I first experienced Dave and his brilliant humor back in the early 70's as a teenager in Canada and Loved his comedy then. Now as an older adult, returning to his humor and wit has helped me with dealing with the occasional depression that accompanies daily living. I'm very grateful for that relief😁

Agreed. I have a friend in America and he had never heard of him. I suggested that he looked online at him. He is hooked. Another one which American's have not heard of is a comedy called Red Dwarf. There is now an appreciation group called Dwarfers. It is hilarious. I constantly watch both of these after a rough day.

Agreed he always was a comedic genius, fantastic actor as well. I was born in 1975 and can vaguely remember his early shows,however I was lucky enough to watch him throughout the eighties, nineties up until his death RIP. My mum introduced me to Dave, she was forever watching him on tv, apparently when he was younger he looked a lot like her ex boyfriend.

Growing up in the 70’s there was many comedy shows or sitcoms about which you thought were brilliant. If watched now there’s not that many you could really say you still find funny. But Dave Allen to me was different, he has never aged, as in what he talks about or his sketches he did have never dated. His talks to his audience on life and everyday problems, are still happening in today’s world.

The older he got the funnier he was. He NEVER fails to make me laugh even if i have seen it before!Everybody says I should be a comedian and my sense of humour is very dry like Dave Allen. Strangly enough I hate most comedians because they come across as loud mouthed attention seekers. Comedians that lots of people think are hilarious really irritate me. They try too hard and swear too much. Dave Allen swears just enough to emphasise his frustration about whatever subject he is talking about. It's so sad that he didn't live longer and continue to mock today's society. I may have to do it for him! THIS MAN WAS SENSATIONAL AND MADE IT LOOK EFFORTLESS.
