I didn't see the show.Did Boyle really say that?If he did it does seem over the top?
Yes, along with about 30 minutes of other equally offensive and un-funny things.

I watched the whole of that episode but I'm not going to bother again. His routine is designed to make people drop their jaws with amazement that he would dare say the sort of stuff he does. The problem is, he's so busy being gross, he often forgets to be funny as well.

He's much better in a setting like Mock the Week, where he has to restrain his urge to shock a little. IMO he's a lot funnier in those situations because he has to be more creative in what he's saying.
