路A bit late PSA I guess - comedian Sean Lock died last week, 58 years old.
A few years ago I happened to stumble across the British TV genre of panel shows where a bunch of comedians and perhaps one or two b-list celebs sit down and play a silly parlour game, most often without any real prizes, the focus being on the interaction between the contestants. Since then my girlfriend and I have seen a lot of these programmes.
Sean Lock was a regular on a couple of the shows and while I guess that a lot of Brits know him from elsewhere this is where I knew him from.
He always reminded me a lot of my dad who passed sixteen years ago and I remember thinking that he would have loved watching him and I could completely see them drink a few pints together.
He had caught skin cancer as a young man and recovered and in the end it was lung cancer that got him.
I have been surprisingly saddened by his passing. It's like losing a favourite uncle 馃檨
