Great comedian. Just got the memory of him propped on his stool with a glass of whiskey in his hand.

RIP :(

Cheers

Growing up in a catholic family and being the worlds worst Altar boy on account of I never bothered to find out what was actualy happening at any point during a service, i.e. just do what the kid next to you is doing and get out as quick as possible. However after spectacularly reducing one church service given by visiting priest to a total farce when I was the only alter boy to turn up, my services were no longer required. Dave Allen would have been proud. Hope the beeb now puts his shows on again. A crime they haven`t before.
All I can say is....

RIP Dave - I hope the big man`s got a GSOH. ;)

He`s probably got an audience, glass of whisky, a table & a stool.

Another loss for us down here. :(





I quite like the Helpdesk people in a benevolent (as opposed to malevolent) way as they do some valuable work in preventing us being inundated by every halfwit who can work a phone.

Great comedian of his time, sad news. Don`t remember many of the jokes now of course but what I do remember was good.

Will they bury him with his finger?
