sean lock never failed to make me, a random korean girl binge-watching british panel shows on CZcams, laugh until my stomach literally hurt RIP mr lock, and thank you helping me get through some of the darkest moments of my life
Sean first became my hero during that moment with Rory McGrath; he was the ONLY ONE who didn't let McGrath get away with his showing off and generally condescending attitude to everyone else on that particular show. His was a special kind of comedic anarchy, and he was a master at it. RIP, Sean.
McGrath asked for the answers before hand, and was allowed such because most of the guests ask for a couple to form jokes around as it’s just a bit of fun in the end. But Rory just used it to answer EVERY question right. And while Fry’s hands were tied, Sean’s weren’t.
@@Ranger1812 as already mentioned, Rory asked for the questions beforehand, and he researched uninteresting facts related to those questions so he could seem smart, which is pretty pathetic... But even if he didn't "cheat" in this way, it still wouldn't be anti-intellectual to make fun of his behaviour. It's not the least bit intellectual to memorise pointless trivia about latin terms and to reel them off in a comedy show, to the boredom of everyone. If anything it shows a complete lack of intellect, in that only a fool would think that anyone would find his uninteresting recitals impressive.
@@Ranger1812 Please explain this to me in excruciating detail whether I want to hear it or not. I'm quite sure everyone will find you fascinating and terribly clever.
@@silverysnowfox Pardon my Australian forthrightness, it's a stinking hot day and I've had a couple of, well a few, beers, but that Rory wanker is the biggest fuckwit I've ever seen on CZcams. :)
The funny thing about Sean going off on Rory about his bird knowledge is that Sean was actually a bit of a bird watcher and would regularly holiday with Bill Bailey... But as many people said he was the ultimate contrarian.
Because he was intelligent enough to know the difference between an interesting conversation and verbal masturbation. I'm pretty knowledgeable about some topics but I wouldn't completely interrupt the conversation so that everyone could listen to me prattle on minutiae of details like an encyclopedia. Rory was just being a prick and was called out on it.
@@Dendarang And Stephen, being of a similar personality, was in a verbal masturbation competition with him. That conversation would likely have gone on for ages if Sean hadn't stepped in with his antics.
@@felisd I don't know that that's fair to Fry. He was just trying to explain the difference between 'the latin' for a species, and what people who actually spoke latin called it. His point made, I think he'd have moved on.
@@WalterLiddy No, it was perfectly fair. He immediately went to the defense of another know-it-all. If you recall a previous episode with Jimmy Carr (can't recall which one) where Fry was trying to tell an overly long serious story and Jimmy keeps making jokes about it. Fry got really pissed off, which made it better from my point of view.
I still can't believe it. People are always saying "Which celebrity death hit you the hardest?", expecting Elvis or someone like that. For me, Sean Lock is way up there. I'm really disappointed that I didn't see him live before he died.
Sean Lock knew and understood that they're all on this panel show to make people laugh and be entertaining, whereas I think McGrath was so focused on showing off how much stuff he knew that he kinda forgot that! Read the room Rory!
@@SunnyIntervalsORG Rory was never invited back for that reason. He ruined the episode. I remember Alan and Stephen both joked in a later season how bad it was

Honestly, the "Dalai Farmah" remark honestly is the most genius remark I've ever heard anyone think of right on the spot. It's often seen as Bill Bailey's highlight but honestly, the final slam dunk is the thing that clearly makes it as memorable as it is. I'm sure not everyone will agree but Sean will forever hold the top spot of most genius impromptu remark ever during any show like this.
RIP Sean Lock, always loved his interjections and the tangents that he’d go on. He will be missed ❤️ Edit: I originally said rants when I meant to say tangents
This is a nice comment, but I’d prefer to say the world was delightfully darker WITH him haha. Brilliant guest on any panel show, tv won’t be the same without him.
McGrath is an arsehole who also (allegedly) cheated on They Think It's All Over. I like someone spotting it very quickly and coming up with a deliberately silly way to provide the audience with something better. The comedians are given a few questions to come up with material ahead of time but more use it to craft "spontaneous" jokes rather than try to win a competition where nobody really cares about the points. The best guests are those who are actually smart/witty & come up with knowledge/entertainment on the rest of the show.
Rumored to be one of a couple of guests who insisted on getting the questions in advance so that they could research stuff ahead of time. So Sean shutting him down straight away was definitely appropriate.
