Sean Lock stars in a surreal comedy masterpiece set in a heavily-bugged London tower block

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4, these classic cult comedies sparked a critically-acclaimed BBC TV show that ran for two series between 2002 and 2003. Starring the much-missed Sean Lock, these tower block tales revolve around a sardonic misanthrope who, despite his best efforts, can’t seem to keep the world at bay. Holed up in his flat in Elderberry House, he’s constantly bothered by friends, neighbours and confused tourists – so he hides microphones all around the block to listen in to the other residents…

In 15 Minutes of Misery, people persist in seeking Sean out, but fortunately, his plumber Hot Bob has fixed him up with a listening device called the Bugger King (‘nothing to do with meat or sex’). Aided by tech, he happily eavesdrops on the folk around him – from Honest Alf, whose penchant for song lyrics keeps getting him into hot water with the PRS, to Nazi Cyril, Nigel the Hippie, and some Robin Hood-style bank robbers…

15 Storeys High – Crouched on his lonely perch like a smug hermit, Sean continues to sit tight in his tower block flat. With the help of his video entryphone, the Alienate 9000, he can hide in the comfort of his own home – until his mate Stuart comes round, armed with a lava lamp and wanting a place to stay. It’s time for Sean to get himself a flatmate…

Created by and starring Sean Lock, both series feature an outstanding cast, including Hattie Hayridge, Kevin Eldon, Felix Dexter, Jenny Eclair and Peter Serafinowicz.
