    Good Bu t Dated

    I loved Dave Allen as a Kid , But 70's Humour hasnt really aged well. Theres too much of Daves early stuff, when his later stuff was much funnier. The early Dave Allen shows were really just jokes which may have been original at the time but now seem dated. I wish the DVD had more of his later work as this was much more observational about tha absurdities of life - All in all a missed oppurtunity and not paticulary well presented by the Beeb . They surely had so much more funnier stuff in the vault than whats on this DVD. Think I`ll watch Dave Allen On Life which looks a better bet

    well worth a look i promise you

    I saw this comedian in the early seventies and he had me roaring around the floor with his zany and humerous stories on roman cathicolisms sex and death . watching this brought it all back to me ? I really enjoyed watching some of his best bits again. He was one of the first in alternative humour. A real genius of this kind of comedy storytelling .

    Lots of Laughs

    Classic Dave Allen, some of the scetches look a little dated now, but the laughs are still as good as they always were.

    Sorely missed friend

    This is a nice complication of sketches from over the years - in Dave Allen's typical style, brings back fond memories.