It's a shame this didn't include my favourite Sean joke, possibly of all time, where his answer for "What was the most disastrous composition" was to sing "Free Myra Hindley" to the tune of "Free Nelson Mandela" by The Specials. The sheer madness, darkness and ridiculousness of that joke could only come from Sean Lock's mind. Rest in peace Sean.
@@multanocte6431 Crying does not make anyone stronger. It's a complete myth. If anything it damages your health. In fact it can kill a person in many different ways. So yeah I am saying it is garbage.
Dam Sean, didn’t think I’d get hit so hard by a strangers death. Watching all these shows after school in Australia when I was 16 helped me deal with a lot of loneliness I wasn’t fully understanding of how to address at the time. The way Sean carried on through his final days with a smile and joke ready, all while dealing with his imminent death is a testimony to his character and strength. “He looked like fun to be around” Rip
As an American I had just recently discovered 8 out of 10 Cats, QI and all the other shows Sean has been on just a few years ago. I remember fondly binge watching every video I could find on youtube and just how quickly Sean became one of my favorite comedians EVER. He will sorely be missed.
If anything, you're honouring them by appreciating their work even after they've passed. I aspire to be a comedian someday, and personally can't think of a better homage than for people to still enjoy the work I once put so much passion into.
The photo of Sean doing an impression of a Koala being fingered is forever etched into my mind… Rest in Peace Sean, the laughter you lived for lives on.
Have to love how he got buzzed for “mentioning the war” And his deadpan joke delivery Thank you for the wonderful memories Sean We will all miss you I shed a tear with the tribute at the end of the clip
Missed one of my favourites: Jeremy Clarkson: I had a Puffin last week, that's not delicious, but the point of eating it was because I'd never had one before. Sean Lock: Have you tried one of my turds?
@@kisbie i also crack up when he answers "what did nostradamus get right?" with "the hat" xD the only time sean ever thought inside the box was when there was a carrot in it
@@CucumberpatchAddict Someone on Twitter made a meme of that photo of Hitler going, “Look. I’M ready. You’ve spent ages getting dressed, let’s just go out.” 🤣 So many off-the-cuff phrases and bits of weirdness that have lodged in my head. Draughts makes you go bald!
When Q.I. films its final season, I hope they'll do a special episode where they pay tribute to the individuals who have been on the show over the years who are no longer with us: Sean Lock, John Sessions, Terry Wogan, Victoria Wood, and especially Carrie Fisher!
I hope there is never a final season. I love QI. Cats and QI are how I was introduced to Sean Lock. I started binge watching all the episodes after I found the shows and will sorely miss Sean on them.
The moment where Sean is pulled off his chair and falls down is actually a stroke of comedic genius on his part. His chair started to lift off the ground and he saw that if he was pulled harder it would completely go over, so he egged Brian on to fall and give us that comedy gold! The way he just accepted his fate and fell had me in tears laughing!
He had a way of playing an absurd kind of jazz but with words and images. He really was a genius, and, as others have mentioned, we are poorer without his presence.
That's a brilliant description, and maybe explains why other comedians admired him so much. Sometimes even if you can't guess the punchline, you can timewhen and where it will land. With Sean you often got blindsided by his ideas, and before you'd realised it he was off in another direction. Genius.
When I heard the news, I was glad i was in the middle of nowhere, because the scream rattled my car windows. Such a tremendous loss. Thank you for everything Sean.
@@NumberOneChin Maybe appreciate the spirit of the message rather than the grammar. The implication is to have a world where there are more good and decent people and less horrible and mean people. It does not help the world when a decent person dies of cancer and some asshole lives to be ninety.
The passing of a legend! Sean Lock the world is alot worse off without you! My favourite Sean moment on QI was him getting sucked in the portal into the underworld - while listening to Rory McGrath and Stephen Fry argue over Latin! 🤣🤣
@@telectronix1368 I don't bloody blame him! Lol I was considering opening up a portal myself listening to that! Thankfully Sean was there to save us all! Legend!
They say this every time someone passes who are awesome. But there will never be another Sean Lock, his wisdom, his comedy, his whole view on life cannot be replaced.
It was a formative moment in my appreciation of comedy when I realised Sean was my favourite QI regular. Every time he was on, he came out with something that has lodged deep in my head all these years later. Not just the big laugh moments, and there are many of those, but the little throwaway remarks as well. E.g. “I’m gonna be so rich” which I still say whenever I have a daft idea. I hope his family and friends can at least take some solace from the outpouring of love and respect that has followed the terrible news. We will not see another like him again.
