    Just saw this on fretmeister's facebook feed....very shocked.

    Saw his stand-up show a few times years back (when I was at Uni, so pre '97)...and we actually watched the first couple of "Sean's Show" episodes on All4 the other week.

    I liked him very much. I wondered where he'd got to. RIP Sean

    Just saw this. :/ He was excellent in the early days of Buzzcocks.

    As that's younger than me - yes! 

    I remember him from Buzzcocks, his own show, popping up on cooking programmes doing vegetarian dishes and MrsTheWeary followed him on Twitter; he was in the small group of people she finds sufficiently entertaining to bother with. 

    Very sad news. 
    I’ll handle this Violet, you take your three hour break.

    Funny, entertaining guy. A real shame. No-one seems to be reporting what he died of... Apparently he went into hospital recently and then this sad news. Very odd.

    Liver trouble apparently. Such a shame, he was a lovely guy.

    Cirrhosis of the liver then a heart attack, it said in the Evening Standard.

    Very sad, I really liked his old C4 show and the early days of Buzzcocks.  Hadn't seen him on anything for years, although I gather he was on Coronation Street for a while.
