly what he did in Tramadol Nights.

  • @SOPARA862k He was loved for being a bit risque on MTW, but with Tramadol Nights he ditched being funny for just being offensive and shocking. He made it clear that there's a difference between dark humour and shocking for the sake of it.

  • we don#t know if it was terrorists or just richard hammond turning up late for check in.

  • i need to buy some new puff lanterns for my christmas tree any1 know a good shop? =P

  • Shame the BBC got rid of him, he is fantastic =D

  • @mynameisjamesj they didnt get rid of him, he left, because he didnt like being too occociated with mock the week, well thats what i heard either way he is a god haha

  • @CKNDFressay

    Aye, he left of his own accord eventually, but it wasn't because he didn't want to be too associated with MTW, he enjoyed his run there, it was that he was getting more & more frustrated at the BBC for scolding him on some of his offensive jokes, then completely cutting even more offensive jokes out of the show. He eventually called the BBC's rules "a joke" and left, but he didn't get to do his last episode of MTW that evening because he injured himself backstage. Lege though :-)

  • So, whose idea was it for Frankie to go on morning TV?

  • :L look at the difference between the two top rated comments (frankie owns)

  • Why does he hog the mic sometimes?

  • @TheSunzuki1983 cause he's got more material than everyone else xD

  • @TheSunzuki1983 because hes the funniest and most entertaining to watch out of the lot of them

  • @TheSunzuki1983 hes the best comedian there, why wouldnt you want him hogging the mic

  • best comedian ever

  • We Don't Know if that was terrorists or just Richard Hammond turning up late for Check in XD

  • especialy* ... excuse the bad spelling, I was writteing this while I was tired lol

  • especially

    writing

    lol

  • I doubt Political Corectness dares to rear its headin this show.. Escpecially when Frankie pretty much round house kicks it up the arse and tells it to f*ck off at every oppertunity!

    I love this show, i have everyone recorded so far lol

  • i dont mind fairy lights[i am gay] tbqh its all bollocks being pc if u are offended be offended and get over it

  • Political correctness definately hasn't reached this program, probably because Frankie's round house kicked it or something.

  • @Daichiaz Frankie is the scottish Chuck Norris. or, the equivalent.

  • I seen that terrorist joke on TV live. I just about pissed myself laughing while the presenters just looked shocked. Classic Frankie.

  • Yeah it is funny, I laughed at least anyway. If he had died, he wouldn't have made the joke, don't you see the point? The only reason he said it is because he is alright

  • @MMJFilms If you don't mind, what program was it?

  • @otherFlawliet it wasnt actualy live on the day of the attack, it was the next day. If memory serves the programme's called Something For The Weekend. He also cracked a joke about homosexual teachers to deathly silence as well!

  • @TheLexyboy Haha, thats sounds hilarious! Thanks for the info ;)

  • russell is sexily adorable 0:45

  • u gay?

  • mmhm

  • poof lanterns....i shall take it fourth frankie and make it a common term.

  • Poof lanterns..ahaha

  • Comment removed

  • ahahahaha omg, this is hilarious

  • Hugh Dennis is kinda funny, but they are silly, cheesy jokes. I prefer the truly offensive jokes from Frankie Boyle.

  • "You don't want to whisk eggs for an hour while a studio of people hate you"

    Looolz!

    I love the expression 1:11!!

    I LOVE Frankie he just takes it further than anyone else will go! =)

    xD

  • lol i read the arguements from these comments a while back and there's morons having a go at entertainment. if you don't like it, DON'T WATCH IT!! some people are thick these days. please don't waste your life watching things you don't like...

  • lmao i saw that cookery show he had me in stiches for like 10 minutes!! The poor presenter was like obviously trying not not laugh lmao

  • 1:14 *clear throat* *hickup*

  • pissed mчself laughing at this XD 'shave the word welcome into mч dogs back' rofl

  • haha 'poof lanterns'

  • its poof not puff

    puff is brummie slang isnt it? poof refers to gays

  • lol

    calm down dear, both are applicable.

    as is poofter, fag, arse bandit, vaginaphobe, gayboy, queerhawk, harry hoofter, homo, bumboy and sausage muncher.

    any more?

    haha

  • tbh ive only heard poofter, fag, gayboy and homo more commonly. The rest isnt so common here.

    i just find it so funny when my brummie cousin says "puff" and im tryin to convince him he's saying it all wrong lol

  • he's a brummy, mate

    we're having a complex conversation and using words longer thn 5 letters.

    anyway, ive known brummy's, theyr all thicker thn pete burns' lips

    haha

  • lol is every1 from the youtube generation absolutely retarded its homophobic u mongs

    theyve been called fairylights since their invention, wake up people, political correctness is GOING TOO FAR!!

    at my old work we werent allowed to call cigarettes 'fags'

    carrying on at this rate we wont be allowed to say anything without being apprehended by the fuckin thought police.

