Francis Martin Patrick Boyle[1] (born 16 August 1972)[2] is a Scottish comedian and writer. He is known for his cynical, surreal, graphic and dark, often controversial sense of humour.
A stand-up comedian since 1995,[3] Boyle first gained widespread recognition as a regular panellist on the comedy show Mock the Week from its beginning in June 2005 until his departure in September 2009.[4] After he left Mock the Week, Boyle created and starred in the Channel 4 sketch show Frankie Boyle's Tramadol Nights (2010) and BBC Two's chat show Frankie Boyle's New World Order (2017–2022). In 2020, he presented a four-part series on BBC Two, Frankie Boyle's Tour of Scotland. He has embarked on a number of tours, releasing several stand-up specials.
