Frankie Boyle

[cupid04]

It was announced at the end of 'Have I got news' last night that Frankie Boyle will be presenting next Friday's show. My OH said you needn't record that one for me. He can't stand him. He's too foul mouthed for his liking.
Who do you refuse to watch and for what reason?

Alan Carr: Not funny
Simon Cowell: Too smarmy
Paddy McGuinness: Why?

[mikey4444]

The program has some of the best political satire around today, and is nearly always enjoyable. But I share your dislike of Boyle....nasty, and foul-mouthed.

[anneasquith]

Love the programme, detest F B .

I agree to a certain extent about Frankie Boyle, but he is very perceptive and clever. He occasionally writes a column in the Guardian and obviously has to curtail the worst excesses of his opinions.
But to answer the question: David Williams - smug, spoiled no-talent hack.
Rob Bryden. Have stopped watching 'Would I lie to you?' because of him. It's all me, me, me endlessly. Look at me, me, me. A shame, as I really enjoy watching David Mitchell and Lee Mack.

Dougie...I hadn't realised that Cowell had been on the show, but why, for Gods sake ?

[THECORBYLOON]

Is it likely he would be the same as he was on Mock The Week? It's on at a different time and no doubt any humour that was too near the knuckle would be cut.

He's been on Radio Four's News Quiz a few times recently and he's been fine.

I know FB has said some dodgy things in the name of comedy, but I think he is very good.

I can't stand Paddy McGuiness, Keith Lemon or Patrick Kielty.

[Cloverjo]

Oh, and Bruce Forsythe.

Mikey: Who do you refuse to watch and for what reason?

[mikey4444]

Dougie....We may be cross-purposes here...I don't refuse to watch !

But I am not able to watch every episode, due to work commitments. I would probably not watch an episode with Boyle though.

Frankie is fab.

I don't refuse to watch any comedians although there are many that I wish I had not bothered with.

Rob Bryden. Have stopped watching 'Would I lie to you?'



Rob Brydon does an excellent job.

Hi, Cupid......won't be watching this then.....

Don't watch Billy Connolly since his get on with it crack about the beheading of Ken Bigley.

And Anthony Hopkins in anything since he ruined a performance of Antony and Cleo for me......x

They should just let Alexander Armstrong and Vicky Coren have permanent gigs as chair - they are streets ahead of anyone else.

[ actually, thinking back, I think I read that AA may have been offered the job, but wanted to carry on with Pointless? ]

[mikey4444]

Then I have made my position clear Dougie.

[sunny-dave]

Odd isn't gness - great actors having an off day (for whatever reason) can be a permanent turn-off. I won't watch Anthony Sher since a half-hearted (to be polite) performance at the RSC ruined a great production.

[baza]

Boyle, foul mouthed , not funny, Scots and a waste of space. The sooner we separate from Scotland the better, we could then deport him.

A well thought out post there from Baza

Here's something that I find funny and a tad ironic.

I think I must have offended him.