  • Comment removed

  • luv frankie boyle.comedy genius!

  • I watched that! It was either Saturday Cooks or Something for the Weekend!

  • i think it was something for the weekend, i was watching it with my dad. it made us laugh lol

  • Will Self said that the duty of satire is to afflict the comfortable.If Mock The week makes anyone uncomfortable,JOB DONE! Look to your own attitudes first.More power to MTW!

  • Thats The Joke!

  • omg you really are stupid aren't you

  • The name Poof-Lanterns is now stuck in my head! I called a guy a poof-lantern the other day, and he hugged me!

  • Oh dear god you met a GAY lol.

    I think Im gonna call this annoying retard at school it... He always calls me a name that REALLY annoys me and about a week back people were saying he was gay so its REALLY gonna annoy him now lol. Go up to him PUFF-LANTERN DOUSE YER LIGHT YEAR LETTING OFF MORE LIGHT THAN THE SUN FOR GODS SAKE!

  • Make sure he doesn't try and hug you!

  • Yeah... Aww come here Michael... SHIT SHIT SHIT GET AWAY *Crunch*

  • Not a nice feeling is it?

  • Why are people arguing over this. This is Mock The Week, the people on here say whatever they want really and make us laugh over it. These are jokes, the show would be crap if it didn't offend a certain amount of people, because what the hell would they talk about. People who are complaining need to get a sense of humour.

  • @Merkagee i was thinking for them to shut the fuck up and grow a pair

  • To be honest, I don't find anything offensive when it's part of a joke. When it's aggressive or serious, sure you've got a right to moan. But when it's generalisations that don't hurt anyone, I pray that political correctness will cease to exist.

  • All the ones that I know, he known or know of do not.

    OED?

    I do, mentioned it earlier

    Neither do you

  • I wouldn't see myself as dehumanizing

    And also I said 'gay' and I don't take poof as as an insult, if anyone were to take that as offensive they wouldn't be gay because I see it as a compliment ;)

  • The problem is that 'political correctness' has got so out of hand we've even forgotton what is used to be called: 'spastic gay-talk.'

  • MONKEYS

  • Excuse me but me, one of the gays, was not AT ALL insulted by that, I could barely stop laughing at it, I have never taken the word 'poof' as an insult and I have good reason, IT'S NOT!!! You really should stop it, this is just a joke, I'm actually a stand up comedian and I have a lot of 'poof jokes' in there and neither have I 1) Ever been offended by anything like that and 2) Never received a complaint. It's stupid that you would do that. It's like saying 'gay' is offensive because it isn't!!!

  • poof lanterns, lmao

  • ffs, get a sense of humour! It's people like you who are causing this country to become a joke, thanks to pointless and stupid PC becoming so rampant. It's just got to the point now where you're not allowed to say anything that might be slightly offensive towards any minority group. Not only does it anger people (even those who actually belong to that minority) but it actually perpetuates homophobia, racism etc by giving the people for it an argument for their cause that people might agree with.

  • some gays like gay jokes. they have a sense of humour,

  • hahaha poof laturns

  • love what uve said there BTW but if he jumps of a cliffe he cant get a life can he, hes just ended it. lol

  • im sure his name is frankie doyle

  • boyle m8 boyle

  • Frankie's jokes are harsh, but so, so funny

  • ...and similarly you'd have to be an idiot not to see the mechanism that those jokes share.

    It's the sanctimonious turds like you that kill off real debate about discrimination and begin to build antipathy to terms like PC, that actually have a valid purpose.

    You stand there, holier than thou, as if your lone voice is right even though other gay people think you're a moron. Peter Tatchell would barely register scraping you off of his shoe.

  • he makes jokes about why god would make gays (positive ones - to get the party started etc), he makes jokes about people who say homophobic things, such as the flooding up north being attributed to gay people.

    Of course you'd know this if you had any idea what you were talking about.

    And if your mind harboured a spark of rationality, you'd have worked out that the man says things for shock value. You'd have to be an idiot to think that his jokes about paedophilia mean that he endorses it...

  • lol, i love Frankie boyle! I'm seeing him in october, he's such a pessimistic cynic it's hilarious

  • It's not about homophobia, it's about the way political correctness really has gone mad. A lot of his stuff is satirical, just darker. Frankie's sense of humour is almost meant to be offensive, he's meant to push the envelope a bit further than it's meant to be pushed, but it doesn't mean he really believes in those points of view.

