The thing about Frankie is that he's an extremely nice guy who outside of his comedy, is very moral. Meanwhile there are comedians whose material is much cleaner who are complete arseholes off stage.
They are two of my three favourite comedians (next to Jimmy Carr). In the introduction from Prometheus Volume 2 Frankie praises David Mitchell as well: "Marina Hyde, David Mitchell, Barrett Brown - I have read some of my favourite funny writing over the past few years."
"Hello, Mr. Frankie Boyle, and welcome to Hotel Moral. Your express elevator to both the penthouse and sub-basements is right over here. We hope you enjoy your stay."
Are they opposites? They both rely on wit and barbs, they’re both very well read and clever, and they’ve both made rather shocking comedy (David less so than Frankie, admittedly, but that doesn’t make him Frankie’s opposite necessarily).
@@JimmySteller Frankie is very controversial and uses taboo a lot more than David does. While David might not be unfamiliar with dark humor, he is definitely perceived as the more serious and nerdy comedian, which would be quite a distant from Frankie's style. Perceptions are not always accurate ya know
Russell howards has some funny moments, especially on mtw . He is a rather funny dude. I wouldn't watch a whole show of his, but i would enjoy going out for a beer with her
All the Americans have been shocked by frankie. I really want to see an Americans reaction to the "is it a bird, is it a plane, what ever it is" its heading straight to THOSE tow ers that used to exist in the US
At 2:40, did Frankie Boyle's "Can a red-hot human skull falling from space break through a farmhouse roof in Texas" refer to the Challenger disaster, or was it something else? The shuttle blew up well inside the atmosphere, so I imagine the nice people at NASA would want him to get a detail like that correct.
I'm doing a writing course at university and today someone brought up a play set in Nigeria and all I could think of was Frankie's sex tour joke. I did a little hiccup/laugh behind my hand and my friend sat next to me asked if I'd just sneezed. When I said no, I'd just thought of a Frankie Boyle joke that went along with what our teacher had written. He looked amused. Our teacher looked less than impressed 😂
@erico72 Than is a conjunction used in comparisons: Tom is smarter than Bill. Then has numerous meanings: 1. At that point in time 2. Next, afterward 3. In addition, also, on top of that 4. In that case, therefore (often with "if")
4:00 the irony of that all is....we went to spain once on a trip.....and our luggage was lost. Don't worry it wasn't only just ours. It was the entire planes luggage....and the entire luggage of ovry flight that went that day. Yeah turns out there was a system faluire in the luggage bands.

