Frank Skinner says he’s stopped telling jokes about sex because he no longer has nights of passion himself.
The stand-up star, 65, often littered his live shows with rude gags about one-night stands.
But Frank said: “I don’t talk about my own sex life now on stage for the same reason I don’t talk about climbing trees. It stopped! Haha.