Was smiling throughout the whole video. Then the last frame got me. I’ve only felt sad for a celebrity once in my life and that was for Robin williams and now adding Sean to the list RIP Buddy P.S. you missed the rural budha joke
I hadn't heard he died, so I was shocked when I saw the "In Memory of Sean Lock" at the end. Rest in peace, man. You brought me many good laughs over the years.
Sean Lock is honestly the first comedian that made me do the silent crying laugh just from his rants. He truly broke me with something he did on 8 out of 10 cats does countdown. I will truly miss this amazing person.
You can do. You just have to decide to. Try it, look at someone in a new way, appreciate them before they are gone, it's a much better use of your time :-)
Still can't believe Shaun is gone he was such a genuine nice and funny bloke a propper geezer I seen him once in Coventry and said hello thinking id get ignored as he was busy with what I don't know but he still said hello and wished me a good day no matter how much fame Tv give him it never turned him ignorant like most lost a true legend
What I loved about this guy is you could never even remotely guess what he was about to say, but you knew it would be utterly off the wall, usually outrageous and always brilliantly funny...and all in an instant. Legend & a genius.
What about the one where Jeremy Clarkson was talking about strange things he'd eaten & Sean piped up with the classic "Have you tried one of my turds?"
Boy, I have been watching so many Sean Lock videos over the last few days but that 'In Memory of Sean Lock' hit me like a punch in the guts, eyes watered immediately. He's really gone.
Great compilation guys. Honestly got lost in Sean's brilliant comedy watching this and that last bit hit me like a sledgehammer. RIP Sean, you'll be missed!
Thank you for putting this together. Wonderful to see all his best bits and his bizarre ad lib humour once again. He will be sorely missed. A remarkable man with an addictive, fun personality.
I was really enjoying this video and at the end the "in memory of Sean Lock" really hit me hard. I was so amused by this video that I had actually forgotten that he had passed for a moment.
I love that his persona on 8 out of 10 cats is "crazy pub weirdo" and his persona on QI is "psychotic serial murderer"
"I hear voices, but I ignore them and just carry on killing"
- Sean's QI persona
:D
He was really good at keeping a straight face while delivering an utterly sick burn.

well, he at least left us a great legacy
even when he's no longer here, he can still make us laugh
that makes him a great comedian, i suppose
The photo of Sean doing an impression of a Koala being fingered is forever etched into my mind… Rest in Peace Sean, the laughter you lived for lives on.
It's a wonderful story isn't it. Damn it's sad he's gone
Have to love how he got buzzed for “mentioning the war”
And his deadpan joke delivery
Thank you for the wonderful memories Sean
We will all miss you
I shed a tear with the tribute at the end of the clip
@k c I'm Dutch and Sean was right.. lol!
Missed one of my favourites:
Jeremy Clarkson: I had a Puffin last week, that's not delicious, but the point of eating it was because I'd never had one before.
Sean Lock: Have you tried one of my turds?
Sean Lock was an absolute legend. Such a funny guy. My favourite panelist.
This could be a part one. He had so many 'best' moments
True - I don't think I ever saw him on QI that I didn't get several good, solid laughs. What a master...
The whole of the Germany episode itself could be a highlights one
@@DrDespicable Stephen’s Twitter tribute to Sean rightly acknowledged that the best episodes of QI were the 27 Sean was in.
Making Stephen Fry laugh is on my "gold achievement bucket list."
Thank you, Sean, for getting me through my worst depression episodes.
Comedians don't die. God picks the best ones to do a sets in heaven. RIP Sean Lock. Love you
Feels like i know every episode he was in by heart. RIP Sean, i would've gladly bought your horrible jams.
“No, I’m not gonna make nice jam” is my absolute favourite QI line and no-one else could have thought of it but Sean. I’ll miss him so much.
@@kisbie i also crack up when he answers "what did nostradamus get right?" with "the hat" xD the only time sean ever thought inside the box was when there was a carrot in it
@@CucumberpatchAddict Someone on Twitter made a meme of that photo of Hitler going, “Look. I’M ready. You’ve spent ages getting dressed, let’s just go out.” 🤣 So many off-the-cuff phrases and bits of weirdness that have lodged in my head. Draughts makes you go bald!
