Sean Lock has died aged 58. What a talented guy he was and another person gone far too soon to that illegitimate and odious disease.

Think it was clear that something wasn't right with him when he appeared on TV in recent times. Didn't know he had cancer but I suspected.

I thought he was a brilliant comic and one of the few that could make me laugh out loud consistently. Sad loss.

Yeah, very sad news indeed.

One of my favourite stand-ups.

Gutted about this. Seen him live a couple of times and always great.

15 Storeys High is an absolute classic sitcom that went under the radar with a lot of people.

Got to admit, I've never seen it, though the name rings a bell. I'll perhaps have to search it out as he was a very funny man. Always willing to go very near the knuckle to get a laugh, which is an approach which appeals to me!

I didn't see it until a few years after it was first shown, probably either lost late at night in the schedules or some obscure channel. I think a lot of it is on YouTube. Brilliantly cast with him and Benedict Wong.

Sad news. He was funny as fūck. He certainly had a different take on things.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
