Nah. I always liked him on 'Mock The Week' because he was slightly dangerous. Let free reign he just becomes a bit of a nob.

yep. they're all a bit 'easy' those jokes aren't they? it's almost as if he has just read the idiot's guide to stand up and thought he's give it a bash.

He is generally okay ont hings like Mock the Week. However, saw him life, and really was not impressed at all.

He's a nobend dp is laughing at him so he is also a nobend.

He just seems like a nasty bitter twisted lonely old sadsack.

He's just going for the 'I'm mad, me' thing, isn't he? The 'How offensive can I be while we all titter at my sheer naughtiness!' schtick. Very dull, and criminally not funny.

am boycotting him since his 'jokes' re people with downs syndrome
plus general level of misogyny

There was an interview with him in one of the Sundays recently. I didn't read the whole of it to be fair, but it certainly suggested he is very very shy in RL. Problematically so. Which is odd.

I still thought he was crap.

I went to a comedy gig in london last month and he was sitting next to me.He was in an old dirty tracksuit with a beard and huge belly!The comedian we were watching was shocking (Doug stanhope) and made frankie look quite tame.I agree though he is not funny in a long concert better in quiz shows

Could well be a male thing - my 3 teenage boys think he's hilarious. I've watched Mock the Week when he's on it and did think he was quick and at times extremely funny. Went onto his website to find out more (fellow Scot etc)and was not impressed at all with the porn content

Meaning that there was porn on it at all rather than it wasn't any good!!!!!!!
