Frank Skinner chats with Sean Lock

It just occurred to me how wonderful it is for his children to be able to see all of this outpouring of love for their dearest dad.

Wow you have actually made me less sad about his passing his sense of humour is literally how my brain is wired and I was so upset when I found out but his kids will be getting older and will be in a stage where they enjoy his comedy gold and see how much he was loved by his fans ❤
i think the biggest shock hearing about his passing is, its like youve lost a mate, really genuinly saddened when i heard the awful news and likened it to a mate dying...so very very sad. what a brave brave gloriously funny man. so very sad at the mo.

You summed it up exactly. I don't know any of these TV people, like most of us, and rarely, I feel a certain link. Writing it makes me feel like one of these crazy fans that I despise but being his age, it is a huge wake up call, not to mention the feeling of a huge loss tomy comedy world

And that it was so unexpected. Someone you’re very fond of, even though you don’t know them, but you like them. He was one of the first comedians that caught my attention when I first saw him on QI. A delightful person.

Still in disbelief with his passing. Feels like a friend or family member has gone. Thoughts with his friends and family. His kids should be extremely proud. What a true talent. X
Sean and Rik Mayall. The only two comics I've cried over when they passed.
I like how he lets Skinner own the show and doesn't try to outdo him. Classy.
Besides being a naturally funny guy, there is a great warmth and humility to Sean. God bless Sean, we miss you.
Sean will never really die. His legacy is here for all to see. I don't think I've ever seen such an outpouring of love and sorrow for the passing of a celebrity. He was and is a joy to behold, a fabulous sense of humour.
Actually one of the few people who can hold a candle to Sean Lock in unscripted conversation is Frank Skinner

And he was in good company in Frank since Frank cleaned himself up and got off the Alcohol. Gutted to hear that 15 Storeys high not succeeding jaded poor Sean, I suspect it's going to actually garner more attention now, which is bittersweet
I'm American, and I only discovered Sean about a year and a half ago. I was completely gutted when I heard he was gone. Felt like I had just made a great new friend and then lost him too soon.
I know I'm not alone in knowing that even though I never got a chance to hang out with Sean, watching him in his element, surrounded by friends and doing what he did best always made me feel like we were there at the table. Rest easy Sean.

Two great, proper comedians. Been watching 15 Stories High again, great stuff. God bless him and his family.
Top bloke was Sean.
Re-watching this again. Two of my most beloved and most wonderful characters who happen to be comedians. I love how Frank tries to understand the concept. That’s because he is really interested. He never used that to be entertaining. It’s like a comedy lesson this. Sean was a genius, we all know that. Frank really tries to get into this, see how this works. It’s very honest. It’s very beautiful and real.
I'll always watch Sean's video's,he was a fantastic comedian..he will never be forgotten!

Sean Lock's catchphrase: "Oh.. 'ello?" Brilliant.
It's quite sad seeing him there with his parka on the back of his seat. I imagined one day bumping into him on the street, politely asking him if we could go for a pint, and then, instead of just filling him with platitudes, talk about my admittedly dull life as well as talking about how blimmin funny I find him. I had tickets for his last tour which he cancelled due to his health presumably. Lucky escape for him as I would have been hanging about the rear exit for the Eden Court theatre, had it gone ahead!
I love Sean Lock

Sean Lock is a fantastic experimentalistic and a true living man, who outstrips most self-described adventurers, philosophers and scientists at their appended attribute. He is a "sane adventurer", able to improve him output with the testing and introduction of new ideas without ruining what already works. He prospers on the chaos of audience participation, and grows on his own backfires. Treasure this man.

Love the banter between Sean and Frank here. Two of my favourite comics. The bit about the cemetery was lovely. Love how Sean wasn't "on" as such, not trying to outdo Frank. He has this genuineness underneath his funniness. And just hearing how he helped out Frank when both were probably struggling comics didn't surprise me at all. RIP Sean.
i hate people, but i love that man
can’t believe Sean has passed. Such a great person to listen to. RIP

Yeah, but what a legacy he has left. My youngest son Harry died at 15 after a battle with leukemia. Been to Highgate cemetery and I thought, is Karl Marx's grave a communist plot! Seriously though, Harry (my youngest son) whilst in hospital, said, "Dad when the girls from School come to visit me, I want to say, "I `m not afraid of dying, I just don't want to die a virgin." then he laughed and within a month or two died a virgin;

Sean Lock sounded like Michael Caine. Not a lot of people know that.
There was a playful cheekiness to Sean Locks comedy which was in contrast to some of the more cynical comedy you get these days. He was inventive but lighthearted.

The donkey laugher is initially a good sign of succeeding as a comedian. But when they've become a household name, the fake donkey laugher emerges and uses it to get the comic's attention when the DVD is being filmed.
