@@danny123451 Apparently he quit radio as they lost interest in eclectic music, and he went on to make compilation albums for record companies. Did a voice acting job in 2020 on radio 4, but that's about it. I'm going to have to watch some old buzzcocks and shooting stars, haven't watched them for a while.
Probably not the right video to be talking about this but man I miss Mark Lamarr. He used to have like four different shows on Radio 2 - God's Jukebox, the Reggae show, Alternative 60s, and something else I think. Got me through many long shifts washing up in a restaurant in my 20s.
Sean was asked if he had a sensitive side: “I’ve shown my sensitive side twice, once to my wife and once to slow down for a horse” RIP you hilarious bugger x
Really gutted about Sean leaving us so prematurely, used to crack me up so often and that crocodile stare he had!!! Also, nice to hear Mark talking so fondly of him. RIP Sean.
05:50 - Mark LaMarr crying. I don't think Sean really had any idea how much we all loved him. He will be sorely missed. A serious talent. A leader in comedy. Respected by other comedians. Adored by the public. We'll never forget him. Never.
@@butterflymoon6368 wonder if he listened to the tears more than once or looped or if he has crying collection and sits in the dark for hours just listening to people crying
I already do, I don't mean disrespect to any of the other comics on it as there are other great ones but 8 of 10 cats will never be the same again!!! ( R.I.P.)
@@davidmiatke6758 Hear! Hear! Jon Richardson, the OCD gnome unable to actually tell a joke. Can you imagine how the current crop of 'comedians' would of fared in the old social clubs? I think only Sarah Millican, Lee Mack and a small handful of others would have flourished. Still gutted that Sean's gone. Comedy scene has just gotten a bit poorer.
I hope Sean knew how much people loved and valued him. I always looked to him when I had had a bad day. His seal clubbing and rectum of the year makes me cry with laughter every time. He had a wonderful imagination, and I loved that he was still in touch with his inner child. He so freely expressed himself and i loved that. my heart goes out to his wife and children and the rest of his family and friends.
@@sandelic1 i watched the challenging w*#k on you tube the morning it was annouced he had died... then found out he had passed... talk about irony uncontrolable laughter to near tears... he will be missed..
I rarely "ever" get upset by a celebrity death but Sean's death has struck me deeply !!! I live in Japan and I would watch Sean at least once per week, His Humor bought JOY into my life !!! A huge loss to the world that needs HIM right now ! I'm so sad for his family ! ! I hope he is playing "CARROT IN THE BOX" with God right now ! RIP
my alex b reply ! Your a FOUR letter word ! The WORD has a C, U and a T in it!!! And its not the word CUTE !! Thankyou Sean I'm going to use this one for a long time!!!!
It's somehow reassuring to hear Mark Lamarr break down. I didn't know Sean Sean Lock but I have been close to tears myself. When my father died someone said - ''He didn't seem the type - I never thought he would die' and I think I feel the same about the great Sean Lock.
I don't often cry when someone dies who I don't know but now, binge watching Sean, crying with laughter mixed with real tears of sadness for the loss. Condolences to his family and friends, what a terrible shame. Thanks for all the laughter Sean. R.I.P.
Sean's humour was right up my street, simple, well timed and nothing overdone. And that is why, I believe many of us are really, really appreciating him, now he has left us. #brilliant
Mmm never overdone?anus of the year🤨😂😂😂been binge watching Sean and he really was just naturally funny.heard another comedian say that for the majority of comedians it’s all about the punchline but with Sean it was the journey to the punchline(if there even was one)funny funny guy.anyone remember his part in ideal with Johnny Vegas?sean just shows up at the door with a pair of tits😂😂😂
I'm really, really happy about that. I've been telling people about him for ages and they typically have never heard of him, weirdly enough. To see that so many people loved his stuff as much as I did is fantastic. You'll be fucking missed Shaun.
Remember Claudia Winkelman sat at the side of him on 8 out of 10 does Countdown, begging him to shut up, because she couldn't breath due to Sean making her laugh so much. RIP
First time I'm so saddened by a celebrity passing, don't know why... I guess because whenever I was really down, I turned to QI, WILTY for some uplifting and laughter, and he was definitely in the top 5 of favourites. RIP Sean
How he just cracked was heartbreaking. It was all happy and how many laughs he brought us. And for me it was like it just sunk in again that his mates gone forever. Thank mark for telling us more about sean. And sean thanks for the belly laughs.
