Dave : our irreplaceable genius , still bringing tears to our eyes and making bad days better.

[@pompevvik2961]

His explanation of time on a watch is just wonderful

[@ashesgaming841]

How on earth could people dislike Dave Allen ? He's the best comedian ever ! May he rest in peace

[@ShelvesBookShelves]

This is my very first comment on KZbin. But I felt inclined to say thank you for putting the video on. I love Dave Allen and have giggled my socks off watching this. It takes me back in time and the jokes stand the test of time.

[@69Phuket]

Bethan...comment more often.. It's good to get it off our Chests!

[@jacksoncutts3319]

I doubt there will ever be another quite like him. Tremendously witty and with flawless delivery.

[@normanmckenzie3106]

He has to be the best stand up comedian who ever lived

[@simonlunt353]

Dave Allan is one of the best you can Watch him again and again and you still fall out of your seat 🤣🤣 l bet he is making them laugh up in heaven simple the best 👏👏

[@TheTanthius]

One of the best stand up comedians of all time. Quick, witty beyond comparison and his timing perfect!! I can watch Dave Allen over and over again and not get bored. Brilliant.

[@gbsailing9436]

In truth, he delivered most of his material sitting down...See: "Dave Allan at large..."

[@edwardyoung1762]

An absolute amazing man in all respects; life he knew. Love him.

[@chriswallis1534]

I remember when it was on tv I was about 13/14 at the time instantly became one of my favourite comedians absolute genius 😊👌🏻👍🏻

[@leereadman9940]

how in god's name did any of us learnt to tell the time lmao

[@blackdragonstory1122]

ehehe I was just wondering that myself.

[@michaelgrace1298]

I'm spot on at telling the time, but it wasn't from my teachers

[@colleenjanehepburn3808]

And to make it worse, we learnt in Roman Numerals!!

[@benconway9010]

That's wat Dave Allen said

[@ruthcollins2841]

My Dad!

[@Fcutdlady]

I once farted in a lift. It wasn't a planed thing. If I could've stopped it I would've. Well said about the choclate by check outs in the supermarket. That's not a thing now thankfully

[@dhog41]

He sounds like my dad teaching the time like that. Haha. My dad used to get so frustrated explaining things to us kids....I used to watch Dave Allen with him and my grandad all the time when I was a kid. Miss those days....

[@nigozeroichi2501]

Thank god he's not my grandfather, or I'd have been no better at telling time than how they tried teaching me in school, I have A.D.D. my thought and learning process is not the same as others couple that with the stupid way my school decided to teach how to tell time, I had no Idea how after a whole semester (they did it bit by bit over a semester) my grandfather was so angry when he asked me what time it was and couldn't tell him, not at me thankfully but at my parents and the school, he taught me how to tell time in ten minutes,

[@BloobleBonker]

God please send this man back to us

[@PanzerMafia]

Watching this was a bad thing to do at work... Although I got my colleagues also to laugh :D

[@69Phuket]

Gulags R Us ;)

[@michaeljohnfoster2316]

Thanks for posting this , love this man.

[@leewallace7192]

The human race is strange! May your God go with you! Xx

[@leighkelly2161]

I laughed til I cried when I first saw the time sketch and I'm still laughing now. He was also the first comedian I saw live. Absolute genius 😄

[@69Phuket]

Farts are particles of Shit blowin' in the air....Just thought i'd let you know that! ;p

[@rickiedd2020]

comic timing was genius

[@MrAsmaay]

Master piece

[@sbsb4995]

The best

[@themega3023]

There will never be another.. Murphy, Carlin, Pryor.... Dave Allen is still my favorite.

[@adamwallwork6120]

Just noticed Dave is missing one finger 😯

[@uzurpon]

The tip of his left index finger. He never spoke about how or when he lost it. Must have happened before he appeared on TV.

[@claresherman2278]

Uzurpon Actually, making up stories about how he lost it was one of his main sources of material!

[@uzurpon]

Clare Sherman. You're so right. Some funny and weird stories :)

[@RatPfink66]

@@uzurpon It got caught in a "machine cog," per Wikipedia.

[@uzurpon]

@RatPfink66 Aah ok. Thx for the ifo :)

[@TheAardvaak]

comedy gold. unbeatable....

[@nicoledion5898]

The best ever :) 💕💗

[@dulmin_]

2:08 Wonder how then it'll look like 😄😄😄😅

[@Itza]

I think that might have been a repeat if it was shown '93/'94. My parents used to watch Dave Allen all the time and I remember seeing this one, though I've forgotten the year. I left home in '91 and didn't have the opportunity to watch Dave Allen with my husband.

[@trudies4791]

My friend’s dad used to keep the time on the clock at 10 minutes fast. If anyone tried to adjust it, he would get upset because he said he wouldn’t be able to tell what time it was. Lol.

[@Wotdermatter]

What happened to the picture?

[@EdelweisSusie]

Oh that mullet!

[@mikelee8937]

Have to admit, and maybe I wasn't the sharpest tool in the drawer, I always was left a bit puzzled by second vs second hand, LOL

[@9_in_the_afternoon]

+Mike Lee I was always confused about a day being 24 hours long, made up of a 12 hour day and a 12 hour night :'D
