The Dave Allen Show (Carlton) - 1993

[@ythinder]

His observational humour was brilliant, he was one of the few comedians that you could truly class as funny, the fact that he was a bit near the knuckle at times only made me love him more!! His comedy will live on forever.

Thanks to all those disciples sharing the one and only Dave Allen. I absolutely loved him. Totally under-appreciated in his lifetime. He was a genius.

I grew up on Dave Allen and Monty Python on PBS, and Bugs Bunny Saturday morning. The sources of my sense of humor that has carried me through life.

Dave just takes you on these wondrous little journeys into everyday life.....I miss him.

Love me some Dave Allen - the World is so boring w/o him & comedians like him

[@pikemeredith5604]

Don't know how one person could stand there for 2 hours & continue to tell jokes & anecdotes like Dave Allen. He rehearsed his act extremely well & never missed a beat. When u really listen to him all of the things he talks about are very true. He knew what he was talking about. He made a lot of everyday situations seem so funny yet so logical. Yes, I believe he quit smoking but kept on drinking. Sadly though he still left us at 69 from arrhythmia. I hope if there is a god he saw Dave coming & accepted him after all those religious skits he did. Hopefully god has a sense of humour.

The "teaching about time" routine literally made me roll on the floor laughing!

[@scathatch]

was hilarious. Dave Allen is a comic goldmine.

[@trotterbruno]

great upload. love the bit about car horns . can watch that section time and time again ,and still belly laugh, very funny the way he acts it out.

[@rg2265]

Just imagine what he would have to say about smartphones. Probably would be the best jokes ever.

[@mikemartin2957]

Yes , he would have had a lot of fun with the observations & personal experiences with smartphones , call center's, selfies,& the habits ALL Mobile phone users have. In this 1993 season of shows iam sure he explains about an experience he has with a ' talking car' and the frustrations he has with it! Dave Allen is very much missed comedian who's shows on both BBC in the 70s & 80s & later on ITV will never in my opinion date or go ' out of fashion'!

[@pmajudge]

🤣🤣🤣😂😂!!!! R.I.P. TO ONE OF THE GREATEST EVER!!! DAVE ALLEN . MISSED DEARLY . FROM U.K. (2024).

[@sonadagothalus2]

Very interesting that this version was never shown on Anglia, if you look his hair style changes through (11:25 trapped nerve to smoker gag) and this is the same style as episode 7. I'm not sure what was in the episode 1 that was broadcast on Anglia that was deemed unacceptable and replaced or vice versa with Carlton but there are certain 10 minutes of different footage between both shows that neither region aired in total