    I think you were just unfortunate enough to run into fans of his that are those kinds of people. When you say you don't like someone, people who do like them usually

  • get defensive, as if you've said you don't like them for whatever reason.

    And I am actually a fan of Frankie's, and I can tell you, we're not all homophobic, racist, angry bastards, so it doesn't really show the mood of his fans.

  • i suppose well this has been a very....interesting conversation if a bit ...angry anyway i really dont have much more to say except goodbye

  • well u are generalizing we dont all feel like that im not attempting to rip you to shreds with the foul language some other ppl hav shown.and im no homophobe either

    i dont see it as hatred i see it as only humor .ignorant, probably but im a kid i really dont look deeper into the jokes nor do i particularly want to

    i agree but i dont see this as discrimination

  • yea but im pretty sure you wont change ppls views its futile and sometimes annoying but whatev

  • thats not true abuse can be found in the smallest of things abusive language yea i suppose it could but so could a number of other things

    but like i said this is really pointless we clearly dont see eye to eye so im wiling to let this go, and u can go about spreading comments all you want

    but y'know your gettin more grief and abuse off the ppl who respond than frankie

  • how nice -__-

    ok i admit it you got me on that one

    but im pretty sure u knew that comment would get on some ppls tits . isnt that doing the thing you hate frankie for doing ?

  • IMO he is not trying to get ppl to hate just to laugh

    and im fairly sure u have a remote and more than 1 channel

    it doesnt make sum 1 an idiot cuz they like certain jokes also im not watchin him to question his character im simply here for the jokes

    i dont kno him on a personal level so his views are not my concern

  • well your opinion is clearly set in stone , as is mine .this conversation is pointless

    all i am asking is please dont post comments deliberately trying o anger ppl

  • maybe so but y'know no1 asked u to like it ..hell no 1 even asked you to watch it morally wrong or not lots o ppl like his jokes

    well i guess thats yours and there problem cuz i happen to like disgusting jokes but hey thats just me

  • yea but we all know theres a difference between em theres no denying it

    and PLEASE tell me u didnt take that seriosly

    yes im a kid 14 tho XD

  • but this isn't tv its youtube you aint payin no1 and also is it really that hard to change channels i mean c'mon dude 1 button think about it

    im a kid credibility means nuthin to me XD

  • denying you the right? by all means be offended but how about you complain about it to ppl who wanna hear it OR better yet tell someone who could do something about it cuz we sure as hell can't

  • also if your gay and know what frankie boyle is like why watch? and if u think its discrimination write to the BBC don't come preaching to people who actually like frankie

  • ok now your just bullshitting 'essence of homophobia' its not a fuckin perfume .if it were homophobia im sure he'd be more obvious about it.

    your clearly taking it out of context .hav some common sense people can tell what a joke is.

  • ferocious anti gay hatred XD are u watchin the same thing i am? blatant homophobia would be -"your gay i hate you" with a few more words added.you must live a very sheltered life

    ignorance is bliss. id rather be blissful than bitter

    what exactly were u offended by?"puff lanterns"? oh thats terrible u should go and have a cry now -_-

    and last time i looked u were the one name callin

    lighten up and learn to take a joke.

  • bigotry, its comedy, its not like he's put on an anti gay parade is it.and out of any gay people to watch ,why is it that only you find a problem with it.ah when all else fails compare us to nazis .and you think I'M shallow..pfft

    you are the one who needs to wise up. its just a JOKE.discrimination is completely different u paranoid moron

  • i never said that but frankie is definitely a top class comedian. i think its hard to find him not funny. a few gay jokes wont make the world expload so deal with it

    and foul language will get you no where

  • yea sure, like someone who dislikes frankie boyle would anything about humor

    and i believe its you(R) not you

  • thank you

    and he may suck but you swallow

  • wow what a whiner

    FRANKIE ROCKS

  • Frankie Boyle is soo funny!He can always find something to joke about

  • frankie boyle should be knighted

  • Frankie is just awesome!

    Makes me proud to be Scottish

  • Why would I want to defend bigotry. it's ridiculously sensitive fucking whiney neurotic stereotypes like what you typify that make it so difficult for society to exist peacefully. You ask me to grow up, yet display the same king of ignorance and nonacceptance you accredit so much to Frankie. Look in the fucking mirror, people have ideals, opinions and values, you're not always right. What you're saying isn't fact. Think before you speak you goddamn self-perpetually victimised attention seeker.

  • You're an idiot. The purport of a joke is for humour whereas a bigots or one discriminate of gays would be wholly to insult or belittle.

