    There are very few foreignors that can make Australians laugh at themselves. Dave Allen is one of them. I am an Aussie and I am a Christian. Like others, I watched it with my parents. I still reckon he's one of the best comedians that ever lived. He was a true story-teller. Good times indeed.

    Brilliant ... I'm Australian and LOVE this and have always loved Dave Allen -- I was allowed to watch this when I was a kid -- my dad would let me sneak into the living room and watch it when I was supposed to be in bed -- I did not get half the jokes back then but still laughed my head off when my dad laughed :-) :-) -- good times :-)

    Bloody true though. Im a white Australian. Blackfella friends of mine will give ya anything. Its true. I gave my mate a jacket. I was pretty proud of myself for giving it. . And then he didn’t have it. I asked him and he said he gave it away to another bloke. My friend had almost forgotten the jacket, lol ! It stung- because of my whitefella ways, i felt betrayed. But another part of me got it and knew id like to have what ethos that he has. And akso, black lady came visiting with a white friend of mine. They’d traveled hundreds of kilometres. The black lady didn’t even know me. But straight away she said: “Can i go to sleep?”. And she went to my bed. Cause thats how THEY treat people. What an easier way to live. Can you imagine just walking in to an average white persons place and asking to go to bed? You wouldn’t do it. So much easier way to be. So Dave got that all 100% -right.
