Controversial Frankie Boyle took comedy to a disgusting new low last night as he made vile jokes about The Queen and Kate, the pregnant Duchess of Cambridge during a TV fundraiser.

The Scottish 'funnyman' was booed by the crowd as he joked he wished the queen had died, and made an unprintable gag about Kate fell pregnant.

In a revolting 10-minute routine on Russell Brand's Give It Up For Comic Relief event, Boyle also drew gasps with a particularly crude jibe at Oscar Pistorious.

Boyle's routine was deemed in such bad taste that it was axed from the 'almost-live' broadcast of the show on BBC Three.

'I wish the Queen had f***ing died': Frankie Boyle was booed after his foul-mouthed routine during Russell Brand's Give It Up For Comic Relief on Wednesday night

Just moments after arriving on stage, Boyle, who looked noticeably larger than usual, kicked off his rant, with the Queen his first victim.

'I wish the Queen had f***ing died the night before the Royal Jubilee'

Referring to the monarch's recent hospital stay for gastroenteritis, Boyle then said: 'I wish the Queen had died the night before the Royal Jubilee - I wish she'd just f***ing died.

'But they wouldn't have been able to tell us that she'd died. They would have had to hollow out her body and get that guy who plays Gollum to wear it.'

But Boyle's quips about the country's beloved monarch did not go down will with the star-studded crowd, who were quick to boo the comedian as his jokes went too far.

Boyle's next subject was the Duchess of Cambridge, with the comedian making a crude joke about the royal's figure, before adding: 'I can't believe she is pregnant to be honest because she told me she was on the pill.'

Taking aim: Frankie certainly didn't tone down his routine for the fundraising evening

Victims: Queen Elizabeth and the Duchess of Cambridge were among the people Boyle took aim at during the routine

Commenting on the Jimmy Savile scandal, Boyle said: 'I think the BBC made Jimmy Savile wear that jewellery so children could hear him coming.'

Refusing to stop with his offensive routine, Boyle then said of the Pope, who recently resigned from his Papal duties: 'The Pope must have done something that even the Catholic church found unacceptable.

'My theory is that he f****d an adult woman.'

Rotund: Frankie looked significantly larger than usual as his grey suit strained at the seams

Scandalous: Frankie also joked that Oscar Pistorius surname sounds like a 'spell Harry Potter would say to make someone's legs fall off'

'Pistorious sounds like a spell Harry Potter would say to make your legs drop off'

Boyle's last victim of the evening was athlete Oscar Pistorius, who was recently charged with the murder of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.

He said: 'Pistorius to me sounds like a spell Harry Potter would say to make your legs drop off.'

And Boyle's unique brand of humour didn't go down too well with fans at the event, with many taking to Twitter to comment on the offensive jokes.

One user wrote: 'Once again @frankieboyle you show what a complete knob you have turned into. You were once the funniest comedian around, now you are just sad.'

No strangers to controversy also: Jack Whitehall and Jason Manford were among the other funnymen who performed at the event

Showing them how it's done: Legendary comedian Eddie Izzard was among the headlining acts for the event

And another tweeted: 'The problem with Frankie Boyle isn't that he's offensive, it's that he's not funny. The 21st Century's Roy Chubby Brown #unhilarious.'

But a fan of the comedian argued: 'Why is everyone having a pop at Frankie Boyle, its a joke for god sake, the fact that some people can't grasp that worries me just slightly.'

It's not the first time Boyle has caused controversy with his humour.

Own brands of humour: John Bishop paid tribute to Brand for organising the event, while Noel Fielding came on stage dressed as a 'New York cop' to give anti-drugs advice to the crowd

In 2010, regulating body Ofcom received 469 complaints when Frankie cracked jokes about cancer victims.

He also joked that year about Katie Price's 10-year-old son Harvey, who suffers from severe autism and septo-optic dysplasia.

Boyle also caused controversy when he posted a message during the Paralympics opening ceremony saying 'Apparently the Saudi Arabian Paralympic team is mainly thieves' – in reference to the practice of amputating criminals' hands for stealing.
