found this by accident, I haven't laughed like this for years! Actually crying with laughter! My mum loved Dave Allen it takes me back to happier times, thank you for the comedy, in this crazy world we so need it! May your God go with you xx🙏🙏

Oops all the rich snobby jealous celebrities that have to force a smile, then when Ken got talking they realised they didn't have to.

Truly OG I watched Dave when I was 10 around 1977 awesome not many of us left

Interesting interview lads !!! Great listen with total honesty

What a difference he was from those pathetic men who sit opposite their girlfriend in a coffee shop stewing over their smartphone, while the girl looks at everyone so confused as to why she chose a man with giant balls who can't talk😂

He was a real icon, and his humour meant a lot to me and my friends. When I got to see him on stage in about 2010, the first couple of hours were wonderful. After that though the laughs were fewer, and after another couple of hours there was a desperate tone in his voice, and the spaces were longer. People were leaving before the end, as I did. In my case it was to be able to get home, but it was also not to see the show fizzle out. Bless his heart: this documentary shows how much more he was.

He's great but he needs a nose spray before he goes on stage.

The "chair person/ sperm donor of either sex" sketch just makes me think of how he was making jokes about sexual equality going to insane levels, and how these days, his jokes are actual reality.

Beautiful to see Ken with his dogs ❤

The comedy genius! Nobody compares.

Seen Ken at Sunderland he started at 7 and went off at 12

fantastic man

REspect the best that i have seen

Ken was always so immaculately dressed. Compliments to his tailor.

Rats can laugh, and my dog smiler too ,

Saw him perform live at our local Theatre and had one of the best nights ever. He was so funny.

80-year-old Brummie saw him twice live. over Christmas 2024 he was on telly for a 5-star performance by a comic genius followed by Sir Lenny Henry talk about chalk and cheese knighthood given wrong again

Trust a Brit to choose the most detested animal as a mascot for this kids channel 😂😂

Top lad!!

A talented and quick witted comedian who could do a routine for hours without a single repeat of jokes.

What wonderful entertainment. Back in the 70's I went to Ken's show in Blackpool I was about 16 and it was fantastic.

The Man was a genius. To talk about religion in those days and make people laugh 😂. Vale Dave you made my earlier life better for watching you.

a master of his trade and from what I have read about Ken, a really nice bloke. There will never be another Doddy

I LOVE BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY SO MUCH

went to see him in poole one time , he ran 3 hours over . my dad was phoning the police to see if we had got into a crash !

Half that audience is dead now

I havent watched Dave Allen for a long time but tonight I had a great belly laugh about the absurdity of being human. Such great humour, such a great observer of us mere mortals. An amazing story teller, he had the audience in his hands. Thank you for reminding me about the laughs I had when Dad and I watched you in the 70s and 80s. RIP Dave and may you be with your god.

Dave Allen at Large, Benny Hill, Monty Python, The Goodies..... The list goes on and on. I grew up on these shows and love them all.

So unfunny.

My favourite comedian this is how its done slapstick comedy love to Ken dodd. ❤xx

Qq

We just dont get shows like this anymore unfortunately these great men like sir ken dodd will never be seen again this eorld as changed for the worst

Don't know if it's already been said, but. Dave would sometimes tell of how he lost his finger. I don't know how many variations, I think there were at least five stories, all totally different, and all probably nothing like the real reason. Magic man, sadly missed.

This is such dad humour 😂 so silly, I love it, tickles me

Maybe one of the few people to deserve a knighthood, pity it took so long.

Dave was simply the best

Fascinating interview. Doddy was always inclined to entertain in interviews (do jokes rather than talk about himself), but this is one where he really opens up about why he does it and how he does it.

He is awesome. Watching again

Unique, and much missed.

He had massive energy and talent. Miss him so much.

Ken won of my favourite com/singer of all time

Whomever this interviewer was Thank You We had one in Australia who fell and got brain damage who spoke to Freddie l I ke dirt Maybe karma is real Again Thank you Lovely seeing this beautiful person relaxed for an interview Rare ❤

The interviewer was ok Freddie was relaxed and comfortable He's a sight to behold What a lovely gorgeous human being He's a delight and a joy to witness and happy to see him relaxed with a total stranger Thanks to that it was a nice interview Very impressed with the interviewer Lovely way to approach Supernova ❤

Dave Allen was kicked out of the Catholic Church because of his religous jokes ,good on him the churches an F religion are a joke

Saw Ken in Blackpool in the summer 92 pissed myself for 2 hours best night ever

Bloody kids throwing things around! Sounds like they’d love a Saturday at the cinema.

Ive been really poorly for 15 days following a drug reaction. Thought my time had come. This has made me feel so much better, i have laughed myself better. Boots had me flaked out. Dear old Doddy , he is hilarious. Ill be singing the Road to Mandalay for weeks now. My GETTING BETTER anthem.

I have watched this programme a few times and I cry every time.

Yes

Doddy created Masonic The Hedgehog. Gypsies can be two-faced Rosie Lea!
