Saw more of him on panel shows tbh, but absolutely loved his delivery. That lovely dry, understated laconic wit, it's right up my street. The type of guy who could make me laugh just reading the phone book.Silent Majority wrote: ↑18 Aug 2021, 1:38pmLoved his stand up.

I am one of the familiar Americans—I was coming here to make the announcement myself.

Shocked to hear about Sean Lock, fantastic at what he did, dry humor with perfect delivery.

To my shame I only found out today while reading one of the obituaries that he'd made a sitcom, 15 Storeys High. Just watched E1 on you tube and while it feels like a bit of a slow burner, there are some cracking lines in it.Kory wrote: ↑18 Aug 2021, 3:07pmI am one of the familiar Americans—I was coming here to make the announcement myself.

Definitely takes a while to get into, but certainly an underrated series.Low Down Low wrote: ↑19 Aug 2021, 7:09pmTo my shame I only found out today while reading one of the obituaries that he'd made a sitcom, 15 Storeys High.

15 Storeys High deserved the success of the Office (and vice versa?)

The drag of being an american fan is that you certainly don't hear about things like this unless you have time to look through the filmography of everyone you like. I'll definitely be checking this out, thanks!Low Down Low wrote: ↑19 Aug 2021, 7:09pmTo my shame I only found out today while reading one of the obituaries that he'd made a sitcom, 15 Storeys High.

No worries, like i said i only discovered it myself yesterday. I only really knew him from that 10 out of cats thing, a show i wouldn't have spent 2 minutes watching only for Sean Lock!Kory wrote: ↑20 Aug 2021, 12:48pmThe drag of being an american fan is that you certainly don't hear about things like this unless you have time to look through the filmography of everyone you like.