@@kisbie ahaha, forgot about that one, what an image xD
"Sean's aliiiive!"
:(
Nobody is mentioning that plants can walk, everyone looked at Sean and thought he was talking boll•x but was right the whole damn time Rip my man x
When Q.I. films its final season, I hope they'll do a special episode where they pay tribute to the individuals who have been on the show over the years who are no longer with us: Sean Lock, John Sessions, Terry Wogan, Victoria Wood, and especially Carrie Fisher!
Linda smith is another.
@@hughanthony2001 Jeremy Hardy too.
I hope there is never a final season. I love QI. Cats and QI are how I was introduced to Sean Lock. I started binge watching all the episodes after I found the shows and will sorely miss Sean on them.
Hold up, when did John Sessions die?
@@jimmy_the_squid9456 Last November, of a heart attack, aged 67.
Tragic loss. RIP Carrot in a Box Champ.
undisputed!!
How soon I'm here says enough of about how much Sean I've been watching since he's passed (and before..), rest in peace sir.
The moment where Sean is pulled off his chair and falls down is actually a stroke of comedic genius on his part. His chair started to lift off the ground and he saw that if he was pulled harder it would completely go over, so he egged Brian on to fall and give us that comedy gold!
The way he just accepted his fate and fell had me in tears laughing!
He had a way of playing an absurd kind of jazz but with words and images. He really was a genius, and, as others have mentioned, we are poorer without his presence.
That's a brilliant description, and maybe explains why other comedians admired him so much.
Sometimes even if you can't guess the punchline, you can timewhen and where it will land. With Sean you often got blindsided by his ideas, and before you'd realised it he was off in another direction. Genius.
When I heard the news, I was glad i was in the middle of nowhere, because the scream rattled my car windows. Such a tremendous loss. Thank you for everything Sean.
We will miss him. The world needs more Sean Lock, not fewer. #RIPSeanLock
If it's any consolation, the world is a better place because Sean was here. Better to have loved and lost and all that...
I didn’t know what to say and then read this and realized you said it for me. Thank you. ☺️
'Fewer' doesn't make sense there.
@@NumberOneChin Maybe appreciate the spirit of the message rather than the grammar. The implication is to have a world where there are more good and decent people and less horrible and mean people. It does not help the world when a decent person dies of cancer and some asshole lives to be ninety.
@@TheAppleLoadout See, now in your message, 'fewer' would have made sense. ;)
Sean's funniest appearance was when he was relentlessly teasing Stephen about his Prep school outfitter .. just hysterical!
"I hear voices. But I just ignore them and carry on killing."
The perfect joke with the perfect delivery
The passing of a legend! Sean Lock the world is alot worse off without you!
My favourite Sean moment on QI was him getting sucked in the portal into the underworld - while listening to Rory McGrath and Stephen Fry argue over Latin! 🤣🤣
Being stuck listening to McGrath was purgatory.
Sean was **escaping** to the underworld.
@@telectronix1368 I don't bloody blame him! Lol I was considering opening up a portal myself listening to that! Thankfully Sean was there to save us all! Legend!
Started looking for this as soon as I heard the news, RIP Sean Lock what an amazing guy
Poor guy... you never know what people are dealing with privately. We lost a shining star in this man, rest in peace.
They say this every time someone passes who are awesome. But there will never be another Sean Lock, his wisdom, his comedy, his whole view on life cannot be replaced.
That ending was *Perfection*
I will greatly miss his cleverness and quick witticisms. RIP Sean.
Proper legend. Sleep well, Sean.
Man, Rory McGrath never failed to come across as a tosser on anything he was on lol
Bumped into him at Liverpool Street Station once. Can confirm his TV persona is very true to life.
Apparently he was given or requested the answers beforehand to that show. What a twat
@@TheManWithNoName786 Although Stephen Fry wouldn't say who it was, he did confirm it wasn't McGrath.
My money's on Clarkson.
@@telectronix1368 I heard it was Clarkson
@@lmm2103 Prob correct. A man as funny as a kick in the bollocks and all the comic instincts of an amoeba.
Having Sean in any show always lifted the mood and got a giggle. RIP Sean.