The brilliant "now there's a challenging w*nk" from this genius when Rachel Riley put on a beard & viking helmet was pure gold & one of the many bright rays of sunshine he threw into this often dull & monotonous world; he will be sorely missed :(
Rachel put on her beard-ski-mask and horned helmet and was obviously setting up for a line from Jimmy (and probably a retort from Rachel), but when Sean delivered the "challenging wank" line, Jimmy had the comedic sense to know nothing would top it and to just leave it at that. One of the things I particularly loved about that joke was the fact that Rachel, who was the object of the joke, just laughed and laughed.
And the "seal clubbing / rectum of the year" story which had claudia winkleman begging him to stop as she was in tears with laughing along with others.
Nazi Island......nah, nah, nah, hands waving, Roisin in bits laughing, Jimmy trying to move on. Always makes me laugh and laugh hard. Missing you already Sean. RIP mate 🙏💛💛
I’m absolutely devastated it was such a shock I still find it hard to believe my Prayers and thoughts go out to his family and friends RIP Sean you will be sadly missed 👼😞😢🙏💔🕯
I'm 67 and this gets much worse because a Celebrity or Comedian or Sportsman can be in your life for 60 years and then they suddenly aren't there anymore. Also, you start to lose more of them. Yesterday at Leeds United I saw a one-minute ovation for TEN members of their famous squad that used to dominate Football with Liverpool around 50 years ago. ALL IN 18 MONTHS....since Covid started which is why they did not have individual Tributes at the time.
One of my favourite things Sean said once on QI while they were discussing Schizophrenia was, "I sometimes hear voices in my head, but I just ignore them and keep on killing."
A time when we need comedy with what is going on to loose one of the greats is heart wrenching, the world is a sadder place without him. Thoughts with family and friends.
Remarkable how the emotion suddenly gets to Mark from nowhere. That's what loss is like. His mind projected to his next sentence about how touching the reactions have been and that horrible reality of someone just...GONE....instantly hit him. So much has been said but I'm sooooo glad I got to see Lock's standup live and made a weekend of it, staying over in Torquay, as there were no late trains back. I did the same for Ken Dodd.....yep and he died six months later. H'mmmm. I'm sure Sean would seize the opportunity for a joke there.
If there was one stand up comedian I'd of loved to see live on stage, it would of been Sean, I regret not seeing him but at least he's left a prolific body of work that I can enjoy for the rest of my life.
@@kent2820 Maybe it's my age, but the one comedian I would profoundly have regretted not seeing in the flesh was Billy Connolly. I got the last ticket in the house at one of his gigs on one of his latter tours when his hair had gone fully grey. Lucky! As for Sean....yep I suddenly got a mission in my head a few years ago....rather than buy a ticket to see someone down the road from me, I thought "I WANNA SEE SEAN LOCK!" and no one else!! I saw his Keep It Light tour was coming within 30 miles of where I live and booked it. This is a disgusting thing to say maybe but there are comedians I have no time for whatsoever who are fighting fit, fit as a fiddle and then the ones who go prematurely happen to be the ones I like the most. Before Sean, it was Rik Mayall....I STILL can't believe that force of nature is not on the planet!!
@@davidsanderson5918 It's strange because a lot of recent celebrities have died and I thought I'd get upset, but no one has affected me quite the same as Sean, he was like a best mate down the pub just having a right laugh with him and recognising humour in the mundane his death has made me realise how we can take so much for granted in life until its gone and the sadness that amazing people like him will leave a massive void in our lives.
@@davidsanderson5918 so sad, I always wanted to see Sean live. And Billy Connolly is a favourite of mine too, regretting not seeing him before now also. Legends!
I always thought Sean's brain worked in a different way. How he was able to give the most random and hilarious answers in the tv shows was incredible. "Koalas invented rice".
Well said , my sentiments too. I would like to think I can do that, and then I would hear Sean come away with something random that you would never have thought of in a thousand years and you just knew there was genius in there.
I agree with you that Sean was legend, but saying British comedy doesn't have any legends left is a very silly and stupid thing to say....ever heard of Billy Connelly?
@@gtaylor331 I said "many" not "any". There's a few British comedians i still enjoy but we havent had anyone new that is really good since Kevin Bridges.
