Comedian Frankie Boyle has announced a huge 22 date tour of the UK with his latest show, Hurt Like You've Never Been Loved, promising 'despair' for all. We're expecting at least a few laughs and, if you dare go to the toilet during his set, lock outs too.

These are some big venues on what looks a gruelling schedule, with Boyle apparently out to offend as many people as possible in the shortest amount of time. Keep an eye on the tabloid headlines, it should be a blast.
