OMG Saturday Nights in the 70's kicked ass for a kid. SNL followed by Dave Allen followed by Monty Python. Pure Magic.

Dave Allen was decades ahead with his comedic insights.

On this anniversary of Dave's passing, we miss you mate. You changed so many lives and left a legacy we can never forget. Thank you!

He was the best. No- one has ever come close. He was the whole package. Brain the size of a planet, funniest man ever lived, all wrapped up in a man more handsome than most film stars. Never see his like again. We still love you Dave. ❤️

Dave Allen -GREATEST Comedian EVER. GOD Bless & R.I.P. Mr. Allen,Thanks.

Genius. I can watch time and time again

Whenever I need uplifting. Dave Allen is here for me. Love love love him

Today "pushing boundaries" in comedy does not even compare to the shock of Dave Allen in his time.

He got past standup, and created sitdown comedy. Way ahead of everyone.

Dave was so on point with the catholic religion and life. I loved him then and now.

So good that he had the confidence to be a sit-down comic.

How I miss that man. Used to sit with me da on a Saturday night and the both of us roaring with laughter.

Still so current, he's brilliant!

I'm Aussie, and it's guys like this that show me how much the Irish have influenced our culture. We are very much a British 'soup' so-to-speak, but the Irish definitely had a huge impact on our culture, and, as I said, it's guys like Allen who who just show how much the Irish impacted on the Australian accent and cultural mindset. And it remains to this day.

I've been looking for him for years on KZfaq. Finally, I've found him!

Absolutely love this man so much. What a character, what a talent love how he pushed the boundaries ❤❤😂😂

genius us often too much said for people but dave allen defines the word!!!

Nose knickers we are all wearing them now lol xx

Legend. Saw him in the West End as a kid with my Mother.

A creative genius. Funny and clean. I miss his style and wit. Irreplaceable.

its amazing how what he says is simply the truth and it just shows how stupid humanity is which is the best joke of all

Hahahaha! Amazing, handsome and funny guy. He was funny because most of the things he said were true with added humour.

Absolute brilliance.

Thank you, KZfaq for letting me discover Dave Allen and George Carlin.

Absolùtely fantastic

The best.

On lockdown here on paddy's day my ole one has me watching this ha some laugh . Dave ye legend gas

Can't believe my parents used to let me watch this when I wasn't even 10. Half of it went over my head at the time but it's still funny.

My dad's fav comedian, I grew up with ❤️👌

Undisputed comedian's comedian.

Love his show.

I watched his show 40 years ago

LEGEND 👍

Him and the Big Yin are comedy Gods .

Classic 😂😂😂😂❤️

I just love hearing real laughs in the audience rather than the generic clapping and some idiots screaming and whistling.

Amazing Talent ,best comedian, Can Never be replaced, always makes me Laugh. Great Loss .

OMG would love to see him and Robin Williams together

Legend 👌

Oh how i laughed then and again now the master

A belated genius.

Classic British humor at its finest.

I was looking for the Dave Allen gag about the sadist and the masochist but alas cannot find it.

Legend

love dave so handsome rip

Only the Irish...God Love'm...🍀🍀

He has a physique that would intimidiate-He is IRISH SCARY

👏👏Going to Saint PATRICK'S DAY 🇨🇮🇨🇮🍀🌀👉

Great Irishman and a wonderful talent.Strangely his da was a Black and Tan.

2:01 - a Minecraft reference, before Minecraft?

😅🤣😂❤️

I dont think this qualifies as stand up, its more sit down comedy than anything really.

4:40 - It wasn't an apple. People keep calling it an apple (possibly because the worlds for "apple" and "evil" are very similar in Latin), but nowhere does it say it was an apple. It's described as "the tree of knowledge of good and evil" (not "good and apples").

IF YOU WERE EVER DOWN AND NEEDED A GOOD BELLY LAUGH DAVE ALLEN WAS YOUR MAN. ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT -- LEGEND.-- l CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF HIS HUMOUR. THERE WAS ONLY ONE DAVE ALLEN AND I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO SEE HIM LIVE. R.I.P. MY FRIEND. YOU ARE SADLY MISSED. ---- PETER WADE. TWEED HEADS. N.S.W. AUSTRALIA.

The joke is what women want to listen to a man and do what he tells a woman to do ..

Every room in my hotel bedroom had a bible and they were all stolen -

Reckon George Carlin was a fan?

A few of those stools dont look sturdy

I am certainly not a ladies man . But I do know a good number of women as friends . Now the vast majority of these females are middle of the road , don't follow politics or anything else except for gossip , and keeping up on political correctness . The vast majority would give Dave hell for these mild jokes about differences of men and women . I know one who laughs her head off when she sees and listens to this type of comedy . And on top of that she is an economic socialist ! i think its those everyday females today who have got us men by the you know what , lol !

"Funny as fuck" As they say in the classics...

59 people with zero sense of humour... lol!

I now know why I'm an atheist 😂

Always dressed smartly unlike the bland, unisexless oxymorons of today .

His story telling was great though the punchlines were always a bit lame. But the hypnosis story is told with great expression. The unfortunate anti-gay joke was nicked from Bob Hope - should have been left there. Otherwise, an amazing man.

On this anniversary of Dave's passing, we miss you mate. You changed so many lives and left a legacy we can never forget. Thank you!
