Sean Lock, greatly missed

He was a British comedian who died in 2021 at the age of 58 following a battle with cancer and who spoke out against both David Walliams and Russell Brand in the years before several allegations against them came to light. One can but wonder at the fact that they're still righteous people amongst us. Let us treasure them greatly each time when the opportunity arises.

Just remember that Sean Lock said once about Brand: "Probably the reason I hate him so much is that I am a dad, and I have this fear that one day my daughters will bring something like that home. And he will come in and go so, 'Oh such pleasure to be in your charming abode...'"

Five years earlier, he had reacted in horror to a joke made by Walliams following the death of Michael Jackson, who had admitted to sharing his bed with children. Walliams said: "Have you heard Michael Jackson is dead." When Sean's great friend and fellow comedian Jimmy Carr said yes, the Little Britain star joked: "If it is wrong to share your bed with 13-year-old boys then lock me up and throw away the key." Some audience members laughed, but Sean didn't join in, being seen in a clip looking blankly ahead during the routine, rather than at Walliams.