“So why do i go out killing?!?” is Sean Lock in a nutshell. RIP
It was a formative moment in my appreciation of comedy when I realised Sean was my favourite QI regular. Every time he was on, he came out with something that has lodged deep in my head all these years later. Not just the big laugh moments, and there are many of those, but the little throwaway remarks as well. E.g. “I’m gonna be so rich” which I still say whenever I have a daft idea. I hope his family and friends can at least take some solace from the outpouring of love and respect that has followed the terrible news. We will not see another like him again.
Was smiling throughout the whole video.
Then the last frame got me.
I’ve only felt sad for a celebrity once in my life and that was for Robin williams and now adding Sean to the list
RIP Buddy
P.S. you missed the rural budha joke
The Dalai Farmer!
@@LordMacBeth79 that one exactly!
You can always see the wheels turning. Such a brilliant, funny mind. We'll miss you, Sean.
RIP Sean Lock (April 22, 1963 - August 16, 2021), aged 58
You will be remembered as a legend.
I hadn't heard he died, so I was shocked when I saw the "In Memory of Sean Lock" at the end.
Rest in peace, man. You brought me many good laughs over the years.
One of my all time favourite jokes "I hear voices. But I ignore them and keep on killing."
Seriously hard to beat.
Early QI, and especially shows with Sean and/or Bill Bailey, are some of the best British television ever produced.
Later, not so much.
Sean Lock is honestly the first comedian that made me do the silent crying laugh just from his rants. He truly broke me with something he did on 8 out of 10 cats does countdown. I will truly miss this amazing person.
The whelks had me crying. God it was funny.
@@zapkvr His Rectum of the Year anecdote on Cats does Countdown is pure comic genius
One never knows the true worth of a human being, until he/she leaves us forever.
Rest in Peace Sean. You will be dearly dearly missed.
You can do. You just have to decide to. Try it, look at someone in a new way, appreciate them before they are gone, it's a much better use of your time :-)
A terrible loss, he will be missed. Rest in peace you brilliant, beautiful bastard ❤️ 😭
Sean Lock ripping Rory McGrath was absolutely sweet. Rest easy Sean, we’ll miss you.
Still can't believe Shaun is gone he was such a genuine nice and funny bloke a propper geezer I seen him once in Coventry and said hello thinking id get ignored as he was busy with what I don't know but he still said hello and wished me a good day no matter how much fame Tv give him it never turned him ignorant like most lost a true legend
What I loved about this guy is you could never even remotely guess what he was about to say, but you knew it would be utterly off the wall, usually outrageous and always brilliantly funny...and all in an instant. Legend & a genius.
What about the one where Jeremy Clarkson was talking about strange things he'd eaten & Sean piped up with the classic "Have you tried one of my turds?"
THE BEST quick one-liner comedian! His quick a funny responses were legendary
Thanks for the laughs Sean - there will never be another comedian quite like you. You will be sorely missed.
Damn, only found QI in Jan 2022. Sean was one of the first who stood out the most. Will be missed
"Nooooooooooo. Whyyyyyyyyyy? Nooooooooooo. AHHHHHHHHHHHH. You can't write tears."
RIP Sean
Boy, I have been watching so many Sean Lock videos over the last few days but that 'In Memory of Sean Lock' hit me like a punch in the guts, eyes watered immediately. He's really gone.
Was so glad to see such a heartwarming series of memories Sean gave us over the years. Thank you for putting this up Rest In Peace
A sad day for comedy. RIP Sean thanks for the memories.
That was the most Brian blessed moment ever!
I was genuinely saddened when I heard of Sean's passing. RIP Sean ... :,-(
Glad this was posted! I'd love to be able to watch the older episodes that Sean would appear in. One of the all times greats
Thank you for sharing these with us. Such a great loss.
Such a joyous light has gone out. Tears of sadness and laughter, Sean. RIP
Great compilation guys. Honestly got lost in Sean's brilliant comedy watching this and that last bit hit me like a sledgehammer. RIP Sean, you'll be missed!
Thank you for putting this together. Wonderful to see all his best bits and his bizarre ad lib humour once again. He will be sorely missed. A remarkable man with an addictive, fun personality.
Thanks QI, much appreciated. RIP Sean Lock. Man, a lot of people are missing you.
I can't believe he isn't with us anymore, rip and strength to his family
RIP to a legend.
Sean Lock on form was always the funniest man in the room.
Thank you Sean for keeping me entertained and light hearted during some tough times. Love from the USA.
I was really enjoying this video and at the end the "in memory of Sean Lock" really hit me hard. I was so amused by this video that I had actually forgotten that he had passed for a moment.
