Frankie Boyle v Katie Price: Please contact Ofcom

[donkeyderby]

Katie Price is getting her lawyers involved after Frankie Boyle made a joke about her son Harvey on his Tramadol Nights show:

'I have a theory about the reason Jordon - she needed a man strong enough to stop Harvey from fucking her'

He also said:

'Jordon and Peter Andre are still fighting each other over custody of Harvey - eventually one of them will lose and one of them will have to keep him'

Let's support Katie Price and Harvey and report this cold-hearted fucker to Ofcom. If he comes anywhere near my town, I think I might pay him a visit.

he was down our way a while back
wonder if he will return
hmmmmm maybe not as KP comes from our town

I'm not that pissed off with Frankie Boyle tbh. He's offensive for a living, that's his "thing" and when you are pointlessly vile about people day-in, day-out, you probably wouldn't notice the line if it bit you on the arse, let alone when you step over it.

The people I am pissed off with are Channel 4. They have entire departments whose job it is to make sure their output doesn't wake up the regulators. And entire departments let this one pass on the basis that no-one much cares what you say about disabled people. I hope Ofcom give them a right kicking.

sorry he made the "joke" so he is responsible
so are the broadcasters and the viewers who carried on watching.

Ofcom don't seem to be too bothered about jokes that are derogatory to disabled people either. I suppose most people don't get it

I also made a complaint, I was disgusted that this is supposed to be humour

Glad to hear KP has taken it up herself and I hope the Ofcom review forces an apology at least.

I for one will not be watching FB again

Bump

Ofcom

Channel 4

Complain if you feel strongly about this

slagging KP of is one thing, she is a grown woman, who choses to put her self out there,

slagging a 8 year old boy off who does not have any choice, is not right.

not hard.

ok

Hmm. Welcome to Mumsnet TheThirdMan. I have reported both of your horrible posts.

have reported as seems we have our own troll

Fuck off, TheThirdMan.

I thought about writing something more erudite but cannot be arsed.

Fuck wit

If TheThirdMan wrote with as much poison but with more intelligence, I would think he was FB himself gracing these boards. Maybe it's his dad?

Hope you find your way back to the online porn channel soon, love

yawn

troll alert
ignore
ignore
mn hq will hopefully deal with it

Have reported. Will now ignore all other posts by poster.

Hooray, two v influential columnists in today's Sunday papers are saying Frankie totally out of order, and should quit showbiz!!! NB - for those out and about in the shops, don't forget that his book is still visible and on show in the bestseller charts.

DH and I are fairly relaxed about things that are so-called offensive but I think this is vile. It is not a general, not funny, a bit offensive gag. It is a cheap attack on a specific child and also on his mother. Whatever you think of KP I have always thought she is great with and about Harvey and has real dignity. I have defended her on MN before some years ago. I will complain.

OK, done it. It wasn't easy to find the form to complete, maybe I am a retard or something, hardy har har (not).

Oh dear, me again! Talking about disclaimers before TV programmes, there's just been one before THUNDERBIRDS!!! "this programme contains scenes of violence" ..... against puppets ffs.

Are you sure they're not just stringing you along Davros?

Har har. It was on Syfy channel, just shows how much disclaimers mean!
