The speed with which Stephen says “Nurse! Nurse, he’s out of bed again!” in response to Sean’s claim (albeit true) that banana plants walk always gets me cackling.
Moat plants walk (pull themselves around) just not much. I have a palm tree thats spent the last 6years walking over the wall next to it. Not sure where its going as its just concrete outside its bed.
The best part of this is why. Rory is a huge piece of shit who insisted on getting all the questions ahead of time. The episodes he was on all played out like this, with him trying to one-up Stephen on things he learned on wikipedia the night before. Sean, knowing this, deliberately rained on his parade.
@@TequilaToothpick Stephen's refused to confirm who it was to the best of my knowledge. I always suspected it was John Sessions but at this point, who cares?
@@philm94 it's now generally thought that the person who got the questions ahead of time was most likely John Sessions. Apparently Dara o Briain has said in a podcast that the person who knew the questions ahead of time is now deceased. Everyone just hates on Rory because the role of the really knowledgeable one on the show was for Stephen, not the panelists. That and the fact that Rory seemed to think it was a show to prove how knowledgeable he was rather than a comedic experience.
I always liked Sean Lock, but my respect and admiration for him rose considerably after his 'portal to the underworld' joke that effectively cut off that insufferable Rory McGrath being a self-flagellating bore. Most QI fans suspect that McGrath was the 'unnamed guest' who demanded to know what all the questions would be for each show they appeared on in advance, so they could research them and make themselves look super-clever by apparently knowing almost all of the answers. And, having watched that particular show in full, I can attest McGrath had been smug and very condescending right from the start. Sean was THE ONLY PERSON on that panel who finally stood up to him and knocked him off his pedestal, because Sean was a good man who believed everyone should share the spotlight, not just one self-important prick who thought he was better than everyone else. He could've even been nasty about it, but no - he took the diplomatic route instead, and used humour rather than humiliation so there would be no uncomfortable atmosphere afterwards. The man was a class act, and was taken far too soon.
I have doubts as to whether McGrath was that unnamed guest, as the way Stephen put it made it sound like it was a guest that had appeared multiple times, which is not the case for McGrath.
@@janchapman3445 Honestly, in light of what McGrath had been doing up until that point, that was mild - by ANY comedian's standards, not just Sean's. He'd been condescending to other panel members, 'correcting' their answers when he decided they hadn't got them as 'right' as they could've been, and just generally taking any and every opportunity to make himself look like the cleverest dick in the room - even if that was at the expense of making it look like he'd just 'schooled' another panel member. He was OBNOXIOUS. I had heard it was actually John Sessions who was the 'unnamed cribber' on QI now - but honestly, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if McGrath didn't also pull the same stunt. He was never invited back after this one appearance, so there's that...
I see Sean as the aggregation of all the funniest drinking buddies that I've ever had. It's just silly humour that in theory anyone could come up with in a goofy moment, but every now and then you perceive the deeper level - and his ability to improvise over and over again shows his skill.
What strikes me mostly about these clips is that Stephen was such a natural host. Probably lots of preparation, a wealth of common knowledge and the grace to let the comedians shine.
@@theothertonydutchI think I got that covered by the "lots of preparation" 🙂 To be honest, even the team behind him is sometimes very sharp, sometimes hopelessly lost. (Depending on the topic and depending on your own knowledge about that topic)

There's no good reason not to watch QI with Sandy as host unless you don't like her or just dislike the fact that a woman is hosting it. Now i'm not saying that is the case with you, it might be that you just have too much of an attachment to tv shows remaining the same and not letting them change the way their supposed to.
@@Keyecomposer It's a personal preference, and I tend to agree that Sandy was a good guest. (but doesn't own the show as Stephen did) Maybe there is some misogyny in my personal preferences, maybe it's just homophobia, I will never admit to that of course. Maybe it's just because all the interesting facts are handled already. Maybe the production has made other changes behind the screen, but even Allen doesn't seem as inspired as he was before. So maybe he has misogynistic reasons for that too?
imagine if when they properly read Sean Lock's will, there was a passage that said "okay, I think it should be safe enough now to go dig up all the bodies in the backyard. no matter how many times I confessed, you never wanted to believe me"
Thanks for putting this compilation up. Really highlights how good Sean Locke was. Some of the surreal stuff, like on cats dows countdown, but also shows his intelligence too. In ways Rory McGrath will only ever dream of.
McGrath also falters in comparison to several non-comedians with a lot of knowledge who visited the show, like Brian Cox and Ben Goldacre. Very knowledgable in their fields, but very likable and graceful. Brian Cox also showed some very creative thinking when Ross Noble asked him where you’d most likely find Ewoks in space.
Imagine if in a few years a bunch of bodies turn up and it's proven that Sean did it. And here we have him confessing three times on pretty popular TV shows, in front of a live audience even.
Just after Sean's sad passing Jimmy Carr said that Sean was a comedians comedian, one of the few acts that the other comedians would gather in the wings to watch. I thought that was incredibly high praise and rightly so, still gutted he's gone.
I miss Sean Lock more than some close relatives who have passed. He was such a presence on our screens ... the funniest, most likeable guy...! I genuinely miss his sense of humour so much. What a loss. I hope his family take some solace in the fact that people have been able to let it be known how much he was appreciated, and is missed 👍

There are plenty of brainy people on panel shows, but they don't all make me want to slap my television. Even Stephen had to shut down his party trickery.

