I take my hat off to you. The bravery and élan that you have as an actor is something we can all appreciate. Being an actor isn't something that any schmuck can do, like being a soldier or doctor. Being a good actor takes thousands of hours of intense training and studying. If all actors went on strike, every facet of society would crumble away. I hate listening to war veterans whine about how traumatizing war is, I feel like saying "If you think that was hard, try being an actor!" lol jk
if anyone has ever watched 8 Out Of 10 Cats, Jimmy sometimes mockingly calls Sean "grandpa", so Sean being a bit inaccurate as regards the irateness of the Foo Fighters doesn't seem to me such a big surprise
"a bit inaccurate as regards the irateness of the Foo Fighters..." If you are trying to be clever, try to make sense, dummy. And the Foo Fighters have been around for 20 years (when you wrote this comment). Lock was in his 20's when they started making their derivative shit - i'm guessing you were a little boy.
@@simac3880 uhh, I think he's saying that when Sean Locke called them 'aggressive thrash metal' that he was way off the mark. Why are you being so condescending?
About band t-shirts... Once when I was in H&M or some other shit shop I heard a teenage girl say, and I shit you not, "I love Guns N' Roses t-shirts. Aren't they a band or something?"
I hope you corrected her! The best I heard was in a charity shop when one girl grabbed a DVD and said to her friend, "Look, they've got 'Titanic!" and her chum enquired, "What's that about?" I held-in the laughter but they saw me shaking and I left...
+James Wheeler A girl wearing a Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon T-shirt told me the other day "yeah, I love them! I mean not the band, I've never listened to them, but I know they're a band and I love the design!"
+James Wheeler Classic! as well as the other replies, I cherish moments like that, they just don't happen enough. One that springs to mind is where Martin freeman asks Tim Lovejoy about his Ramones T-Shirt, Squirm? yes he did.
A friend of my daughter delighted in wearing a Slipknot T-Shirt and proclaimed herself a "massive fan". My missus was banging out a bit of Slipknot when she came to visit one day and when asked if she liked it (and knowing that the missus is a big Springsteen fan) replied "Yeah.Who is it, Bruce Springsteen?" Teenagers are twats! :D
The guy who crapped in a towel and threw it into the crowd at Reading Festival was The Dillinger Escape Plan vocalist in 2002. I was there, couldn't believe my eyes, especially when the audience threw it back on stage and he proceeded to open it up and smear it across his chest. Absolutely disgusting.
I shudder to ask... was it during Mike Patton's run as the vocalist? Because I wouldn't entirely be surprised if that was him. He's a musical savant, but he's a little off his rocker.
Bob Shatner Mike Patton was never their vocalist, he just co-wrote and guest appeared on an EP with them. But yes, I believe it was around that period so maybe his influence rubbed off on them. I read somewhere once that Mike Patton crapped inside a hairdryer in a hotel room, leaving it to a poor unsuspecting L7 who were due to stay in the same room after Faith No More. Grim.
Thomas Cox Thanks for the info man, and yeah it slipped my mind while typing earlier that he was only a guest vocalist (and a temporary stand-in for a short while too, I think?). Anyway your hairdryer story, is hilarious. Though probably not very funny to the next room guest. Hahaha.
Thomas Cox I seen them at T in the Park about the same sort of time and they done it then too. Before that though, the singer threw a can of Red Bull very far into the crowd. It hit a guy who wasn't watching on the head, he collapsed instantly and there was fair bit of blood. Stupid thing to do
@samanark Bare in mind this was probably broadcast in 1998 or something, before it was easy to get a band t-shirt without actually buying it at the gig itself.
That was the Dillinger Escape Plan. I was at Redding when it happened but didn't see it myself but heard the horror stories. I think it was a weird one off rather than a thing the lead singer does regularly though lol
I gotta say I feel kinda hurt by Sean about his dislike for us Americans (please don't think we're all like that, some of us are actually literate!), but I really do agree with him about the merchandising of animated films. :U
It was basically a troll. He apparently said 'I'm gonna prepare you all for what you're gonna be seeing for the rest of the day'. But yeah because most of the lineup was shitty emo/indie bands and Dillinger were getting a lot of stick, he just tried to annoy everyone there.
@MXCRT5 You realize you're making his point for him? Actors are everywhere. They blather about how hard it is. The truth is anyone who isn't nervous in front of a camera can act, which is why so many models, musicians, and comedians make the transition to acting so easily.
I agree with Sean that merchandising does often get out of control but when it comes to band shirts, I tend to disagree. I wear band shirts because I think it's a good way to support the band (in addition to buying their music), not because of some bizarre fantasy to get on stage and perform with them.
Sean is a total gem. Incidentally, I happen to agree with most things he hates!
Close your eyes, and it's like listening to a conversation between Michael Cain and Jimmy Carr.
There should be more programmes with both Sean Lock and Paul Merton

