Dave Allen

He was the best ever! Nobody since can compare. Handsome, smart, intelligent and super funny.

He was part of the reason I quit smoking. I remembered him saying he was not prepared to pay to kill himself by smoking so he quit. I did the same.

I loved him too! Many years ago, went to the Haymarket with my late husband to see his live show, he was brilliant!

Loved him!

There was something gentle about his humour - never cruel.

Yes I liked him too.
Funny and so good to look at

My gran loved him.

Handsome and witty - I often wondered how he lost one tiger - I could read it up online, I suppose.

My husband worked with him on Dave Allen's one man show at the Haymarket. Behind the stage every evening they had a sweepstake for what time the show would finish. Dave Allen knew this and used to come off stage asking who'd won each night. It could vary 10 - 15 minutes depending on his audience!
We had a lovely engagement gift from him.
So funny in real life.

Correction - ‘I told you I was ill.’

loopyloo

And Spike Milligan too. So funny!

He was daft as a brush but hilarious.
Am not sure if is t true but is said the epitaph on his gravestone is ‘I told you I was I’ll.’

Dave Allen was a favourite of ours, we remember him as a dishy young man on a bar stool with his glass of whiskey but he was equally good as he got older. Loved his monologues and his irreverent sketches about Catholicism.
Can’t think of anyone like that today.

And Spike Milligan too. So funny!

I loved Dave Allen. Very handsome as well.

Remember him well with his good looks Irish wit and whiskey glass when he picked it up you see he had lost the tip off a finger.

Good night and may your God go with you was his sign off.

I loved Dave Allen. Funny and handsome with a lovely Irish lilt.

I loved his skits on the Church! I used to watch him with my dad. Good memories.