8:00 Sean’s timing is immaculate! As soon as he hears the beginning of what we still have to find out is a geeks argument, he’s off!! I just now realised how impressive that is! That guy was a genius comedian, this compilation proves it, though unnecessary, yet heart warming and very much needed to clense my palet of all the rubbish in the news! What a hero. Thank you Sean! And yes i do appreciate the gravitas of the moment (oct ‘23) but it such a pile i thankfully waste my minutes on Sean!! RIP my man!
He was insufferable in that episode. Stephen said there had been one guest who insisted on seeing the questions before the show started taping, and I suspect it was him. He was awful, totally ruined the fun vibe.
@@grf15 John Sessions had famously been a complete nightmare forever, and even his "close friends" barely tolerated him. His career was the result of luck and timing more than anything else. He came up during a boom time in alternative British entertainment.

NOT a twin engine JET plane but a twin engine PROP plane. That was the running gag in the movie Airplane. Anytime they would show the plane flying, the used the sound of a prop plane but clearly showing a jet plane.😊
Fun fact - the movie Airplane was based on had exactly the same audio - they lifted it from one to the other - also the Studios who made airplane bought the rights to the original black and white version so they owned it and could do anything with it they wanted - and parodied nearly every scene - so the rotor vs jet engine joke was in fact funnier than most people realised!!
I love how he jokes about serious topics like his nightly killing sprees. As someone who lost his whole family to said spree, I appreciate that he can laugh about it.
I'm glad Sean was winding up Rory McGrath 😂 he's a typical Oxbridge know-it-all who has to spurt out any ounce of knowledge he has. Well done mate, you studied languages at uni, but memorising Latin names didn't get you higher than a 2.2 did it.
R.I.P. Sean Lock. There's few funny people who had a imagination like Sean, and 😢 now there's one less in the world. On first viewing, the video was both a joy to behold and was worthy of a thumbs up 👍... until 9:29 - 10:37 and then I seriously thought about giving it a thumbs down 👇, but after watching the video a second time and right till the end, I thought again, the memory of Sean should not be treated like that, especially by my dislike of a person who doesn't deserve all the screen time they got, so and I know this is just my opinion, but this video should be visible as a small sample of the spacious and creative mind of a much missed man. One amusing idea, I bet you if there's a heaven, Sean definitely went there and asked them all the questions everyone down here would have loved to ask, it's just a shame we can't hear the reply if he didn't like the answers.
"Did you have an imaginary friend?" "He didnt come 'round much. I wanted to be his friend, he just wasnt interested." If you make stephen fry laugh, you know your actually funny xD. Would've loved to get Hugh Laurie on this show aswell. Him and Steven would've just dominated.
The "Why do I go out killing?" Joke is classic.
Then another episode we find out it's because he ignores the voices. 😛
I ask myself the same question
To be fair he only did that when he wasn't clubbing seals.😆

Fun fact - the movie Airplane was based on had exactly the same audio - they lifted it from one to the other - also the Studios who made airplane bought the rights to the original black and white version so they owned it and could do anything with it they wanted - and parodied nearly every scene - so the rotor vs jet engine joke was in fact funnier than most people realised!!
Haha he was so triumphant at the end there. Great stuff
I wish I could write that speech down about the geese.....
The finger up the koala's ass story made me cry laughing
On the preview it said so captions available on this video. 😂 Your accents mess with AI. I love it.
We miss you Sean ❤
Banana trees actually walk. Thanks for that one Sean Lock
Rory McGrath’s face….
What a joy.
Me:
"I used to be a woodcutter in the Atacama Desert."
Other fella:
"Oh, really ... there are no trees, dumbass."
Me:
"I know, that is how good I am."
I love how he jokes about serious topics like his nightly killing sprees. As someone who lost his whole family to said spree, I appreciate that he can laugh about it.
I'm glad Sean was winding up Rory McGrath 😂 he's a typical Oxbridge know-it-all who has to spurt out any ounce of knowledge he has. Well done mate, you studied languages at uni, but memorising Latin names didn't get you higher than a 2.2 did it.
Is 7:50 the Reddit u/unidan played out live???
I like to think that Sean is out there.
Hes in here mate. We wont forget him.
Killing
He's co-caretaker of the bouncy castle with Lucy
Haunting Rory McGrath and calling him a tosser
R.I.P. Sean Lock. There's few funny people who had a imagination like Sean, and 😢 now there's one less in the world. On first viewing, the video was both a joy to behold and was worthy of a thumbs up 👍... until 9:29 - 10:37 and then I seriously thought about giving it a thumbs down 👇, but after watching the video a second time and right till the end, I thought again, the memory of Sean should not be treated like that, especially by my dislike of a person who doesn't deserve all the screen time they got, so and I know this is just my opinion, but this video should be visible as a small sample of the spacious and creative mind of a much missed man. One amusing idea, I bet you if there's a heaven, Sean definitely went there and asked them all the questions everyone down here would have loved to ask, it's just a shame we can't hear the reply if he didn't like the answers.
RIP Shaun Lock. British comedy legend😂❤👏👏👏
"Did you have an imaginary friend?"
"He didnt come 'round much. I wanted to be his friend, he just wasnt interested."
If you make stephen fry laugh, you know your actually funny xD.
Would've loved to get Hugh Laurie on this show aswell. Him and Steven would've just dominated.
M'colleague was on Series 1 chum
I hope it’s show jumping 😂😂
Best British comedian ever
I miss Sean
