Not sure if Frankie Boyle is on it this series, there's rumours going round that he's retiring from it :O He said he'd be retiring in the next two years... I think its just internet rumours for this but you can never tell, he said he wanted to retire from comedy within the next two years around January this year... And Dutch... do you even have Mock The Week in Holland

We also have a show based on the mock the week format, but it isn't half as funny... |

Agreed, he is to Mock the Week what Bill Bailey was to Never Mind The Buzzcocks I guess... its still quite good without him but lacks a bit of the character that you get used to... Dutch... you can only get MoTD? :O Football First on Sky is the way forward

No Sky.... MOTD for me... also I watch live matches on the internet.... I love mock the week... actually I probably look at the BBC quite a bit more than the average dutch person... for example, I'm looking forward to the torchwood episode of tonight...

For Football First we get 50 minutes highlights of a game of our choice every Saturday/Sunday Then a MoTD style summary of every match afterwards.Do you get iPlayer in Holland where you can catch up on BBC programmes online for a week or do you have to catch the programme you want or miss out :P |

I have never really watched that. They will have to get someone good to replace him. Not sure who they can. Russel Howard is excellent too though.

To be fair, the panel will still be funny without Frankie Boyle, but it'll just lack those moments where you can't stop laughing because Frankie is so anti politically correct that he says things that no other comedian would dare to say which makes it 10x funnier. Might be one of the comedians who's regularly on every series who replaces Frankie I hope he doesn't leave. Could be Ed Byrne who replaces him or somebody like that I'm thinking... not quite as good as Frankie.

You can use Proxies if you know what you're doing but I suppose for the sake of iPlayer its really not worth it at all!
