It may have been confirmed elsewhere, but... I saw Sean Lock in stand-up in late 2007. When asked if he'd be bringing back 15 Storeys for a third series, he said "No, I think that stage of my life has gone", or words to that effect. Gram123 (talk) 16:11, 4 January 2008 (UTC) Reply

Reception

[edit ]

{{cleanup|section|date=April 2011}}

"It should not take more than six minutes of your time to realise that this is the best comedy on television"

– The Sunday Times

"Lock's off-the-beaten-track sitcom is inadequate preparation for the live experience. On television Lock is bleak to the point of alienation."

– Bruce Dessau in the London Evening Standard , 19 December 2002 .

"The straight acting, the rawness of the dialogue and arid production values make this resemble a Beckett play as filmed by Krzysztof Kieslowski. Minimal but beautifully constructed plots involve accidents at the local swimming baths and the loss of a sofa. On paper, 15 Storeys High is not remotely funny, but onscreen it has a bittersweet allure."

– Bruce Dessau in the London Evening Standard , 2 January 2004

"Many of the most successful sitcoms, such as Steptoe and Son , Fawlty Towers and Porridge , have featured characters who, for one reason or another, are unable to escape from each other. While no one would suggest that 15 Storeys High is in that league, it possesses an appealingly dark sense of the absurd..."

– James Rampton in The Independent , 26 February 2004 .

"extraordinarily well-written comedy with plot strands and incidental characters worthy of vintage Seinfeld."

The Times

"itches a scratch"

From the synopsis for series 1 episode 2: "Errol finally itches a scratch he needed to itch". Huh? I'm going to change this to "scratches an itch", which I assume must be the intended meaning. If this is an in-joke, please explain. GrindtXX (talk) 13:52, 25 August 2021 (UTC) Reply
