The BBC pulled some of Frankie Boyle’s material for a charity Comic Relief gig after he made some ‘offensive comments’ about the Queen, Kate Middleton and Jimmy Savile. It is Frankie Boyle after all…
‘I wish the Queen had died… because they wouldn’t have been able to tell anyone. They would have had to hollow out her body into a suit and fill it with helium.” That’s just one of a number of comments that the BBC didn’t quite agree with during Frankie Boyle’s performance for a Comic Relief gig recently.
According to reports, Boyle was booed while he was on stage after he joked about the Duchess of Cambridge (Kate Middleton to you and me) having small breasts and for her allegedly fathering Frankie’s love child.
“I don’t know what the fuss was about the pictures of Kate’s tits. Anyway, in my paper (Frankie writes for The Sun) I have to flick past pictures of good tits to read about her shit ones.”
“I was amazed to hear Kate ever got pregnant in the first place. She told me she was on the f***ing pill,” he said.
The show, which was being recorded live, was on a two and a half hour time delay, so Frankie’s lines, along with jokes about the Pope and Oscar Pistorius, didn’t make the final cut.
In fairness to Frankie, Jack Whitehall’s material didn’t make the final cut either, which is probably a good thing…
