The Frank Skinner Show

Rb

Anyone else a fan of it?
I think it's/he's hilarious, IMO it's probably the best chat show on atm.

Dublin's Finest

Is it back?

I'm away at the minute so I;ve no clue what's happening at home telly-wise.

He's a funny bastard alright.

loyatemu

he is funny, but he loves himself. Also his interviewing technique consists of asking ridiculous questions with a view to telling corny jokes based on the answer.

His interview with matthew kelly remains one of the most toe-curling things I've ever seen on TV!

SprostonGreen

Yeah, I love it, have done for years. Read his autobiography if you get a chance, its a great read.

I love the way he does a stand up routine before he interview his guest.

The Matthew Kelly thing was great. LL Cool J was legendary guest also.

Myleene Klass from Hearsay was on it about two weeks ago and he was asking her really tough questions about why evryone in Britain hates her guts, and she just bursted out crying. Frank didn't have a clue what to do.

Were you watching on Uktv?, that sounds a bit older than a few weeks ago to be honest. I think I saw that show, then saw her on Buzzcocks later, where Lamarr made a joke of it.

Paramount Comedy 2, that's the only place it's on isn't it?

SprostonGreen

You could well be right, I'm never sure on the names of digital channels.

I find him funnier when he's on Unplanned. He's better with Baddiel than on his own IMO.

limerick_man

Unplanned is so great!

Fuhrio

the mylene class thing is about 2 years old.


i assume you;ve all been watching it from the repeats that are on paramount at 12 30am every night.

Yea, its a quality show, hes no parky though.

I find him to be a bit of a biggot... very hateful person altogether, used to find him funny, then started to see that a good 60% of his 'funny' jokes are based on bitterly taking it out on celebrities rather vindictively (and not in a funny way like Conan or Graham Norton...).

SprostonGreen

Does anyone know what the song is that the Skinnerettes sing, throughout the show? I think it might be a Fall song.

Yeah like the fella and his show,but why is it on so late and whats going on with his hair? Would love to see him in 'Im a Celebrity get me out of here'.

Not a patch on the Jonathon Ross chat show on BBC.

Would have to agree totally.

Fey!

Ross is priceless!

I think in the older FS shows he has short hair, and in the new ones he has longer, grayer hair.

And the music sounds to me like they keep singing "Funtime Frankie", but my hearings shot so it probably isn't!!!

You mate, haven't a clue. Baddiel is up there with Fiona Looney in the un-funny stakes.