Sean is a legend for sure but there are plenty left. Jennifer Saunders, Rowan Atkinson, Ricky Gervais, Billy Connolly, Jo Brand, Bill Bailey, Stephen Fry, David Jason, John Cleese, Rob Brydon, Lee Mack, Ricky Tomlinson, Timothy Spall, Richard Wilson, Eddie Izzard, Jack Dee .........
@@Krass.Estranged you were talking about legends not current comedians. There are some brilliant new guys but you can’t call them anything until they do it for 20 years like the list above
the hilarity of this being on the Jeremy vine show considering how Sean rips into him in one of his stand up shows. wish Vanessa feltz would stfu and let Mark finish.
I'm no fan of Vanessa but she was on a limited time slot, live on radio 2. She obviously had certain audio clips and points that she was told to play and ask. Also the show gave more time to Mark than they give to most of their guests. I actually think she was quite sensitive and comforting to Mark when he choked and if you listened they have a personal friendship and obviously like each other. I doubt Mark thought she was cutting him off but understood she was doing the best she could in a limited time slot within the parameters set by Jeremy Vine show management team. Gutted to lose Sean so young, comedy legend :(
@@jonathansore7641 Nice reply there Jonathan, if that's the way it was, then fair enough! It's nice to see all these comedians coming together and speaking so highly of him.
Shocked to hear about Sean. Genuine comedy legend and was his own man. 8 out of 10 cats with him was awesome, always hilarious. On another note it would be nice to see Mark Lamarr back too.
Smiling and crying when talking about someone who departed. I've seen this in so many that talked about Sean in the past few days and it's a true testimony of a great man. Rest in peace, Sean Lock
I've cried multiple times, I'm sooooooo gonna miss his mascot reveals on 8 out of ten cats does countdown (the tiger that came for a pint). The reason I'm upset is because I enjoyed his off the cuff banter, his brilliant down to earth gritty dark story telling, which we will never get to experience again RIP Sean
I have a lot of love and respect for Mark Lamarr and I got so lost in hearing him talk that I forgot the headline of this video, then he broke down in tears and it cut me up. RIP Sean Lock, another great gone x
He definitely left this world better. If everyone had his sense of humor and the heart felt feelings from seemingly everyone he knew, there would be no wars. As they say "laughter is the best medicine". RIP
Several days in and I'm still trawling the net for more Sean. An absolute superstar of comedy. Feels like I've lost a family member and I'm sure many many others feel the same.
Somehow this is the first time I've really cared about a public figure dying. I can't pin down what it was about Sean. Maybe it was whatever kept him joking right up to the end.
@@SandraSmith-vb5pf - I think he did. There's another RU-vid video where he's on Frank Skinner's Absolute Radio show from 2010 and Frank pretty much says that to him then.
I live on the West Coast of Canada, I'm Canadian and found Sean Lock via RU-vid. By far one of the best and my favorites. I will miss his humor emensely.
I loved 15 storeys high. The one with the energy drinks enters my head often and makes me laugh, and the scene with the guy who kept trying to get into a draw, gave me actual tears and stomach from laughing. You were truly my favorite Sean. You reminded me of my dad. That brain and humour honestly got me through some of my hardest times ❤ thank you
You wasted half a tin of Blue Rat on purpose. You've got a real problem with Blue Rat. Every time I go to the fridge you give me a look. Six times you've done that.
I've been binge watching and reliving all Sean's moments that just seem to have been part of my life for so long I didn't know him personally of course but I've never felt so happy to feel so sad, if that makes sense.. Few people have made me cry laughing so much, he still does only now there's an another element to those tears.. Doesn't take away from the joy he gave me and countless others, evidently You can't write tears, Jimmy You FEEL them RIP Sean Lock ❤️
must be so bitter sweet for seans family to hear such lovely tributes to him , kind comments etc never hear a bad word about sean lock .. god bless his family rest well up in heaven sean lock 🕊
I’m from Canada and only know Sean froM RU-vid and ive watched every single thing that’s ever been on RU-vid with him in it. He’s my absolute favorite. I just adored him. Thanks for all the laughs Sean. I’ll miss you. Fly High ❤️
15 Stories High was a brilliant show I've always raved about and friends never quite got it. I always thought it was as good as any of the best. Sean was one of my favourite comics.
It’s great to hear Mark Lamarr’s voice again, it’s a shame it’s to honour the loss of his friend. Mark and Sean delivered one of the greatest comedy’s of all time in 15 Storeys High. It should be replayed on TV more often.
