Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on August 16, 1972)

Happy Birthday, Frankie Boyle! May your birthday be filled with as much joy and hilarity as you've given us through years of razor-sharp wit on "Mock the Week." Whether dismantling cultural absurdities or delivering comedy gold alongside Jimmy Carr in “Distraction,” you always leave audiences laughing (and sometimes gasping). Scotland owes at least half its sarcasm exports to your comedic genius.

Your brutally honest take during Sean Lock’s "TV Heaven, Telly Hell" proves there's no sacred cow safe from your fearless humor. Here's hoping today features slightly fewer controversial punchlines but just enough cake and cheer—because we all know a mellow Frankie still packs a fabulously hilarious bite. Cheers!
