Sean Lock - Comic Relief - Rude For A Reason - June 1999

Sean Lock's segment from the Comic Relief - Rude For A Reason show from June 1999.

[@dazpatreg]

He was like a dadaist. People come look at stuff like this expecting 8 out of 10 cats but Sean was a surreal genius. Gutted I never got to see him live

[@tonysmyth4116]

I'm with you there dazpatreg.... Some people don't know how to spell dadaist, let alone know what it means. My heart is broken, but hey... kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqK3c5-cqZ2ah6M We still have Dylan Moran, Vic n Bob and Bob Bailey too. I hope I never outlive any of them. -if they go all I'll have left is Stuart Lee, and I only love him because he isn't funny.

[@bubblezovlove7213]

He was wasn't he... I think that's why I loved him. I totally love dada and I'm just naturally strange. It just makes sense somehow....

[@mrkeogh]

Saw him in Dublin a couple of years ago in the Olympia and really glad I did see him at least once.

[@jamesthecat]

@@tonysmyth4116 But seriously, we just have to be thankful we still have videos to remember... when Stewart Lee was funny.

"...come look at stuff like this expecting" Cats does Countdown. That's me. I was *very* happily surprised to be wrong. "Surreal genius" is right!!!

I never understood how those bloody things were supposed to work.

RIP Sean

[@brettb9194]

one of my favourite Sean Lock lines (can't remember who died) "yes, it was very sad... fortunately it was also very funny"

[@TheOnlyBabeWithBrain]

Do you by chance remember where he said it? Like on tv, or at a show or something like that

He was 36 in this, and he's supposed to have found out about his skin cancer around 30.

True genius

Thank you for uploading!

[@SEB_UTB]

My mum used to drink two cans of special brew every night - I wish I could follow that with a punchline but she genuinely did have two cans of spesh while watching Corrie

[@ryanwilliams6526]

Was she indoors though?

FACT: sharks will only attack you if you're wet

[@ramsayross]

I only know two comedians who talked about their love of smoking as part of their act. Sean Locke and Bill Hicks. Both died of cancer. Funny that. The moral of the story is : don't take comedians seriously.

[@tonysmyth4116]

...BUT SMOKING IS STILL COOL, YEAH?

[@ErwinPommel]

Ed Byrne has a bit about it. Something along the lines of: "I've thought about giving up smoking, I have. But umm... my mother didn't raise quitters in her house" I think he's still alive.

[@bosseshang8479]

but sean had skin cancer from working on a site, didn't he?

[@Unknown-mm9oq]

@@bosseshang8479 Yes and it was successfully treated. He died of lung cancer.

His bit about smokers who don't inhale made me chuckle

It's a well-known fact that sharks will only attack you if you are wet.

Have you never seen that documentary, Sharknado?

[@abegarfield543]

You bastard. I was trying to flick that fly off my screen for ages.
