[Closed] As the Royal Pregnancy enters its second day I have…

Is it anything like his comment about Dianna and an orgy in a minefield?

I like the fact twitter tells me Frankie Boyle is like Holly Willoughby. Now I'm not terribly familiar with the latter but I'd assume you don't become one of those Saturday night family-TV-friendly presenters by being like Mr Boyle.

And yet you still wish to chat about it. How rare?

Frankie Boyle tweeted the reason that she is pregnant yesterday. To repeat it on here would get me banned for a zillion years.

Do it, do it, do it

I presume from the coverage that this is more important than the Virgin Birth.

Take the positives though Harry. If this coverage carries on, it greatly increases the chances of us all getting so bloody fed up with it, we finally take the somewhat more enlightened Gallic approach to Royalty....

I'm aroused.

Just looked it up and it did get a lol from me. 🙂

I don't entirely agree with mr boyles assessment.

Very very funny 😆

.... and true

the daily mash featured the headline
"Queen tells Harry it better not be Ginger"

Does anyone actually find Frankie Boyle funny?

It just seems to be the same stuff over and over again

I've seen a couple of his comments now. are we considering the one about finishing or the one about the pill?

Young couple, in love and expecting their first child. That's great news.

That said we will all O/D on the news coverage........

And Frankie is just naughty!

Does swallowing bile regularly, harm your health?

why did the threads yesterday get closed or deleted?

#edit: Just read the Frankie Boyle tweet. Pathetic.

Now if only Frankie Boyle would get banned for a zillion years. He has become a pathetic parody of himself, and some time ago began confusing comedy with publically spewing anger-issue inspired vitriol.

When the royals bother to congratulate me on my sons birthday, THEN I'll show some interest.
In the meantime, why would I be interested that a couple have achieved what they were created to do biologically?

Does anyone actually find Frankie Boyle funny?

He was for a time but now is just someone who seems to crave attention. "Look, look everyone I said something really controversial"

The pregnancy isn't on it's second day - just saying

Well, I just wasted five minutes looking for Mr Boyle's hilarious tweet.

[i]He has become a pathetic parody of himself, and some time ago began confusing comedy with publically spewing anger-issue inspired vitriol.[/i]

You're not wrong.

Good luck to them, i wish them all the happiness and joy that my wife and I enjoyed with the birth of our first. I hope that Kate recovers swiftly from what must be a pretty horrible experience.

If someone like Frankie Boyle wants to increase his "shocking comedian" credentials then let him have at it. I doubt he's the first to have a pop at the royals and won't be the last. Quite frankly I find his brand of schoolboy humour leaves me cold. I may have found it funny when I was 14. I'm not 14 and find him to be quite shit.

Good luck +1.

I'm not especially royalist, but as a parent I can appreciate where they are. Pre-12 weeks is a scary time.
My missus had a miscarriage at 9 weeks, and next time round was ill for 8 months of the 9. Its a horrible situation.

I do think the media should F-Off though and leave her alone. No coverage for another 6 monnths please.

I mostly agree TBH, but I still chortled a little. It's strange I occasionally find Frankie Boyle funny seeing as I'm always being accused on here of being horrifically PC.

Good luck to them, my girlfrind is 6 months pregnat now and we thought she had pretty bad morning sickness, being sick up to 6 times a day. She said although it was bad she would have never concidered hospital so i feel for Will and Kate.

As above an anouncement pre 12 weeks is scary, although we had a number of people asking due to how ill my girlfriend was we didn't confirm anything till after 12 weeks. Fortuneately for us the morning sickness went away completly by the 4th month.

Do think the media should show some compassion and leave them to it for now.

Working for a distribution company who operates within the printworld. I can tell you they are in mega drive at the moment. So no chance!

Significant irony in these threads. 66% of all the times I've heard about it have been you lot complaining about it on here.

If you really don't want to hear about it, please don't start threads!

The important thing is will we have an extra Bank Holiday to celebrate the birth? Hopefully the trails will be drier by then.

