- I miss The Frank Skinner Show. Anyway, Dame Helen is on form and the Matthew Kelly interview made for great telly. Get ready to squirm.
It's a shame I only have half the show. Sorry.
Finally, a version of the Kelly showdown that is not too bad quality
thx for uploading
I love how they did the crunching sound effect on the handshake. Oh and Matthew Kelly did make a Michael Jackson joke on TV. There's footage of it on RUclips somewhere.
Of course Jackson was a nonce, whereas Kelly was cleared.
@@michaelocyoungAnd Jackson was convicted was he??
Though neither a conviction nor acquittal prove anything either way.
I’d never heard the start of this interview so I always thought the hard handshake was real. Not the sound effect obviously
Frank says,it's behind you when they re talking about him in Panto
Big star, mr Saturday night. Just stopped being on TV one day
People make light of all situations, especially bad ones, sometimes it takes the edge of things, but we all know how serious things can get.
OOPS!!! (Dame Helen is just what she is... A CLASS ACT and a gifted actress...) HOWEVER, Matthew Kelly really puts Frank Skinner on the spot... (Skinner DID INDEED make jokes about Kelly's arrest, though no charges followed and Kelly was totally exhonerated...) Skinner SHOULD HAVE admitted that that he got it wrong, made an 'off the cuff' bad joke that suggested Kelly's guilt when he wasn't... Look, it's the way 'Live Comedy' works, I don't think Skinner (a very intelligent and natural entertainer) was being malicious or hateful... (But he COULD HAVE owned up...) "It was a bad call, I went for the cheap laugh, if that hurt you, and it obviously did, I unreservedly apologise..." But he didn't say that.
Kelly (1) - Skinner (0)...
xx SF
Why would Kelly be offended if he allegedly didn’t know / hadn’t seen the the joke?
*_Either_* way, one _could_ hypothesize...
Though neither necessarily *must* imply EITHER guilt OR innocence, it has to be said.
31:10 has to be the most sinister *_seeming_* moment of the entire interview - what he says, how he then ""laughs"", and then how nobody in the audience makes a sound thereafter - not even a second or so after, in a commiseration-type laugh at a not so funny joke - nothing.
As though *_they_* recognised something (maybe about themselves?) on a deeper level??
Or maybe, were genuinely frightened by Kelly/frightened for Frank Skinner because of the tension in the air, just for a moment (I think that's something both he, and Jeremy Clarkson are able to do - intimidate people (seen it before with each of them - AND, they both have intense, frightening stares from time to time)).
But I do think that on this particular occasion - as for Kelly - the audience in the studio (and I wouldn't be surprised if this extended to the watching viewer at home or wherever - maybe especially if there were other people in the vicinity), were in "deep" to the situation while he was talking.
Maybe they were waiting for Skinner to break the ice??
A presumably very obscure one, but maybe nevertheless one of the reasons why civilization fought for centuries for the right to remain private - things can be read into in ways that might not necessarily fairly convey a perfectly accurate depiction of the whole reality of the situation.
How the two ended up in the same room is a bigger mystery to me...
Did someone _else_ pick the guests?
Or was Kelly persistent about trying to get a spot on the programme??
This sort of thing should remain a private affair - at least perhaps until somebody is convicted (though with that being said, convictions and acquittals can potentially be erroneous/in some ways unjust).
Baddiel/Skinner could also be using the excuse of plausible deniability by making the joke in the first place.
There's corrosive humour, and then there's genuinely innocent/unwitting humour.
I think either way, Skinner had it coming.
Kelly didn't come off well in this interview either way - he was in a lose-lose situation because of - not just the *_publicity,_* but also the taboo (which is ALWAYS manufactured in some way) aspect of what was alleged to have happened.
Maybe somebody was "out to get him by hook or crook", and this was the tactic used??
Because someone told him what was said...? He just didn't watch the show.
"Talk like people do at the office".... That has sure changed!
25:40 “I’ll bet” is Frank having a little giggle about you bet here ?
"He shaved his head and beard because he's got nothing to hide. And I would love that to be true......" Oops, Freudian slip there from Matthew.
does anyone know where i can watch the gene wilder interview with frank ? ... its not meant to go very well .
I’d like to know this too.
I did try to find that. From what I can remember of it, what one has to realise is that although he could play some very funny characters, Gene Wilder, the real person wasn't particularly witty and jokey and would never claim to be a comedian, he was an actor. Frank Skinner kept trying to use the interview as a showcase for his own gags which of course, his fans loved but his style is not like Parky who would focus more on asking relevant questions of his subject.
@@Darren68a I can imagine Gene wilder being like that , he was brilliant though . Skinner said everyone he interviewed he sent then a letter from him saying thanks for being on and even though this interview didn't go well he still sent wilder the letter and he wrote back saying it was the worse interview he's ever had and how crazy he must be to even think of sending him a letter .....I love Frank and I love the on screen gene wilder but they were worlds apart.
Frank went out drinking 🍺 later that evening with Phillip Schofield and Jimmy Savile…..
31:10 "sometimes you have no sh*t detector" (Guffaws) (no one else laughing), *_"and I think_* that's what happened that night."
Very creepy.
They are just jokes... said the school bully
Over the last few weeks and months (it's currently Nov 2022) David Baddiel has been on a charm offensive because he, and Frank Skinner, made racist jokes on their 1990s show about footballer Jason Lee. Baddiel recently wrote a book and made a documentary criticising anti-semitic behaviour, however, people have rightly pointed out he's said things that were just as bad making him a hypocrite. This year Skinner admitted in a Guardian interview that he's ashamed of what they did, however, when I look at his Matthew Kelly interview I see him defending the same sort of behaviour. The idea that a comedian can say anything they like because it's only a joke / it's topical is abhorrent particularly when it's the sort of thing that can destroy someone's life. I'm pleased that Matthew Kelly took him to task, however,Skinner had no regrets. Maybe today he'd have a different opinion.
I always thought that Baddiel and Skinner came over as loutish, arrogant, smartarse-entitled bores in that programme, and as with Skinner here and Baddiel now, I'm glad to see them hoist on their own petards.
He's got a pineapple on his head 🍍
@Puppy-ew4be Define woke.
@Puppy-ew4be That is not a definition of woke. Thanks for confirming you do not know what it is. I am not surprised.
You can just imagine what type of person would write a comment like this
21:10 those accents are terrible
Always thought frank handled this well, didnt back down and offer a grovelling apology like they would these days, kelly was in the news and skinner being a comedian told a good joke....Kelly comes across as a bit of knob (imo).
He doesn't have a computer, and he doesn't know how they work!
Oh! he's the one!
I believe him!
Yeah right!
Do you have any evidence to the contrary? (just say "no" if you don't for Christ's sake! 😡)
This was over 20 years ago, 2003. I didn't buy a computer myself until 2010 and I'm only a couple of years younger than him, so...
Very weird guy, Mathew
Why do you say that?
Frank's probably still having nightmares.
he came across as someone who'd by luck been cleared of something they were actually guilty of. I don't know the ins and outs of the story but that how he came across. There was nothing wrong with Frank's joke and he should have let it go. excruciating viewing@@gaskellr44
@@gerryb154_Excrutiating??_
More like _frightening!_ (31:10 is the most tense part).
When he slips and says "I wish I didn't have anything to hide".
He didnt actually say that.
27:50 You've totally misinterpreted what he said.
27:49
You got that dead wrong
You should be a tabloid journalist
