Frankie Boyle's Best Jokes on Never Mind The Buzzcocks S24E12

[@N.I.R.A.T.I.A.S.]

"I think you are a nice man. " "Well, watch this." Classic Frankie.

[@GeneralPrincessDaisy]

To be fair, he actually IS a nice man but his thing is to come across as not being such. He’s like a reversal of JK Rowling until she stopped caring about her image.

[@ryanr1712]

It has the same energy as the Mock the Week joke "You thought Tony Blair was a ****, watch this!"

[@finnstewart1805]

“I’m sorry Mrs Corden we can’t do a termination... he’s 31” i’m dead😂💀

[@SANDSCORCHER]

Truly superb 👍🏻 The only way he could possibly have bettered it, is by adding a pregnant pause after 31, followed by “stone”.

[@BoroDanny90]

I actually think Frankie would have been a brilliant full time host of this show, he shares a lot in common with Mark Lamarr in many ways, has the same razor sharp tongue, quick wit and cynicism, yet doesn't take himself too seriously.

[@spartacist101]

Agreed though the BBC wouldn't have allowed it because back then he was seen as a social pariah. He was has great chemistry with the captains, PhilL Jupitus and Noel Fielding

[@TERMINATIONBLISS08]

The same BBC whose incumbent director general Tim Davie stood as a councillor for the Tories and is introducing measures so that right wing comedians (Jim Davidson) are given more airtime. The same BBC whose political broadcasters are all avowed Tories (Laura Kuensberg, Andrew Neil, Nick Robinson). I doubt Frankie shares any of their politics.

It went, "What did I use as Soviet troops in my reenactment of the Battle of Stalingrad, the German forces being played by a lawnmower?".

[@M1st3rB3nn]

It's a shame Frankie's relationship with the BBC was getting bad at that time. The recipe of Simon Amstell humiliating people to his face had pretty much run its course, but Frankie's style could have worked for a regular slot. Even though his jokes were brutal he was actually quite warm with the guests and got them enjoying it

[@DokkaChapman]

@@M1st3rB3nn To be fair he has managed to get a regular gig on BBC2 doing his own show about certain topics, and they are always killer episodes. I think what's changed is that he doesn't punch down as much, instead putting his comedy squarely at a more apocalyptic turn.
