The legendary Dave Allen, born in Ireland in 1936, was an iconoclastic and controversial presence on the BBC, ITV and TV stations across the world from the 1970s to the 1990s. He remains an influence on countless comedians and writers, and is beloved by all lovers of intelligent humour whether they first encountered him on a grainy TV set decades ago or today on YouTube.
