where has Frankie gone? ( I mist the first 5mins) It was strange not having him around.

Frankie was ill so David Mitchell was filling in.

Good to see Milton Jones on TV, a very funny guy

The Sun was reporting that Frankie was going to do the show but he got taken to Hospital with a suspected heart attack, but his manager has denied the claim, hope he gets better soon.

Quite a different show tonight I must say, but still funny indeed. Dara, Andy and the other guy who was on Frankie's and Hugh's team (I take it that was Milton) all were on fire tonight.

There's still one more left in this series, but I guess they'll do what they did last year and show a compilation episode at Christmas.

Strange there's only been one report (in The Sun) about Frankie's illness as well. Probably just exhaustion, apparently he's ok now.

Chortle has a report on it: http://www.chortle.co.uk/?id_news=9677

Seems it was very last minute and Ben Norris was originally the warm up act so he filled in and David Mitchell moved over to fill Frankie's seat

Yes, Milton Jones was the surreal one with the loud shirt next to Hugh.

A series of his radio show is being repeated on Radio 4 at the moment: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b007cnxp/Another_Case_of_Milton_Jones_Series_2_Episode_2/

EPGs said it was episode 12/13 this week. It's not the first time this has happened.

I quite enjoyed David Mitchell filling in for Frankie - I could see that working permanently if Frankie decided to leave.

David's good on whatever panel show he appears (hosting or playing), I wouldn't have thought he'd become permanent on MTW though, too many other irons in the fire

It'd be hard to find a place for David as all of the others seem impossible to replace. I think this moment without Frankie proved this.

I think Frankie missed by the others, even if they did kill Frankie the fly! Milton was great, I agree... I thought Andy was above par as well.
