Star of cult noughties MTV show, Dirty Sanchez, Mike Locke aka Pancho, has died. The 47-year-old was born in Neath and found fame on the stunt and prank television show alongside Matthew Pritchard, Lee Dainton and Dan Joyce.
A former stuntman and skateboarder, in the past decade he’d found success with another cool, cult Welsh brand as backer of the San Portablo clothing brand, alongside his friend and founder, Nigel Hunt.
The sad news of his passing came via San Portablo’s Instagram on Friday morning, November 6, where they paid tribute to “an absolute Welsh treasure” and “all round Goodfella” who “lit up the world with his charm.” More on tributes to Pancho here.
