Frankie leapt onto the circuit in style when he won the Daily Telegraph's Open Mic competition in 1996, before becoming a regular and popular compere at high-profile clubs across the UK. His first performances at the Edinburgh Fringe included headlining The Comedy Zone at the Pleasance and a starring role in 2003 alongside The Reverend Obadiah Steppenwolfe III (Jim Muir) in a show that won praise from both audiences and critics alike.

While Frankie's stand-up career reached new heights, his television work took off. After regular appearances on BBC Scotland's Live Floor Show (for which Frankie was also a writer), Frankie has appeared as a guest on 8 out of 10 Cats, They Think It's All Over, FAQ U and Mock The Week, for which he is best-known. He was also a recent contributor to Channel 4's Law of the Playground in the autumn and will appearing on new panel shows Pants On Fire (BBC1) and Best of Worst (C4) shortly.

Alongside his work in front of the camera, Frankie is also a highly-regarded writer. He has written for several series including 8 out of 10 Cats, the UK version of Live Floor Show; 2DTV and 29 Minutes of Fame. He is currently writing and developing two new shows for Channel 4. All of this comes in addition to Frankie's radio work. As well as featuring in Miles Jupp's Radio 4 series, Frankie was also team captain in BBC Radio Scotland's Spin on This and Famous for 5 Minutes.

Through the facets of Frankie's career, his live performances stand strong. Last year he enjoyed a hugely successful run at the 2006 Edinburgh Fringe Festival with his solo show 'The Voice of Black America' and he returns in 2007 with an all new-show, 'Morons, I Can Heal You'.

"As a conservative, we are not well-liked, but we are competent"

I have no idea what planet she is from or that she has any comic merit except as a punching bag for Frankie

The highest inflation in 40 years.
Highest taxation in 70 years.
Biggest drop inliving standards since 1956.
Biggest fall in real wages since records began.
Uk trade performance at its worst level on record.
Inflation at 9% expected to be 11% in 2 months.
Uk business crucified with brexit red tape.

@Willy Wonka "You attack me for attacking them." No, I pointed out that you were being dumb for the repeated typos while calling someone "dmb".
Pointing out the hypocrisy, nothing more.

"So you are the same as them really."
Way to go buddy, your paranoia has gotten the better of you.

That's rather 'fashy' of you, trying to shut me up just for engaging with you in the same petty fashion you're engaging with others, don't you think?

Again with The Coup, do you think this is some sort of gotcha?
Why would you go into someones playlists trying to find something 'incriminating'? Are you attempting to engage in identity politics or something?

Whenever I hear Baroness Warsi she always comes across as articulate and thoughtful. The cognitive dissonance needed to be a Tory must be a real strain. Also, Frankie is killing it, as usual. To be fair to Warsi, she rolled with it instead of getting a nark on like most Tories would. Not that they would have the balls to show up in the first place on a show with Frankie.

dizzygunner

@Sniff Back Better Corbyn actually did, Instead of this centre ground shit we have had since Blair, but the media ran by the rich people didn't like his idea of taxing them. But you carry on voting for the people who want to fuck the poor and will laugh while doing it. Twat.

nick brooks

@Sniff Back Better Don't we have an overwhelmingly right-wing media then?

There's a fucking horrible client media sticking its godawful 'newspapers' on every newsagents shelves in the fucking country, as well as online, and every tv channel sucks the fruit of Tory arseholes on a daily basis, to boot.

Just cos the occasional comedy show puts a lefty comic on once in a while, or you've seen the odd episode of Have I Got News For You, doesn't mean there's any tangible left- wing bias at all.

Geoff Pulham

Let's be honest. She is rocking those trainers.

Rob Parkinson

shes a good sport and often goes on comedy shows where she will get ripped a bit. At least she plays along which is more than can be said about 95% of tories.

@Julie Newman I was also right-wing until about 2021, then I pivoted away. Mainly because I realised most conservative rhetoric really boils down to fear mongering and tribalism, and the economic policies NEVER benefit the working class, only the rich. The funny thing is how anti-establishment most conservatives are, yet they continue giving billionaries handjobs and free passes, it's how you get idiots that support taxing the poor and tax cuts for the rich.

Normalized Insanity

No she's not, she is a sly cow, presenting herself as human, high IQ pyschopaths like Obama can appear very human. do not be sucked in by identity politics. The title "Baroness" says it all. You have to read between the lines. How does a conservative MP basically slag off her party and get away with it? Why is she even with them? Because the Tories themselves are grooming her to fuck us over

Iskra Jackal

Human and tory is like being pregnant and not pregnant at the same time: an impossibility. Either one or the other.

