How long is it before this disgusting man is silenced and loses his career.... soon I hope! Anyone who laughs at his vile jokes must be as sick as he is. Judging by my local paper, most people here in Leicestershire, where Madeline lived, are outraged!

And yet FB can sell out a thousand seater venue in a matter of hours

I too would need to have a look at myself if I thought he was funny

[andy-hughes]

Ric.ror - no-one ever got rich by overstimating the public!

Yes - let's cancel pistols at dawn :-)

Well at £25 a ticket in 1,000+ seater venues on a 30+ day tour - well you do the maths

> i don;t think Ann86 is looking to get FRankie Boyle silenced

"How long is it before this disgusting man is silenced"

I think his "humour" was first noticed by me when he made those crass comments about Katie Price's son- he's certainly not improved over time has he?

[anneasquith]

i he no intention of opening any links to f. boyle, but he has had a fair bit of publicity from this thread. no offence ann86.

[sir.prize]

The cretin has done it all - drugs, alcohol, tax avoidance, offensive comments re: HM The Queen, Rebecca Adlington, Down Syndrome, Palestine and Israel, Harvey Price, Jimmy Savile, Madeleine McCann - I bet even the people of Glasgow shudder when they hear his name.

Wonder why his employers, The Sun, haven't reported his latest 'classic comedy'.

[ummmm]

I find him hilarious. He makes a few jokes that are not funny...the rest is.

[sir.prize]

Oh dear ummmm - you had a humour by-pass operation?

[B00]

Did you not find that his none funny jokes put you off the rest of his funnies though ummmm?

I did with Ricky Gervais, as soon as I saw his stand up DVD, it put me right off, can't even watch the previously well loved The Office without being irritated by him now.

[China Doll]

I'm like Ummmm, I find him funny in the main. Sometimes he goes to far. I feel the same about Bill Hicks although I don't think Frankie is anywhere near Hick's genius personally. And no, his unfunny stuff doesn't put me off.

I've not seen what he said so am not in a position to comment on it. I doubt it'll stop me laughing at the stuff that is funny.

[joko]

well all that happened was everyone went on his twitter page to see what it said, so what difference doe sit make that it was posted here? - you cant expect people to join in in outrage if they have no idea what was said!

Ann did the right thing letting us see what her post is about.
its hardly a secret so i dont see what difference it makes to repost on here.

[joko]

i agree with ummm... in general he is funny - he just goes to far sometimes

his vileness makes me dislike him as a person, but jokes are jokes if theyre funny theyre funny

[squarebear]

I agree with joko. How can we discuss the remark if we don't know what it is?

I am like some of the others and find most of his stuff very funny. However, I do cringe at some of what he says.

[ummmm]

No...

If we all got put off by a few things we found offensive we'd all be sitting in a corner rocking with rage.

Wouldn't we, Sir.P???

[MarkRae]

I still rate The Office as one of the greatest pieces of British TV comedy ever, but that has little if anything to do with Ricky Gervais' acting or the David Brent character. Although he was the head of the office, I felt he was very much a peripheral character whose main purpose was to act as a foil for the rest of the cast.

[youngmafbog]

Free speach.

Unfortunately this is the down side of it but start regulating then where do you stop?

The public should vote with their feet. Dont buy any magazine or paper with him in, turn over the telly etc etc. Once he has no backers he will soon disappear to the gutter where he belongs.

[ummmm]

Mark- He made me cringe = Brilliant.
