Irish performer Dave Allen was one of the great stand-up comedians, even if he was mainly sitting down. A natural storyteller, his relaxed and easy style masked biting satire and attacks on every day life, and often Catholicism. He also had this brilliant sketch show. This dialogue-free classic is a masterclass in set up and payoff, cranking the tension along the way. #ClassicComedy #ComedySketch #SilentComedy | Adrian Mackinder
