Dave Allen was an alternative comedian before the phrase existed, an innovator who set the agenda for comedy and comedians for more than thirty years.

Give him a stool, a cigarette and a glass of something and he's in his element, reflecting laconically on such diverse subjects as sex, the Irish and God, traffic, smoking, the Bible, life and death. Here he is with his personal choice of sketches, gags and monologues, observing our guilt, weaknesses and doubts and make us laugh at them and at ourselves.