The fat jokes aren't immoral. I'm a 300-lb 5'6 man, and I gave them a fat pass a long time ago. I had to get it out first, too; I mean, I knew where it had made its way to and all, but it took me a solid 40 minutes to pull it out of the crack of my flabby ass without pulling a muscle. Christ, I'm probably a cannibal's wet dream by now, a nice marbled flank steak. I could feed a family of eight indigenous Alaskans for a solid three weeks.
"Do youmiss the moral high ground? That was a while ago, wasn't it?" *Looks around* "It's cold and dark down here." [3 minutes later] "Aren't we essentially mocking a partially disabled old lady? ... Ah, back in the fresh air!" xD xD xD By the way, next time someone makes fun of fat Americans, I'll just show them the end of this video :P . -IMP ;) :)
@Deanbass77 I work at a boat rental dock, and it's usually my job to put people into lifejackets. But we only get the weight ratings in pounds or kilos. One day I had a troop of Irish tourists who could only give their weight in stone. Man, that took us so long to figure out.
When Frankie Boyle takes the high ground, you know shit’s gone down
The thing about Frankie is that he's an extremely nice guy who outside of his comedy, is very moral. Meanwhile there are comedians whose material is much cleaner who are complete arseholes off stage.
@@donaloflynn Well said
It’s over Dara! I have the High Ground!
I mean that's one of the reasons he left
@@PureGoldNeverCorrodes you underestimate my power...
Love how Frankie Boyle seems to really like David Mitchell
Who doesn't?
They are two of my three favourite comedians (next to Jimmy Carr). In the introduction from Prometheus Volume 2 Frankie praises David Mitchell as well: "Marina Hyde, David Mitchell, Barrett Brown - I have read some of my favourite funny writing over the past few years."
Ye I noticed this,never thought they would get each other but David is the complete opposite of Frankie so it works well.
Yeah he laughed at his jokes.
Almost as if those jokes were good jokes by a comedian or something.
You might be on to something.
There is a radio pilot (can't think of the name) written by Frankie with David & Chris Ramsay on YT. Worth a listen.
"Hello, Mr. Frankie Boyle, and welcome to Hotel Moral. Your express elevator to both the penthouse and sub-basements is right over here. We hope you enjoy your stay."
How's that for being fired in a tin can!
Frankie actually taking the moral high ground for once and then falling directly back down to the cold and dark. *smiles*
that american guy's contribution to the conversation at 4:38
American guests often have trouble cuz they don't wanna just jump in and seem rude
@@CorvusCorone68 Americans polite? Lol
No, he also tries an 2:17
@@CorvusCorone68 please tell me you're joking. Maybe in some states, but as a whole? No way.
@@Bragglord Not Americans in general; Americans who have come to Britain and aren't used to how Mock the Week works.
The vibrator joke deserved a lot more applause 😂😂
Frankie's description of commercial flights....
The moral high-ground is the best part of the video.
5:49 quite literally Mock the Weak
Very well reviewed in the Spectator, is one of the best lines on mock the weeK!
"...something with rockets, I reckon." LOL
The best bit is 0:25 when david mitchell says "very well reveiwed in the spectator
'She was a danger to shipping' 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Is it, asking Pristorius if you can use his bathroom?
"Pistorius! What kind of name is that, Pistorius? It sounds like a Hogwarts spell that makes your legs fall off!"

Lamporre He blamed his arch nemesis in the trial, shitlabourius
Lamporre hahahahaha XD
I would love to see Frankie and David do something together,two opposite styles of comedy which would really work well plus they get on great.

Like how their shock Frankie took the moral highland then he said challenge accepted
Frankie Boyle - taking the moral high ground in between trips through the racist door!
Hello children, shall we open the racist door?
I've been looking for this for ages, Frankie and the moral high ground, hilarious!
"Serious Risky and Heroic". As a child --- Sneaking into Gary Glitters garden to get your ball back....
That Spectator review's been saved on my reading list for ages now.
What the Russians did with that flag underwater reminds me of Eddie Izzard's "Do you have a flag?" sketch
I love how Frankie reacts to the moral high ground.
Watching this again, I feel like Russell Howard's bit at 0:20 is rather underrated.
It was a great line. It gets overshadowed by Frankie though because well, it's Frankie and he's fucking brilliant.
HairyHariyama Don't you mean Under-stated ? LMPO !
At 3:27 did he mention toerag at Heathrow from Douglas Adams book?
Russell howards has some funny moments, especially on mtw . He is a rather funny dude. I wouldn't watch a whole show of his, but i would enjoy going out for a beer with her

It doesn't get darker than Frankie Boyle!
Is it me or is the American comedian surprised by what we can say?
Paladin Boyd
The few yanks they've had on have all been crap
Who is he?
No. Swear words & practically anything offensive are banned on US panel shows.
They get to australia and just look horrified. Lol

