As a Fall fan, I think its very hard to tell the difference.

RIP David! There hanging out again over the rainbow in Franksville land! Isn’t that fantastic? Isn’t that brilliant? As frank would say?? Thank you!!! 🌹

All 3 now gone ..RIP David , Chris and Paul

We miss you Frank!! And little Frank too!! There both Hitting the north now in the great beyond to Frank land!! Thank you!!! ❤️RIP

This is the best video on youtube

The only Fall cover that's acceptable

"If it's me and Little Frank on bongoes, it's still the Fall"

RIP David Soul. The last remaining member of this supergroup!

Genius. His entire act showed how utterly vacuuous celebrity culture is. Just at the time it was reaching its peak. Perfect.

I wish I was raised in MCR sometimes so I could see the brilliance of these bands and this show. Being raised in Herts, Essex, and Kent, I wasn't exposed much to the work of Frank Sidebottom. My first ever hearing about this character was from that Michael Fassbender dramedy FRANK. This is outright hilarious...especially his squeaky Northern accent.

the definition, utterly, of surrealism. more than that, its just bloody funny and life affirming. bye frank.

All of the supergroup passed away now 😟 But on the other side somewhere there's a reunion of Frank, Hutch, Paul Mondays and both little Mark E Smiths.

I can't help but realize that everyone in this video is dead. Not only that but almost literally every single thing from Frank is dead. Really sad when you think about it. RIP Chris Sievey

David Soul's remark at the end crowns it!

RIP Paul Ryder too.

RIP to all three of these guys.

Miss you Chris - and Horse 😢

seen frank preform in the local working mens club in royton..oldham...only about 8 people were there....it was rubbish but fun...surreal....dream like in bits...got 2 shake his hand before he ran off.......love the fall tribute

YES! Thanks for putting this up here. When I saw this originally, I cried with laughter for about half an hour.

This has brought back long suppressed memories from my childhood, being allowed to stay up late on a Friday night watching Granada TV. At the time I never even realised Frank Sidebottom was supposed to be funny; I suppose I'd've used the term "performance art" if I'd known it; and now I'm inclined to say the same... The fact that this was clearly broadcast relatively recently only makes the whole phenomenon more disturbing.

RIP Paul Ryder.

RIP Paul Ryder

RIP David Soul.

Even with frank (not) on bongos, it's still The Fall.

Ladies and gentlemen, the new director general of the BBC!

R.I.P Frank. You'll be missed, sir.

That was the funniest thing I`ve seen in my life !!

The day Hutch joined The Fall slash Happy Mondays. Crazy and brilliant.

fantastic!

Not enough of this on TV

RIP Frank/Chris. Ruddy bobbins news today.

Frank was something else...funny as fuck!

I'm in love!

I loved this clip. I wish they'd get a 3rd series sorted out. It's been three years since the last one!!

Miss you Frank .... still got Little Franks body :)

"That's the stupidest thing I've ever done in my life." Totally deranged.

I think David Soul has since sacked his manager.

Amazing, the music is awful and discordant but Frank is such a damn enigma, I'm so hyped for the Fassbender film.
