Watched it. It was very good but he needs some more material Frankie Boyle, as I was watching it and thinking "I've heard that one on Mock The Week". But watching it with my Mum, who wasn't in the slightest bit impressed, she said he was rather cold and went to bed.
Boyle was crap. He's good on MTW, but as a stand up . . . stringing all those bits together into a 'routine' . . . sheesh . . .

It wasn't crap!
Don't be meean.
I was mainly distracted by the beard though.
Boyle really needs new jokes. You could tell even the audience knew it was both recycled and loosely chained togethor. I know this show was put togethor at short notice, but the obvious recycling has long been his style. He even used the same Macy Gray joke they cut last time (I was there and he made a joke about how he knew they'd cut it back then).
What was the joke? I barely even remember it.

The joke was about Macy Gray being a groupie for two different guys and Boyle offending her by saying 'Well, I hope they at least each took a different end of you'.

Ah yes, that's the one.

Crap is being harsh actually, I agree, it wasn't crap; but it was something worse than that-it was boring.