🤦🏻♂️.
I would love to go for a pint with Sean Lock xD
oh my god.that end clip was horrifying.i agree.
'I have an obligation to my talent' - im using that
Prince Edward - what happens when kids are alwasy encouraged and praised.
the band that crapped into the towel was dillinger escape plan
Goulburn NSW Australia...the big merino. Yay for us.
that commercial was LOOOONNNGGG. probably only had 1 every hour in those days...

1984Oranje Rock and Roll, man :/
The band who Sean Lock is talking about is The Dilinger Escape Plan, and the guy who shat onto a towel was Greg Puciato.
Is it pronounced poo-shatto or poo-shay-to?
A waltzer at the pyramids. "Ululate if you wanna go faster!"
Paul Merton! Wondered what he'd got up to.

Exactly what I was thinking! Though he never quite made it to any kind of "finale".
Prince William looks a lot like Edward did back then.
chris evans and actors are in room 101. i can't wait for the new top gear. well done bbc.
wookey hole aged cheddar. i got some today from the orange themed supermarket.
I gotta say I feel kinda hurt by Sean about his dislike for us Americans (please don't think we're all like that, some of us are actually literate!), but I really do agree with him about the merchandising of animated films. :U
If you're going to build a big thermometer, then BLOW MY SOCKS OFF.

Paul Merton's 'humour' is totally eclipsed by the legendary Sean Lock!
hahahaha 1:10 its gotta be 'G.G.Allin'
I know it's 8 years too late but it was Greg Puciato from Dillinger Escape Plan who shat in a bag & threw it into the crowd.
i'll suggest it
OMG! that bit at the end with Dexies Midnight Runners! WTH is that supposed to be about?
I'm genuinely wearing my Simpson's underpants right now
Pretty inappropriate.
The band were the dillinger escape plan
OK, did anybody else notice Paul McCartney at 12:00-12:02 on the right in line to the CockneyLand hod dog stand?
@DeathMetalRegulator Its the dillinger escape plan
spin us abdul!
@frickinradical i think sean mentioned it on 8/10 cats. and he remembered the band's name. i don't remember it myself.

Ah, back in the day when Room 101 was good - another show the BBC have ruined, they can't leave anything alone.
Everything was better in the old days: policemen were taller and every man wore a hat!
@frickinradical Nah, he'd be in a nappy, then.
I live in wookey hole and they add more tacky shit every year, loads of shitty fibreglass dinosaurs was the last addition
@frickinradical Imagine if he did it dressed as a muppet...
@noodles41 Paul Merton is a legend.
2003.
That's so weird, I have a baxters leaver! It's not very good though.
@xkoenigseggx He's probably never heard any of their stuff, and going on the name.
Or the behaviour of a toddler.
when was this?
@MXCRT5 cool story bro..
8 days a week?
I'm an actor... And trust me, it is difficult.
Did he go to a GG Allin Concert..? I wonder...
Foo Fighters 'really angry'?
@xkoenigseggx they were
He's right about actors. Somebody speaking another person's words. Nothing remarkable.
I thought he put gordon ramsay in?
@noodles41
That's a bit rude now, isn't it?
@R1Skinny p
fix your cap locks
Why'd they go and ruin dexys for me. :(

What the hell was Kevin Rowland thinking?!
the same as me no doubt lol
He looks a bit like Steve jobs.
Foo Fighters is a really angry band? WTF do you listen to, Sean, Air Supply?
Shit on my head or Phil Collins (the shit-head)?? I'll take the crappy cap please!
Boring format
This is a terrible format
