It seems that whenever Claudia Winkleman was a guest on the show, Sean Lock would tell jokes that had her in tears, and that would always spur him on to go even further.
It surprised me how much his passing upset me when it happened.
We lost a brilliant comedian and from all accounts a lovely man too.
Thank goodness we have so much we can rewatch over and over
Countdown was a dry, serious British quiz show with a mainly older audience. As a one-off event for charity, the comedians from the quiz show, 8 out of 10 Cats decided to do their own version of Countdown. It ended up being so hilarious that a whole series was commissioned, and 8 years later they were still doing it.
Sean was an absolute treasure. Such a funny man
That "beamrules"-bit is one of my all time favourites from the show, sadly in this they edited out the walk to Rachel, even those few trippings was comedy gold.
Sean was a humble, seriously kind and generous bloke,with a wicked,dry sense of humour!!.. absolute legend!.
Love Sean Lock. What a genius he was.
R.I.P. Sean Lock . That was one funny guy . He was the only reason that I used to watch that "Countdown" show . I was devastated when I learnt of his death . Funny people like him give me a reason to live and his way too early demise was a lot to bear .
8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown is a Channel 4 show in which people of comedy quiz show 8 Out of 10 Cats play the serious quiz Countdown. The participants mess around & tell jokes, but otherwise it's Countdown.
So sad he is gone, we need more people like him in this world!!!! Long live the legacy!!!
KB👍 thanks for remembering Sean Lock, he was hysterical and sorely missed, your reaction to Sean's challenging w😲 was priceless. Great stuff mate, thanks buddy👍✌️🙏🍻
Sean was one of UKs funniest comedians EVER and a very nice guy too apparently. RIP Sean
I will never get tired of watching Sean Lock. Doesn't matter how many times you see the same clip he still makes you laugh. An absolute comedic genius. It would be worth becoming religious just to get into heaven and see Sean. RIP.
He was so so funny. Was devastated when he passed away.
My partner and I are still so gutted about Sean's death... absolute legend x
Great to see Sean again…he was just so clever and his timing was impeccable
Claudia (the girl with the dark hair he sits next to during his rectum of the year joke) is the half sister of Sophie Winkleman who plays Big Suze in Peep Show
And she is a fox, has been for the 1st time since I saw her 35 years ago...yup...said it ( Hi Claudia)
I can only smile when I hear or see the name Sean Lock. The moment that always sticks out is Carrot in a Box or him changing the countdown music.
I love that you have embraced our culture
Sean Lock. Yet Another great loss to the world amongst many. The mention of his name brings a fond smile to my face. How many of us wish to achieve such a legacy in our own families let alone the wider public. Thanks to people like yourselves, Across the pond. Extending the reach of his enormous worth in these times of frustration and disappointment in the people who govern our lives. R.I.P. Sean. Thankyou for being free from f..ks. 🏴👍
I used to drink with Sean in Woking in the early 80's. He was a lovely guy. Just as funny off stage as on.
I saw him live in stand up a few years ago - he was excellent
I think his reworking of the child’s classic “ The Tiger that came for tea”, into “ The Tiger that went for a Pint”, was hilarious and absolutely Genius. 🐯🍺🤪
Glad i watched this, he makes me laugh every time, always some things i havent seen before too, what a Legend Sean was.. his mind is like no other, come home to a full mouse trap haha..
The legend that is Sean lock miss him' bless him 😅🤣😂😇👏🙌👍🎉
Have you watched the "carrot in the box" game with sean lock? Thats super funny and shows just how much he can ad lib on the fly 😀
Love your reactions man. Your genuine laughter is getting me through work. Hope you and your Mrs are all well.
Sean Lock, brilliant, thanks for showcasing his talent. I laughed and also got upset by his passing all at the same time.
I still watch clips with him in regularly. I never get tired of him. He just makes you smile :)
Me and hubby went through a stage of watching him all the time, we went on holiday and hubby told me Sean had died and I thought he was joking!
Such a big loss!
Yeah like most comments say- his passing really effected a lot of Brits, he was such a nice nice, HE NEVER EVER SOLD OUT, he was a geezer
The world really is a much less pleasant place without Sean Lock in it. It's strange, celebrity deaths don't really resonate with me, but I still feel his passing whenever I see clips of him or watch 15 Storeys High (another show for KB to check out)
Is still crazy to think Sean isn't with us no more
I miss Sean 😢 if you watch the latest uk comedy awards they do a proper tribute to Sean which will bring tears to your eyes
I still watch a lot of Sean's "best bits" clips from 8 Out of 10 and Cats Does Countdown when I've had a shitty day and need a laugh.
