I remember watching this show with my father back in the 70’s. The Grave Yard Shortcut story from the first episode had my father hooked. I never heard him laugh harder than that. We watched this show, The Two Ronnies, and of course Monty Python all on PBS out of Boston. Such great memories. thanks for putting these up. Comedic Gold!

I used to watch this back in the 70's when I was a kid. I used to watch Dave Allen drink whiskey, Smoke cigarettes, as did my Dad, and tell jokes. All I wanted to do was drink whiskey & smoke - Because I didn't get the jokes. Now as an Adult when I watch Dave Allen, All I want to do is Drink whiskey, and smoke Cigarettes Because I GET the jokes... & .Because I'm drunk as Hell, and Dave is Funny as HELL & I left my god behind the couch.

Concerning Dave's story about HMS Friday, Wikipedia says "In fact, there has never been any Royal Navy ship of that name. It is unclear where the story originated; however, it seems to have gained in popularity after its recounting by comedian Dave Allen on his BBC television show Dave Allen at Large, Series 1, Episode 2, first broadcast 4 February 1971." Way to change the world, Dave.

Loved watching Dave Allen. Especially when he'd tell you those ghost stories and frighten himself! This was when TV was TV. We only had two or three channels but better entertainment. Now we've got more channels and Freeview. They are still charging TV liecience. What does freeview mean? FREE VIEWING. No liecience required.

I remember watching the vampire scene as a small child back in the 70s on t.v. Scared me. Now as man in his early 50s I've just watched it again for the first time on the internet. Not as scared as I was back then. Well maybe still a little scared.

My dad told me the proudest moment of his school education was a report he got (which he still has even tho he’s in his 60s) which said “He is intelligent, resourceful and innovative however he does routinely take the attitude of ‘if you can’t solve the problem today, go away and try again tomorrow’ “ The proudest moment of _my_ school education was a report which said “If he has learned anything after over 10 years in the education system, he sure has kept it to his f***ing self!”

Some classics here for sure. The joke about the bank in the west of Ireland cracked me up. I'm still trying to pronounce Richard the Third. Some of the sketches are deliberately silly which I take as a nod to slapstick. But the Butler theme shows off Dave Allen's incredible acting ability.

They wouldn't be allowed to drink or smoke on stage anymore. They've taken your freewill away. Like pubs. You use to be able to smoke in a pub. They banned that. So if you want a meal. Go to the restaurant, the chippy or Cafe. Not the pub. Only food should be sold in a pub are Chrisps chocolate or steak n kidney pie. And you shouldn't have reserved tables. It's not a restaurant. If you want coffee ☕ or 🍵 make it at home 🏡

Brings back fond memories of working for my uncle. Every once in a while we'd drive past a pub and he'd blurt out, making me jump in the process: 'There...another one selling pub food at restaurant prices!' I used to start laughing but he was deadly serious.

Allen may well have believed that that story about HMS _Friday_ was true, but in fact, it isn't. The Royal Navy has never had a ship by that name, but the story about HMS _Friday_ has been around for many years, and nobody knows how it arose. It is an urban legend. Allen forgot to mention that the Friday on which HMS _Friday_ allegedly sailed was a Friday the 13th.

Sadly, Dave Allen fell for that old urban legend about the HMS Friday. There was NEVER a Royal Navy ship named HMS Friday. Sounded good though, huh?