Gonna miss this guy so much.Im an American who found all of these great panel shows and stand up specials on youtube about a decade ago and its turned into mostly all i watch now.he was a massive part of what makes me entertained and feeling happy now
Sean has been my favourite Brit comedian for years. He was consistently funny. He was always the highlight of any panel show. RIP Sean Lock. I can imagine him mouthing off God "You cut me off just as it was getting good!"
Only twice have I ever felt and continue to feel genuine grief and sadness for a “celebrity” passing away. 1st was Ryan Dunn, second was Sean Lock. Sean was one of the greatest comedians in British comedy. His sketch shows, his early tv work… the little gems you find in that early years of Sean you can see exactly what Mark is in about when he says “comics would always come out of the dressing room when Sean was in. Always”. Truly missed.
I am truly saddened at Sean's passing away. I think he was a genius with an appeal that most comedians can only dream of aspiring to. After seeing his work over the years I was always completely drawn in by his joke-telling, and then consistenly whalloped (in a good way!) by the "out of nowhere" contrary (& always brilliantly comedic) perspective which he would drop in to form his punchline. If that wasn't enough, he would often drop in a razor sharp follow-up line on top of that! ABSOLUTE GENIUS! I will miss you. RIP.
Considering I didn’t even know him, and was just a fan like everyone else, I’m surprised at how often I think about him. He was so relatable and likeable. One of if not my all time favourites.
I don’t think any of us truly realised the impact that Sean had and the happiness he brought us, until we realised that we wouldn’t get to experience it again. One of the greatest comics of all time, and we are so lucky to have got to witness it
I didn't obviously know Sean personally, and I live half a world around. Sean has made me laugh more than any other person on this planet. I hope knowing what kind of joy Sean brought to people all over the world, makes his passing a little easier on his close ones. He will be missed by millions.
i actually wouldnt mind dying and seans the bloke that greeted you... jesus what a frightening thing to think i think alot more people would be happy and willing to die if sean was on the other side giving out the laughs!! can you imagine if sean was the face of god!!!?? here i am looking at the gurning face of sean! lol is that the one where he eats those shit cant remember what he eats but i remember it being hilarious RIP you were from a time when the world was ok when i was sorta ok.... man come to think of it it would be clips of sean and some of these shows i would take with me if i were to go away and i could only take one thing it would be the laughs and.... wtf happened to the world in the last 10 20 years?
I was looking on RU-vid and saw a video saying Sean Locks last video. It didn't dawn on me at that instant what happened. It was shortly thereafter that I came to discover he had died. I was truly shocked, such a gifted and clever man and comedian. My heart goes out to his wife, children, and comrades. RIP Sean Lock, the world is a lesser place without you.
Just found this out shocking news!!! Didn’t even know he was ill 😮 Rip Sean lock you where one funny bastard!! Brought so many smiles to so many homes with your tv appearances best wishes to all the family 🙏 what a legend
I've never been one for celerity worship but when I heard Sean Lock passed away I genuinely had a tear in my eye. I watched everything he was ever in or did and just cant believe I will never see his talent anymore. He will be very sorely missed by many.
I hate celebrity worship, too, but for me in Sean's case I speak so highly of him because I have such a deep admiration and respect for his work. If that comes across to people as celebrity worship, so be it. 🤷♂️
Yep it keeps hitting home, and I've cried. Such a huge loss,l to so many people. His family and friends must miss him so much more. You may be gone Sean, but your laughter keeps on going. Thanks for sharing your humour
Why do we have to here the alarm of sean after he s gone I for one are happy to hear mark talk so highly of him it backs up what I'd thought the man would be
I will always remember his joke about shopping in Lidl is like being on holiday... buying a jar of puffin beaks lmao Love Sean Lock...catch you on the flip side Sean
Bless his soul. So genuine and heartwarmingly funny, and I totally resonate what Mark said about him living in a different world. It seems the brightest stars always do. Legend. Gone too soon and will be sorely missed. RIP Sean ❤️ 🕊 ⭐️ 🐿
Both sides of my parents family loved Sean lock, myself included. His comedy was a big talking point and it’s a strange but honest gratitude I feel towards him for all the happiness he’s supplied over the years.
Laughter has to be one of the best things in our lives and I can easily say that out of 20 billion people, Sean was the one that made me laugh the most. RIP Sean, you’re a legend.
