He was a lot less funny than people thought back in the day anyway.

Turns out his contribution to Father Ted was mostly yelling "FECK" and "LADIES" so Frank Kelly could really get into the role

No joke anyone can tell will be funnier than his wife divorcing him because he literally could not get offline to save his marige. He hates trans people so much it lead to his divorce and its really funny.

Surprised he wasn't acquitted, or given a medal, under the current British regime.

Father Ted co-creator Graham Linehan "relentlessly" posted abusive comments about a teenage transgender campaigner on social media before throwing her phone in a road, a court has been told.

He's clearly not well. I'd probably pity him if he wasn't being such a cunt.
