AMERICAN REACTS TO DAVE ALLEN | AMANDA RAE

I'm old enough to have seen all these back in the day. Forgot how good this man was. Thanks Amanda for cheering us up.

Yep, an absolute legend sorely missed

He was, is, and forever shall be a comedy god. Never fails to make me laugh.

I remember him from his own series in the mid to late 70s on BBC 2. I was just a teenager but he was hilarious.May your god go with you!! Was always his final words!!!😂😂

I grew up watching Dave Allen! He was phenomenal! Me, my mum, gran and dad used to sit there with tears streaming down our faces! Brilliant!

Best Irish comedian ever. His observations of mundane things of life and religion were a laugh a minute. He would have a field day observing todays World as it is even crazier than the last Century! 😂😂😂

For me, Dave Allen was a must watch show on Saturday night back in the 1970's

That was a wonderful tribute to him Amanda. Not only was he a very funny comic, but he was a warm family guy, much loved by all.

The late, great Dave Allen, it's wonderful that his work lives on and people get to see him for the first time, RIP Dave Allen.

Isn't it amazing. He's resting in peace and yet , still makes us laugh, and always will. R.I.P. Dave, till we meet again.

PROPER LEGEND! Lots of happy memories watching him as a kid.✌🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Dave Allen made you laugh at yourself because his humour was observational and he was observing you! Fifty years ago I saw him at Blackpool at a matinee performance on the Pier. I enjoyed him so much I went with my parents in the evening. He never told the same gag twice and the evening performance was entirely different but just as funny. My mother and i came out on our knees with tears streaming down our cheeks. My father, a dour Yorkshireman, rarely smiled never mind laughed. When my mother asked him what he thought he replied .... "It were alright I suppose ..... if you like laughing!".

He was a genius . HIS RELIGION SKETCHES WERE JUST GLORIOUS. Every time I feel down ,I put on one of his dvd suddenly life is good. Rest in peace Mr. Allen & thank you for laughters .

Dave Allen was a one-off. I can remember watching him when I was a kid, I used to love his shows.

Dave Allen has probably been my favourite observational comedian from being a kid in the 70s. Bloody brilliant and fuck funny. RIP Legend...

When comedians were funny and not scared to talk about anything and no one got offended. A genuis

I had a friend years ago who used to deliver goods to Dave Allen's house, he told me that Dave Allen was such a nice guy that they used to talk for quite a time and swap jokes (my friend was a brilliant joke teller) My friend was really proud that Dave used to adapt some of his jokes in his act.

I've watched him since being a kid. I used to plead with my mom to let me stay up to watch him, and have laughed at all of his jokes until my sides ached. He was a true legend. No one else really comes close to what he did so well.

Dave was the most loved comic of his time. I used to love to watch him when I was a kid. I was so sad the day he died. It was a loss of a legend. I still love him and always will. Rest in peace Dave, there will never be another like you. ❤❤❤❤

I remember seeing him at the Grove Theatre in Belfast. It was before he became famous. He was the support act to Val Doonican.