Never really been gutted about a celeb dying before, but Sean's passing made me sad.
What a guy, there's just no rectums like his anymore.
Claudia Winkleman is brilliant on WILTY. Please check her out.
The No.7 products at Boots joke is reference to their having, for ever really, a buy 2 get one free deal.
Countdown is a Channel 4 daytime quiz show, Susie Dent and Rachael Riley are on it, Rachael took over from Carol Vorderman (you often hear Jimmy refer to her). 8 out of 10 Cats is a Channel 4 evening comedy panel show.
One day a lot of shows did other shows, X Does Y (even other channels shows) for "Stand Up To Cancer" SU2C.
8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown was such a laugh they kept making it.
The R.N.L.I is the Royal National Lifeboat Institution which is a 200 year old charity manned by volunteers (you can watch a program called "Saving Lives at Sea", not a comedy obviously).
Claudia Winkleman is very popular in the UK, she presents "Strictly Come Dancing" (Dancing with the Stars in US). She is better known here than her half sister Sophie Winkleman who was in Peep Show with David Mitchell, Rob Webb, Olivia Coleman and others. Sophie was also in Red Dwarf.
You should check out Mitchell and Webb stuff (comedy sketch shows) BTW.
Sean and Bill Baily were really good friends. You may have seen Bill on EOOTCDC with Sean.
Hope this helps with understanding the TV landscape and some of the references.
Such an original style, no one tells those surreal, twisted " jokes" like he did, his imagination was incredible.
MOBO stands for ‘Music of Black Origin’ so it’s like the Brits or Grammys for genres like R&B, rap.
And the implication is that old people are racist.
@@bendaniel2271 However the reality of a skin-coloured based awards ceremony, is viewed as inclusive lol.
We could forever dispute who was/is the best comedian. I don't think there ever can be an answer.
But if I had we had to choose the comedian fastest on his feet with off-the-cuff hilarity, the unquestionable answer would be Sean. I think this is why be was such a gift to panel shows.
His gift went beyond humour to a Narnia-like realm he could snatch concepts from in a second. Concepts we might all have thought of - given a week or two.
You need to have a look at a memorial to Sean Lock moments on QI on the BBC 1 great to watch 😊😊
I was genuinely upset when he passed away and still am. He’s on TV pretty much every night
You can't go wrong with Sean, RIP
"Would you like to smell like Sean Lock?"
Not at the moment.
Your reaction video is itself a lovely tribute - nice job!
Carrot in a box is modern TV legend. One of my favorites is "how do you stop a dog from humping your leg"
8 out of ten cats is a show based on polls and surveys, with comedians telling jokes. The name comes from the whiskas ads, I believe. The slogan was “8 out of ten owners said their cats preferred whiskas”’ or something like that. Countdown is a just a show about numbers and letters, watched predominantly by retired people and students, but it has a kind of ironic, cult following among the general population. “Cats does countdown” was supposed to be a one-off mash-up for a charity fundraiser, (Comic Relief maybe), but was so popular, they kept it.
The RNLI Sean mentioned is the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. On call 24/7 all year round on the coasts of Ireland and the UK.
Volunteers who drop what they are doing to race to the rescue of those in peril at sea.
We call Beer 'Fally Down Water' in our house.🤤
Claudia Winkleman is the highest paid female presenter on the BBC, she's not a comedian but she hosts a wide range of shows on BBC, including Strictly Come Dancing (Dancing with the Stars in the US). She really could not hold it together, sitting next to Sean Lock..
Hey dude our beloved and says it like it is Sean Lock and if you notice hes sat with legend Cathy Burke or shes on the panel show for many of the clips
Guy was a national treasure.
That 4th plinth in Trafalgar should get it's statue
Yeah, I am usually that relative!!! ❤️🇬🇧
I’ll tell you why I love Sean, is that in 2021 there was very very few comedians who do surreal and slapstickish comedy. Ya’know that comedy that is pure nonsense and escapism. Comedy that can just make you laugh and relax and feel young again
The MOBO award reference is to an award for Music Of Black Origin.
