Dave Allen: Goodnight ...

[Seaton]

... and May Your God Go With You.

Nice documentary presented by Ed Byrne on Radio 4 at the moment. Was he really considered for James Bond? It also features our own Graham McCann, author of "The Essential Dave Allen" (and "Spike and Co" etc etc). I say "our own" because he's the cousin of someone on here, isn't he?

Worth a hour of anyone's time, I think.

It was on Saturday at 23:00 on BBC Radio 4 Extra

BBC Radio 4 Extra is very different to the real BBC Radio 4
I don't see it on at the moment on Radio 4 or on Radio 4 Extra

Seaton and Steve,
Listening to this now. Even the introduction is brilliant!
Here is the link :

Thanks for the link. Yes, it is great fun and brought back some happy memories.

[Tonch]

An enjoyable and absorbing hour well spent exploring the life and career of a very gifted and intriguing personality.

My thanks to Seaton for alerting me to this and to Edward G for the direct link...when originally broadcast, I only caught the end of it ( rather like Dave and his finger!)

I remember years ago reading somewhere that the prosthetic masks of the Draconians - a race of aliens from Jon Petwee-era Doctor Who - were cast from a mould of Dave Allen's own face!

This is wonderful. it re-collects my memories of fun, study, everything which were we doing at that time. A big Thanks for this.