@Benny Hill's Chinese Bloke Character He wants a nice, secure, well-paid career on the telly, which means sticking to culturally-approved material. i.e. He's a simp who doesn't have the talent or guts to say anything interesting, original, funny or transgressive. Fortunately, there is a substantial audience of pre-trained sheeple to lap it up (as many of the comments on this video illustrate). It just goes to show, if you feed people on a constant diet of dog shit, it's only a matter of time before they become convinced it's ambrosia because they don't know any better.

@Benny Hill's Chinese Bloke Character Certainly you are correct. You forgot to mention Brexit, hard to imagine that to be an oversight??

I think the English like to be lied to and the problem with Labour is they have principles and tell the truth. Corbyn was a problem, a real problem, but Starmer is a decent man with a good brain and a plan to make this a better country. If the voters can't see that they deserve the Tories and all the ** they bring.

@Chris Elliott 'course they've been apparently running the show for some time now , but a lot of the reasons for where we are now must be to do with two years of the old Kung-Flu , followed by what that *rse'*le Putin started.

Boyle nailed the Tory party in his opening sentence.

@Julie Newman Treading water there criticizing one of the many flaws that Labour have - some day people will wake up and see that Labour and the Tories are actually pretty similar under the hood. Starmer is just another Blair prodigy and there wasn't a bigger Tory than him - the man that started Britain on the downward spiral

Labour are no better. I mean Keir Starmer doesn't even know what a woman is.

@ket hughes Agree exactly. You should see this POS walk around the West End of Glasgow, thinking he owns the place.

As someone who used to fly, a loop the loop is nothing to boast about. You literally just pull the stick back towards you until you've made a circle. Literally nothing else to do. It's no feat. In fact I was myself surprised to learn that was it, not too dissimilar to holding the stick down on an Xbox

What sense is that DNA is who you are not what you are it's up bringing and learning makes you turn out to be what you are

Great to hear Frankie. He was spot on about LIZ. 2 months later. Maybe Frankie should be PM😜

How does Frankie boyle deal jokes sometimes below the belt and sometime funny which has probably got him into trouble at times!? Yet the Baroness knows how to deal with this sort of thing being in the conservative party,. Her warning was I think a fair point despite handling him really well considering.

I like Baroness Warsi because she appears on shows like this (and HIGNFY ) and is a good sport. Ian Hislop asked her to leave the Tory party more or less so that he could have respect for her. She is likeable and at least if you don't like her politics she at least seems like a decent person.

Baroness Warsi one of the few conservatives I have heard just say "I don't know why this has happened" or honestly say "Don't ask me as I have no clue". THat is a rare thing in this day and age.

How revealing that you incorrectly label me a Tory for simply pointing out your man backed Corybn. Is that as far as your world view stretches? either with us or against. Meanwhile in the adult world.

I guess its easier to smirk over a typo than address the point made. Failing that you could always reply with a yawn. Meanwhile the facts remain.

3:35 "...and just gets things done" - that's the dumbest thing one could ever say. What does it mean to "just get things done" ? There was a guy in Germany nearly 90 years ago, who "just got things done" and was elected for it! Asking for someone to get shit done is nothing but a statement of surrender! It means to take whatever someone put's before you, no matter what. If that's not how you meant it, then, please, explain what you want done and how you want it done. But don't come with this shite excuse for not wanting to expose your true intentions: "I just want to get shit done".

@SpinOfTheWheel one thing with comedians and elections. They spend the years between elections ripping into the Tories etc, but then it comes to an election and they almost completely focus on Labour, LibDems etc. The problem is, people pay attention to it particularly around election time.
They have a “go to” of “rip into the opposition” the moment an election is announced. It means an almost subconscious feed into the brain that, almost created a “devil you know…” in many people’s minds.
It’s a bit odd to realise, but comedy has grown so large that Stand up comics have influence over an electorate.

pretty obvious why Warsi still believes in the conservative party - it gave her a seat in the house of lords despite her never having been elected to public office, despite her numerous failed attempts; now pontificates about democracy every chance she gets

I'm waiting for Frankie's POV on the whole shitshow currently being inflicted on us by the Windsor Family, like some Toytown/Trumpton-esque omnibus edition of a soap opera, amplified to hell by a media who has no idea a large amount of the population either don't care or felt sad for an afternoon. We didn't need to be ordered to mourn a person we don't know.
I just hope Boyle has something better still than the "Haunted Pussy" line he got into hot water over.
