Frankie Boyle: If I Could Reach Out Through Your TV and Strangle You, I Would
If I Could I Would.
Directed by Brian Klein
Produced by On the Box Productions
A deliberately provocative stand-up comedy special built on aggressive, dark humor and confrontational energy rather than warmth or comfort.
Free the constraints of Mock the Week's panel show pleasantries, stand-up comedy's favourite pessimist Frankie Boyle takes to the stage in front of a live audience as part of his I Would Happily Punch Every One of You In The Face 2010 UK tour. Those easily offended, beware. Those with dark senses of humour and desire to be entertained, step up.
