I keep forgetting to press like on these Dave Allen sketches, so just to show my love for the man, I love all of them. There, I don't have to worry if I miss some. I have said before, this man is probably the first comedian to make me laugh at him and at myself. Most of his comedy I relate to and that honestly brings back memories of my younger and recent years that I can now laugh at. Wish you were still with us old chum. 👍🏻🇦🇺😢 and 🤣🤣.
The best Comedian ever! I laugh so much sometimes at his very true humor that I in pain on my chest because I laughing so hard. Such loss to the world.. times like now in 2020 we need his humor.
Dave Allen - the greatest ever, think he needs recognition in this day because boy do we really need to see the truth and laugh about it now more than ever. If someone in the producing world has any sense they will bring back a series on showing him from his young years right through - but not a 1 hr programme but a good showing - someone make it happen!
Dave was one of a kind. In some ways he was Ireland's answer to Billy Connolly, except for a lot less swearing. He'll always be funny, as his gags are timeless
@@paulreeves7249 Just because you're too conservative to see beyond the swearing doesn't mean he isn't funny. He's old fashioned in the sense the political correctness never stopped him from taking the mickey out of any group
@@aminemaia9878 He did tour Australia occasionally. He was likely in Canberra as part of an Australian tour. I imagine that he'd have a lot of material to work with in Australia's federal capital, plenty to poke fun at, and as an Australian or Irish descent, I would have happily cheered him on while he did so
He the Funniest comedian off all time , nobody have came close to him since and i have seen alot, and his witt was out off this world , my biggest regret in life is that i never went to see him live ,,,RIP
Brilliant! Still one of the funniest stand up commedians ever!. Still relevent today and a good 'go to' if you need a laugh!. RIP Dave, truly missed!. Nuff said!.
I'm watching this in my office and my sides are aching!! I saw Dave Allen live once, back in May 1991. The funniest comedy concert I have ever been to, and magnitudes funnier than any current comedian on the circuit today. God, I miss him!
Awesome to be laughing at this so many years later. Ah the wonders of technology. Dave Allen will still be making people laugh in 100 years. I wonder what he would have thought about that.
A superb comedian, able to teach anyone how to do it, apart from maybe Ken Dodd. Did you notice though, at 06:08 during the 'applause' for the bungi jumping joke, the scene changed to a rear view of the auditorium while Dave was taking a sip of whiskey and there wasn't one bit of movement from the audience!
none of todays so called comedians and their new age comedy styles can match his comedic genius. His kind of jokes, his clean comedy, his rapport with the audience and his take on everday life and make it hilarious
@oldworms Agreed! He makes me laugh so much. Ok. so I'm sitting on my own, in the dark, with the computer and laughing my head off OUT LOUD!!!!!!!! LOVE Dave Allen!!
"You climb to the top of a tower, tie a rubber rope around your feet and dive off." Written down, it's just a statement. Get Dave Allen to say it and it's comedy gold.
If he was alive today the material he would have, but of course he might have retired by then. He was one of a kind, I miss him. May your God go with you Dave.
Landscape gardeners, slimming clubs, insurance plans, takeaway menus, skip hire.... What he said about avalanches of shit coming through the letterbox has only become truer over time.
total class, very funny indeed, when he was about to die he asked that his videos wouldnt be re run on tv , why, because he wanted new comedians to make some money, what a star, this is true....great bloke !!! thanks Dave !!!
David Allen stands on his own. One of the best comedians ever. Absolutely brilliant 👏
My husband introduced me to Dave Allen and Omg I have been binge watching him. He has helped me laugh through a tough time x
Absolute comedy legend and genius, nobody will ever touch him.

Dave's observational style of comedy is mind numbingly funny. One of the greatest comedians of all time.
My all time favourite comedian, a hilarious view on life and impeccable timing and delivery, miss you dave. RIP
I came back from visiting my brother in spain when I heard dave allen had died and I was shocked....

No Billy Connelly is a rubbish comic who's only talent is being utterly foul mouthed.
Dave Allen is the King of Comedy!
I don't know why but he was in Canberra Australia 🇦🇺 in 1973 where he had a TV show. He helped me learn English.

@@Mechknight73 Nope, no politics. But he did ring our house and spoke to me and my Mum. She had been to school with him.

Holiday brochures, that's a thing of the past.
Love Dave Allen 💕💕💕 Timeless!
Could you imagine sitting next to him on a plane...brilliant
"I saw it on my toe!!" BRILLIANT!!!

Classic !! It's so true ! That's what makes it so funny ! Even today , he's still my favorite comedian ! I was laughing out loud all throughout this !
You are missed Dave Allen.
none of todays so called comedians and their new age comedy styles can match his comedic genius. His kind of jokes, his clean comedy, his rapport with the audience and his take on everday life and make it hilarious
There out there. You just gotta look for them.
The original and best stand-up act and very very funny
An epic story teller, awesome!
@oldworms Agreed! He makes me laugh so much. Ok. so I'm sitting on my own, in the dark, with the computer and laughing my head off OUT LOUD!!!!!!!! LOVE Dave Allen!!
Brilliant comedian still find him funny especially with the rubbish they call comedy today.
"You climb to the top of a tower, tie a rubber rope around your feet and dive off."
Written down, it's just a statement. Get Dave Allen to say it and it's comedy gold.
So true...his delivery was 50% of his success..of course the other 50% was his script
The old ones are the best.
It doesn't get much better than Dave . Sadly missed
Even today i am still chuckling away from this.
God, the Irish are so on the money with their humour, pure class, dry and so , so slick
Love the impression at the beginning of the brochures dropping through the letterbox. Classic.
I have happy memories of watching my dad laughing so much it would make me laugh
"Fifty years in a week, that was quick wasn't it?" simply clever.
So great, its almost like he's talking to you personally, funniest man ever!
OMG, he had me in tears at the water skiing part! XD
Micheal mackintyre’s material 20 years later
Pure genius no one can surpass his stand up observations of that era
Oh I wasn't expecting that at he end. I was left laughing for ages.
a masterclass in comedy

Ko l ko
Thank you.
He was the one and only.
Fantastic funny man......no one better at telling a story
Too true Sheamus316 , such a clever man, I miss his stand up.
Pure genius of stand up comedy.
My favourite ever stand up brilliant
If he was alive today the material he would have, but of course he might have retired by then. He was one of a kind, I miss him. May your God go with you Dave.
Landscape gardeners, slimming clubs, insurance plans, takeaway menus, skip hire.... What he said about avalanches of shit coming through the letterbox has only become truer over time.
Comedy Genius. I remember watching him as a kid .Always hilarious 😁
One of the best comedians ever 😅😂so funny
one or 2 sketches of D.A. each day ... and everything goes better !
"my anus is doing a filter job for the Mediterranean!" lost it there
One of a kind....again, we thank you.
so funny now im 51 !!!! when i was a kid it was over my head lol
I dearly remember him portraying pope Paul the VIth on waterskis! He was the best
And dancing on the steps as Pope, with the others behind him, BBC in the real days of comedy
My feeling exactly about bungee jumping. No power on earth could make me do that. And it’s supposed to be fun?
Yes...the part about meeting your shit on the way down on your way up...or whatever - priceless.
I'm laughing already even when I know what's coming for the 100th time!
U
Sign of a great comedian.
He is so good....Happy holiday!
Just brilliant, hilarious 😂
Dave Allen knows exactly what subjects to make fun of ! 👍
He is brilliant - not sure if he is still alive ,will have to Google this .