Two of Sean's team are the hosts on American chat shows, Trevor Noah and James Corden.
Love your stuff Boomers!!! Glad you love Sean Lock as much as we did. He was a gem of a comedian, real one off. Only Bob Mortimer or Steve Coogan come close
There's an evening comedy panel show called 8 out of ten cats and there's an afternoon show called countdown that's a contest of people's mathematic and lanuage skills. The evening comedy show took over and made a comic version of countdown hence the name. 8 out of 10 cats does countdown
8 out of 10 cats was first then the show did a 'collab' with a daytime quiz show called Countdown to make their own late night version.
The original Countdown show is an institution over here but is mainly watched by Grandmas so when the 8 out of 10 cats version came out, it was an instant hit!.
With advertising regulations in the UK we could not call a beer 'water' as it wouldn't comply for obvious reasons of been in breach of the trade descriptions act which applies to goods and services and protecting the consumer from misinformation.
"coming home to a full mouse trap".
You must look at the episode where he does an adult version of the children's book the tiger who came to tea. 🤣🤣🐯
I love it how much you love shaun lock, he was a genius, he is missed greatly 😢 ❤️
There is a show called "8 Out of 10 Cats." There is also a long-running gameshow - it's been going for 40 years, I think - called "Countdown." There is also "8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown", which is the two shows combined.
FYI MOBO awards is Music Of Black Origin awards. Diego Maradona was a brilliant Argentinian footballer and later manager.
Maradona was a great footballer, but also a cheating twat! The "Hand of God" incident was so blatant it's unforgivable, along with the fact that he was off his tits on drugs for the majority of his career!
I agree with your favourite Sean Lock clips.
His death was a shock, but there is so much Sean Lock yet to see , his bromance with Miles Jupp is on You Tube,His Whelk Eating challenge, Also some amazing moments on 8 Out of 10 Cats, in a Christmas Special Sean gets drunk on a bottle of whisky during the show and they have to take it away.
Jfyi the RNLI is the Royal National Life Boat Institution, this is a MUCH Loved British Charity that saves ALL lives at Sea, from Swimmers off the Beach, up to Large Merchant Ship Crews around the Coast of Britain. Most of the Life Boat Crews are Volunteers, many Volunteers have died rescuing those in distress. This is just a sample of Sean’s bitter sweet humour. 🥲😁😄😅😁
I agree a beer called "Water" would be a best seller.
That could be canned water from Flint, Michigan...
Or Flint, North Wales UK.
I'm not sure if it's been pointed out in a previous comment but I'm pretty sure the "rectum of the year" bit is from the same episode as "carrot in the box, part 2"
You could hear it in his voice on the last one that he wasn't well. Sorely missed
Legend
Two jokes you might not have got - MOBO stands for Music of Black Origin -- so it's rap and stuff like that, so clearly most people's grandfather would love that sort of thing. The boots voucher literally everybody gets every time they shop at boots regardless of how much you spend or what you spend it on - as a single guy they're great to receive because obviously I buy lots of makeup.
My nicest ever girlfriend was a Boots No7 Consultant when I met her. She was surprised that I knew what a No7 Consultant was. Many men have been dragged into Boots at some time and stood while a girlfriend took 45 minutes to chose a No7 lipstick for a tenner. With Elaine, though, I did have a shelf-full of 'almost empty' sample aftershave bottles.
Really wished I’d seen him live before the unfortunate happened. You should check out Sean’s Total Comedy skit from Cats does Countdown.
Ps love that you react to nearly everything I’ve suggested (I know many others suggest the same things).
Countdown is an Afternoon quiz show on Channel 4; its launched the day Channel 4 did in 1982. Rachel Riley and Suzie Dent are also on the main program, Suzie since 1992 and Rachel since 2009 (when she replaced Carol Vorderman who had been on it since 1982 and was let go; hence the jokes they sometimes make about Carol at Rachel's expense). Countdown is a Letters and Numbers game. For the Letters game contestants must make the longest word out of 9 Letters, for the Numbers game Contestants must calculate a random 3 digit number using 6 numbers. This is a serious show with viewers playing along at home. There is no deliberate humour there; and anything accidentally hilarious is not highlighted (Such as when a contestant made the word Panties, leaving an N and an O unused on the board, leaving the board behind Rachel saying No Panties)
8 out of 10 Cats was a topical panel show presented by Jimmy Carr with team captains Sean Lock and John Richardson (though not initially). 8 out of 10 cats is a quote from a Cat food advert that 8 out of 10 cats preferred Whiskers cat food. The Show was topical, based on the news that week and focused on statistic; but is generally just comedians telling jokes to a back drop of questions about statistics in the news. Viewers don't watch to play along at home they watch to be entertained by the jokes.