Frankie on the Moral bungee jump. Hello down there!!. Hello up there!! just passing......~~~~~~~~~
The vibrator joke is the best thing ever xD
snap, crackle and pop’s dj names
gets me every time 😂
Clever + humour, in a way that the US just can't do.
Some of you can
At 2:40, did Frankie Boyle's "Can a red-hot human skull falling from space break through a farmhouse roof in Texas" refer to the Challenger disaster, or was it something else?
The shuttle blew up well inside the atmosphere, so I imagine the nice people at NASA would want him to get a detail like that correct.
He was referencing the 2003 Space Shuttle Columbia disintegration over Texas.
no way that woman was 20 stone, i got up to 18 stone and I admit I'm a big guy, but she was huge
the moral high ground makes fine kindling
03:30 the only time I’ve saw Frankie laughing at one of Russell’s jokes
I've seen this a few times, I thought I should say modifying a belt sander is heroic
I'm doing a writing course at university and today someone brought up a play set in Nigeria and all I could think of was Frankie's sex tour joke.

That joke about space shuttle columbia though lol
okay, I'm sitting in Texas, and i can't stop laughing. it's offensive, because it's true.
frankie boyle, funniest man the world
*Operation Space Grave!*
I believe Frankie fell down from his high ground just after this.
Is it, what is Frankie Boyle?
I mean The Mail used to really rather love Hitler so to them everything is worse than Hitler
What's the joke about the British flag 2.5 miles under the ocean on top of Gloucester Cathedral?

I would tots but any vibrator that had those settings!
The other comedians never stood a chance, Frankie absolutely annihilated the audience.
David Mitchell is brilliant!
Is it how I'd describe flying the Gay Pride flag in Uganda?
Mitchell & Boyle has a certain ring to it 👍👍👍👍👍
4:00 the irony of that all is....we went to spain once on a trip.....and our luggage was lost.
Don't worry it wasn't only just ours. It was the entire planes luggage....and the entire luggage of ovry flight that went that day. Yeah turns out there was a system faluire in the luggage bands.
I was expecting a "Fuck, Marry, Kill" joke.
turn on the captions it's hilarious
ive noticed that knowone hardly speaks and frankie is just always telling jokes. im so pissed off hes gone he was by far the best one on this
A rarity..... Russell Howard being funny....
"Wow, it looks weird from up here."
Is it me or does David Mitchell remind anyone of a English Jon Lovitz? ^_^
I know the question! What is watching this video in class?

This isn't the extended version. It's missing Andy Parsons joke "what is sticking your knob through next doors letter box"
and Russell Howard's joke "What are the names of my cock and two balls?"
5:50 was thinking that before hugh said it.
I thought that was Greenpeace's job not the coastguards
Is it saying on an United airline flight, I'm not leaving I've paid for this seat?
and I'm going to back it with this gun lent from the national rifle association.
Do you have a flag? No flag, no country. Those are the rules, that I just made up.
@Deanbass77 the exact figure is 280lb or in metric, 127kg.

who's the third guy with Frankie and Hugh?

One day I had a troop of Irish tourists who could only give their weight in stone. Man, that took us so long to figure out.
@matrixphijr he isn't...
Hugh gets it 90% of the time
depends on the stone size.
when i saw the title i honestly thought this was a montage of Frankie Boyle...
@michaelandcallum Nonono, that's the 20-stoner from Essex :P
10 years later in 2020, you can't get a flight.
@IceMetalPunk well she is from essex if u were english you'd get what that means
It was all very funny, but who's that imposter sitting in Frankie's seat?
@TheFactoryReject Sorry, English is not my native language, I also should not have used a contraction
one min in frankie won
That's gotta be worth 5 points.
That picture of a lady is a danger to Tim Hortons
@TheFactoryReject While I admire your efforts, I am tempted to dub them "serious, risky and heroic", given your target demographic.
What does that hand sign Frankie makes at 1.24 mean?
seems like natural selection to me

How about-Three words Chelsea fans would describe Ashley Cole
Me neither.
yes, my bad. In my defense, English isn't my first language.
Im 21 stone at the moment down from 22 but im over 6ft tall and don't look what I weigh. There is no way that woman is 20 stone.
Yeah she was. Easy.
If she like five feet tall and 20 stone then yeah.
