This is the Christmas special from 1994, on what would be Dave's final stand show EVER.
Often seen as the unofficial 8th episode from Dave Allen's 1993 show on ITV, as this is in the same stage, design and feel. A few of the jokes are recycled but this very much bookended his 1993 series well, with Dave at his most angry and cynical.
His final work also represented some of his best work, being as controversial as ever.
In this special, Dave muses on Christmas, shopping, queues, post offices, cards, dogs, curfews and the birth of Christ. Already uploaded to my channel but this is a cleaner ripped copy and all in one file.

I was born in 1968 and I grew up with him, sadly missed a true master of his craft.

without a doubt the best underrated comedian off ALL time! And super clever

What a treasure. I was a teenager when I watched Dave for the first time and fell in love with his storytelling. Every comedian is a storyteller but not every storyteller is a comedian which is fine after all it takes every kind of storyteller to make the world go round. I am now 56 and have introduced Allen to my hubby of 34 years and Hen really loves his humor. This American couple is thanking you for your upload. By doing this you are taking steps in preserving a legacy for generations to come.🥰