8 out of 10 Cats does Countdown was originally a cross over show with the Comedians from 8 out of 10 cats playing Countdown in a one off special to celebrate Channel 4's 30th birthday. It was successful and an additional one off was commissioned followed by a mini-series and then full series'. As Cats does Countdown is not topical it doesn't need to be recorded the week of broadcast which makes it cheaper to run than the original. The actual Countdown part of the show takes up perhaps 10 minutes of the hour long show; and Jimmy Carr normally adds in some visual comedy to ensure the audience doesn't get too bored during the time that the game is actually played. If I recall 20-25 minutes of the show is spent on the introductions of the contestants; which is where all of the clips you have watched come from and is the funniest bit
8 out of 10 cats was the original show and then they did a mashup with countdown. Countdown is another show on ch4
You should definitely react to some Big Fat Quiz of the Year moments! Anything involving Richard Ayoade is classic imo 😂
Mate you make me smile , youve definitely got the British sence of humour 😁😁
Went far too soon, what a hilarious man he was
5:46 Must be water from Flint, Michigan.. 🤔
Seal clubbing is my favourite Sean story on Cats does Countdown
i have a friend who has the exact same laugh as Jimmy Carr, and the thing that makes it even more funny is that my friend is a beautiful woman so it's hilarious hearing that laugh come out of her lol
When He’s doing the bit about ‘rear of the year’ you can hear a rasp in his voice and he coughs a little that was when his cancer had started and he hadn’t told anybody it was starting to take affect and nobody knew. Watching it back it really makes you think how are you just carried on… Sean Lock was one-of-a-kind the worlds earth bit less happy without him 🫶🏼🫶🏼
The first bit is from Spinal Tap
There’s Countdown, it’s a very straight programme for the intellectual, Jimmy Carr had 9 out of 10 cats but combined it with 9 out of 10 cats does countdown. Genius
MOBO awards is a music industry award show for Music Of Black Origin (mobo) if you didn’t know.
2 doors down or still game(my favourite), probably 2 of the best Scottish comedy shows.
They did a one-off special of Cats does Countdown and it was so popular that it became a long running show that replaced (?) the original Cats
There's no replacement. All three shows are still going.
Yes there were 2 shows, 8 out of 10 cats a panel show based around current affairs, what people might be talking about in the street. Going back to watch episodes it does date itself quite strongly. Countdown was the first show broadcast on Channel for when it started airing in 1982, and has run continuously ever since then. 8 out of 10 cats is the exact same show with the 8 out of 10 cats panel transplanted into it. Rachel and Suzy both appear on the original Countdown show as well as the 8 out of 10 cats variant. Jimmy does not.
The can label thing is for copyright, I don't think some channels are allowed to show branded items
You need to start doing not going out reactions more, loved that reaction and I bet you loved the show
8 Out Of 10 Cats vs 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown: 8 Out Of 10 Cats -older comedian panel show (teams used to be captained by Jon Rchardson and Sean Lock) trying to guess (and riffing) on topics that were results of surveys of the British public each week. Name of the show is a reference to the reliance on surveys and the old Whiskas cat food ads that had the tag line "8 out of 10 cats love Whiskas". It's still on but the team captains are different now (obviously). Countdown is a long playing daytime British game show not too dissimilar to Jeopardy or Wheel of Fortune in terms of expected audience (older, parents and grandparents, etc ---hence the references to Rachel Riley's likely impact on their 'normal' audience). Several years ago, to fill a later evening timespot, they tried a mashup of the two shows -- the basic format of Countdown with the comedians from 8 Out of 10 Cats -- hence the name "...does Countdown". The first shows only had Jon and Sean (as Coundown normally only has two contestants at a time) but they adjustd it to 'teams'. As you've discovered, the mashup was an enormous hit. Now -- start reacting to some of the QI BBC programs!