    Frankie is just using classic ambiguity for jokes, it's the mechanics of the joke, not who it is aimed at. Though a lot of his jokes push the conformed boundries, it's neurotic people like you, your pedanticisms and victim-esque attitudes that gets you such animosity. Grow up, stop being a victim, stop flailing infront of the keyboard producing random bullshit.

  • Couldn't agree more.

    As a gay person it's bloody awful reading these comments, as I don't know who to cringe at more, the bigots or the victim, both sharing the trait that neither understands when something is said merely to be humorous.

    Frankie gives pro-gay opinions all of the time - he makes 'pro-gay' jokes, he makes 'anti-gay' jokes ... he also makes what could be called 'pro-paedophile' jokes if you were stupid enough to take his humour as being the same as moral positioning.

  • well said

  • I feel sorry for you

  • so how is dreamland then? clearly this video has 5 stars, meaning people liked the jokes. yet you think the whole world is full of bigots, and how many times have you called me a bigot? not sure now, im entitled to my opinion, you are yours, now please fuck off.

  • i have no idea about reality? you are the one who thinks the whole world is gay my friend. you will clearly come across someone with a different opinion than you, it makes them no better, or worser, stop replying to me now you are very annoying.

  • you are one very stubborn and messed up "Human" it was a joke on a tv programe, yet you seem to take some fit because he joked about gays, like many others have said, Get a grip ;)

  • wow, who died and made you king of gays, you really do need to get a grip.

  • comedy is comedy, if you dont like it, dont watch it.

  • whatever, get a sense of humour.

  • why dont you! i only answered to someone overeacting to the word poof

  • i don't think i am :) many others would agree with me. if you dont like it shutup and stop giving the clip views, everytime you reply, it gets a view you know! you are promoting homophobia! OMG!!!!!!!!!

  • nope, "Paki" is racial slang.

    "Poof" could be used in many situations, you are confusing sexuality with a race.

  • the thing i love about frankie is you never know where he's gong to go, but it's frequently offensive and invariably hilarious. there's nothing he's afraid to make fun of, and directly as well, he pulls no punches.

    one of the funniest men on television, if you ask me.

    hmm... seems no one did...

  • frankies a legend! all the haters need to remember that 99% of straight people rip the piss out of gay lords, FACT! deal with it

  • that's pretty pathetic. Frankie's a comedian, a great one, and his audience knows he's saying stuff to make us laugh, he's being outrageous on purpose, he doesn't mean anything.

    People like you on the other hand are bigoted pieces of shit that Frankie would have a great time really ripping it out of.

  • Some of these comments are ridiculous.

    If you're offended by the poof-lantern joke, then you're the exact kind of person the Frankie is making fun of. PC fascists. Not gays, PC fascists.

    Morons.

    And I hope you don't get offended by my use of "gay" either. Because that would be extremely ignorant.

  • I can't believe some people don't get that joke.

    He was making fun of political correctness, not ridiculing homosexuals. It wasn't a homophobic joke.

    I guess it's expected that some self-righteous people are enevitably going to get offended by random words, such as 'poof', regardless of context. Ah well.

  • He wasn't making fun of political correctness, there is no meta-meaning there, he's just purposefully going against it for laughs, he knows it's shocking and we're meant to know he's saying it because it's shocking.

    Thinking that he's saying it as a comment against what is nothing to do with PC but would be outright bigotry, is retarded. Of course he's not endorsing it, it's a joke - it's rather worrying that you see it in the light you have.

  • calm the fuck down, its just a joke.

  • Here's a simple solution - Watch a different programme.

  • Shut the hell up fag

    I was talking to you num nuts

  • Why is everyone hating on Frankie, he's a legend

  • You're getting your arse kicked online LOL

    Try saying that to people in public moron

  • Dont you have something better to do than construct a random argument at a comedian on Youtube?

  • I hate Political correctness.

  • And yet you don't seem to know what it means. Political Correctness is not the same as just being generally offensive.

    /shakes head.

  • Frankie Boyle is a legend. END OF.

  • I am going to see him at aberisworth

  • Aberystwyth

  • Going to see him on 20th November. Can't wait! Hilarious guy!

  • im goin to see him on the 3rd

  • calm the fuck down its a joke

  • i want a dream buffet =[, POOFLANTERNS. lol they all hate Richard Hammond

  • Moron might be the right phrase for someone here...

  • So so funny :P

  • lighten the fuck up

  • Poof lanterns.. Frankies fucking hilarious

  • Frankie is a legend!!

    Also this was originally recorded last thursday I think.

  • AWesome.

  • This came out last night.

  • Love this show!!!!

  • He certainly didn't take his pills that night...

  • added 5th September 2008 wtf!
