    Hi Real Adogg. I live in Ireland, and Dave Allen was BANNED here, despite him being a huge Irish star. His stories at the end of his shows were hilarious. We loved him when we were kids, and when we moved to England for a few years, we got to watch him on TV!!! What a thrill. Massive talent and I'm glad you like him. :)

Allen, Goodwin (we're having a good time aren't we..aaaahh!), Manning, Davidson, Reid (turn it in), Carson (it's the way I tell'em), J.Jones, Chubby ("Good evening! My wife's got two cunts and I'm one of them."), Boardman (Fokker joke), all contributed to the wicked, twisted sense of humour I've got now!!

      I used to work as a funeral directors assistant, where we would wash, dress and prepare our clients for their big day. Quick sidenote - everyone's always buried in their sunday finest, so the Zombie apocalypse will be a formal event. Anyway we'd started work on a new client, a woman in her 30's, when Doc (what I called the funeral director as he reminded me of a Uni professor I had) had to step out to make a phone call; he left me to carry on. 10 minutes later he comes back, says 'how you getting on Ewan?' 'Fine, no worries, but I have got a question about her.' I said 'why has got a prawn between her legs'. He said 'What?' Why has she got a prawn between her legs? He had a look and said 'Ewan, that's not a prawn!' I said'
      'Are you sure? It tastes like one!'
      A guy goes in to a Chinese restaurant, orders a bowl of noodles, eats half and skips out on the bill. The manager's like Bastard he no pay for noodle, picks up a cleaver and goes after the guy. He follows him down the road and in to a brothel and eventually finds the guy, who's now performing oral sex on a prostitute. Manager says 'Oi bastard, you order noodles, why you no pay for noodle?' The guy turns to him, wipes his face and says 'I didn't pay for the noodles, because I found a hair in them'. The manager's like 'What, you no pay for noodle cause you found hair in them and now you're eating hairy, fuckin' pussy!?!?'
      and the guy replies 'yeah, and if I find a noodle in there, she's not getting paid either!?!

    Dave Allen was an Irish storytelling comedian! He kept his working class Dublin roots, his style was Irish blarney! I believe he was recommended to the BBC by Dorothy Squires who recognised his raw talent! He would land a legendary series called Dave Allen at Large with an iconic theme tune! Though raised a Catholic he would quickly turn against the church and would forever send up the Pope, which got him into trouble! He famously ended his program after the final sketch with the words - goodnight and may your God go with you! He easily takes his place among Britain's greatest ever talents!

      Yes , but I think a few of Dave's jokes " went through to the keeper " so to speak , with this black guy !! He didn't smile or laugh in some , and I don't think he quite understood the jokes , or it might've been Dave's accent too !! But I was laughing my arse off , because as an Aussie it brought back fond family memories of watching Dave Allen , every week !! 😂😂👏👏🇦🇺❤️

      @@juliecook6057 I definitely think he didn't get the priest doing the ironing and flicking water on it - he's probably never done any ironing or if he did, used a modern steam iron. I'm SO glad I was born and grew up when I did, such brilliant comedy, music and tv - and no 'political correctness'

    Elated and touched that you found this GEM of A MAN, AND APPRECIATE HIS TALENT. In his later years , with greying hair, he perfectly describes the aging process in the most comical and true-to -life way. He's brought cheer to millions in his time. He had a knack for story -telling and spinning a yarn that goes back to ancient Irish tradition. R.I.P. Dave.

    i grew up watching dave in the 70s and 80s when his tv show was a regular on British tv, no matter what subject he tackled or poked fun at he always did it with style and without derision, almost 50yrs later and his comedy is still brilliant and relevant and hardly a swear word used, he may have been Southern Irish but we Brits considered him a national treasure

    What a joy to see the late great Dave Allen ,he was a huge presence in my youth in the UK He gently took apart some of the absurdities of religion. As a Catholic it was risky in those days to critic the church Now of course we have seen some of the bad things hidden from us before. He was a funny but also brave man of his time

    So glad you've found Dave Allen, surely the greatest 'stand-up' ever. OK, so he was always perched on a bar stool, with a glass of whiskey to hand, but the concept is stand-up and he was the master, hardly a comedian who can hold a candle to him decades on.

    He used to do quire a lot of jokes on religion, because of his Irish upbringing, but not exclusively so. He also did a nice turn in horror stories with a humerus twist at the end, modern life, travel and the like. There is a piece called Telling the time which is quite good. In the 60s in black and white, he'd have a cigarette with his drink as he spun his stories, but he dropped that in the 70s. He was a great entertainer.

    Dave Allen was on Swedish television in the mid seventies when i was a teenager. I loved his religious jokes, growing up in the pentecostal church but not really believing in god myself. My father used to wonder what was so funny, luckily he did'nt understand English. The sixties and seventies was a great time for comedy. You should also check out Tommy Cooper, another great comedian from the same era, but very different. Mel Brooks and Monty Python were also great... ...and Mad magazine... ...and...