I was quite worried about the hospitals after the new survey which says that a third of patients should be put somewhere else due to issues like dementia etc, how reassuring then to have a perfectly healthy young woman hospitalized for chucking up a bit in the morning , honestly wtf is EXTREME morning sickness- chucking upearlier than everybody else ?

It's like ordinary morning sickness except you wear a GoPro and say 'stoked' a lot.

It's more like 95% for me 🙂

Well it's nothing to do with chucking up earlier than everyone else for one, it can be a pretty serious condition.

now I feel all guilty

ex·treme/ik?str?m/Adjective: Reaching a high or the highest degree; very great: "extreme cold". Noun: Either of two abstract things that are as different from each other as possible.

I presume your English is better with the shorter words in the scentance so I won't go through the whole thing.

Frankie Boyle was funnier.

we all know the government needs another bank holiday to blame for the economic performance.

be off with your moderate behaviour and medical knowledge, we want an anti-royal thread.

Ah sorry.

Agreed. If some people could put the same effort into being nice as they do being nasty....

Mrs North ended up "inside" due to hyperemesis. Thankfully no TV crews camping out to catch the sight of her retching and puking almost non-stop during 23 out of every 24 hours for 5 months.

Let's leave the girl alone.

We need time to time to sharpen the guillotines.

There's the first 5 pages of Mail/Express content sorted for the next 2 years.

Ultimate "benefit scroungers"

Not being able to eat at all is quite serious, generally.

FB's tweets gave me the LOLs

If I'd have known Frankie Boyle used twitter I might have bothered with it before now - genius!

So she should stay home and risk a miscarriage then ?

Very poor molgrips. 🙂

No one's complaining about the fact that Kate's pregnant.
No one's wishing the girl ill.

The complaint is about the blanket coverage and the cynical attempted use of the so called 'feelgood factor'.
It's overkill.
The percentage of the public who can be positively manipulated by this
type of story is falling all the time - I'd have thought the media might have cottoned on to this, but it appears not.
What do you think?

Now if only Frankie Boyle would get banned for a zillion years. He has become a pathetic parody of himself, and some time ago began confusing comedy with publically spewing anger-issue inspired vitriol.

I hope she does some preggo glamour photos.

That's about the most useful thing the princess tax drain could do.

I'm noting that you're all men and haven't had the discomfort of normal morning sickness, let alone something that endangers your health and ultimately that of the unborn child.
I'm guessing that Kate and William would like to be left alone to get on with their lives. They aren't like the royals of old, they try to lead a semi normal life on the Isle of Anglesey.

I personally wish them and any other parents to be, all the luck in the world.

Anyone else happy that there is now ANOTHER baby that's being brought into a life of benefit-support?

I despise the existence of the Royals. Makes me sick.

My original point.

Good luck to 'em. Been there, done that and it is hard.

We don't need Nicholas Witchcraft stood outside the hospital telling us about it though and various people queuing up to wear out the radio with the word "wonderful".

Awhooooooooooo! Daily Mail reader alert.

Have you considered selective news consumption? 🙂

Oi! I've had a hangover before. Pretty sure it's basically the same thing. 😛

Good luck to them +1, but first item on the news headlines?

Never read it in my life, STW-er fool!

A thread about blanket media coverage descends into the usual battle lines....

At least on the other side of the world this is down the order on the news...

I like Kate Middleton. And her sister. A nice pair of ladies.

At least on the other side of the world this is down the order on the news

Here in the US of A, the televison entertainment "news" shows are already wrapped around the axle about the pregnancy, gushing all over the place---probably reach the same fever pitch as the wedding did here.
I personally just wish them well.

Frankie Boyle is an idiot. He can dish it out but he can't take it. He blocked me on Twitter ages ago for this hilarious reply to one of his tweets....

[IMG] [/IMG]

You don't like him but you follow him on twitter.

That's a bit odd isn't it ?

I used to find him amusing so I followed him on Twitter. Then he blocked me for that joke (and called me a see you next Tuesday). Now I think he's an idiot.

I would have too, that's a very poor effort.

Maybe he is just a grammar nazi.
