Caroline was so humble and unknowingly funny. No ego or self entitlement bless her, she just went with the flow and just oozed comedy. She didn't overtalk or want the spotlight, which is so rare, she was a very present comedian who just made people laugh even when she wasn't trying to. God I wish we had her here today, all the greats seemed to have left us!!!

[@baconneggs1234]

I think she knew how funny she was ... otherwise why bother

She was a family friend and so was her brother, sadly both not here anymore. She was a beautiful woman and very talented. Bless you Caroline x

A great humble woman who was very very funny ... Never forgotten

Such a beautiful lady. RIP Caroline.

Been binge rewatching The Royle Family on Netflix and ended up here. R.I.P. Caroline, one of our comedy legends. I’d also totally forgotten about “fun time Frankie” - I used to love watching this.

[@ciaranwalsh96]

Interesting story about the bit in the interview where Frank says to Caroline he's thinking of starting drinking again - Eric Clapton was watching the show and was very concerned about Frank saying that. He called Frank and gave him support and advice about dealing with addiction, and later invited him to his Millenium Eve party.

[@NoName-eo2mv]

Clapton was on the show the same year so maybe he came on for that reason, they both say they quit in 88 and talk about Eric’s new year party’s

[@-Pol-]

Frank does a great poetry podcast these days - I was never much into poetry or a huge fan of Frank but his reflections and analyses of various poetic works are really insightful - I wouldn't have thought I'd become so inspired to think about poetry. There was a hint of Frank's interest in word-smithing when he quotes Kenny Rogers' The Gambler there.

[@lowkeyelena221]

RIP Caroline and Kenny, both beautiful souls.

So sad that Caroline has passed ,such a lovely natural comedian,great actress and Mrs Merton was another version of Frank Skinner show ,both fantastic

Thanks for putting this up - Caroline Aherne - brilliant. I think her musical act was Mitzy Goldberg (& Dwayne) Country music stars singing slightly rude versions of well known songs.

[@foreveraj2770]

Ian Bond Was it ever televised? Would love to see that, sounds hilarious!

[@magzsara9892]

Eric Clapton warned Frank that people were worried about him drinking again.. I think it made him realise it was a bad idea..Poor Caroline needed the same advice..

Been watching Mrs Merton and Malcolm in January 2024 from 1999. Never saw it, brilliant.

[@hemedia7082]

Haven't laughed so much in a long time. Caroline has always been a love of mine and always missed. Kenny was pitch perfect.

[@markstewart1807]

Why don’t you get TV and interviews like this anymore.

[@stephenvincent4989]

Frank Skinner a very great talent to amuse combined with the sublime and poignant Caroline Aherne and the legend Kenny Rogers was a must tv watch then and forever special.

[@paulnash7630]

I absolutely loved Caroline Aherne to bits, she just needed someone normal to love and take care of her, I'd love to have been that person but sadly she's no longer with us RIP Caroline you were so talented ❤❤😢😢

[@rdw1970]

I was a fan of Skinner in his early stand up days and thought Fantasy Football was brilliant too but tuned out when he did unplanned with Baddiel and this show. Anyway, I was here to see the lovely Caroline but what a dreadful interview by Skinner. Barely asked her anything other than when they met and her drinking. He must have known she attempted suicide the year before this was broadcast and didn’t ask her anything about her masterpiece, the Royle Family. RIP Caroline, you beautiful, funny, talented lady.

[@chrispaw1]

I 100% agree, its not a good interview at all. Its a little creepy too actually.

but ton luckily nobody is forcing you to go tbf

but ton - I agree. He is about as funny as getting kicked full on in the bollocks then poked in the eye. Also I am sick off hearing him go on about being an alcoholic. He just liked a drink once like most people and now he doesn't. That's it.
