As
a recognised face on every episode of BBC2’s Mock the Week, in
addition to his appearances on 8 out of 10 Cats, They Think It’s
All Over, The Live Floor Show, FAQ U, The Graham Norton Show and
Live at the Apollo, Frankie Boyle is an established name in the world of comedy.
Frankie
leapt onto the circuit in style when he won the Daily
Telegraph’s Open Mic competition in 1996, before becoming a
regular and popular compere at high-profile clubs across the UK.
While
Frankie’s stand-up career reached new heights, his television
work took off. After regular appearances on BBC Scotland’s Live
Floor Show (for which Frankie was also a writer), Frankie has
appeared as a guest on 8 out of 10 Cats, They Think It’s All
Over, FAQ U and Mock The Week, for which he is best-known.
Alongside
his work in front of the camera, Frankie is also a highly-regarded
writer. He has written for several series including 8 out of 10
Cats, the UK version of Live Floor Show; 2DTV and 29 Minutes of
Fame.
Through
the facets of Frankie’s career, his live performances stand
strong. He recently enjoyed a sell-out run at the 2007
Edinburgh Fringe Festival with his cutting-edge solo show,
‘Morons I can Heal you’ which sold out its 13,000 tickets
before the festival had begun.
Frankie's
first national tour, Frankie Boyle Live, has been extended with
Autumn dates added due to phenomenal public demand and these extra
shows are already close to a complete sell-out. Tour details are available at www.frankieboyle.com.
In
November, Frankie will release his first stand up DVD, Frankie
Boyle Live, which is available to pre-order on Amazon now: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Frankie-Boyle-Live/dp/B000X8WFUC
