To people with half a brain cell. I don't find jokes mocking race, gender or sexuality funny I'm sorry. Give me a Dave Allen any day. |  |

Many would say his jokes mocking god and religion would be equally unfunny and offensive. [Post edited 22 Apr 2022 11:33]

To expand on this, what is the difference between Roy chubby Brown taking the piss out of a Muslim cleric to Dave Allen taking the piss out of the pope? |  | |  |

I agree with you entirely. the thing about good comedy is it needs to be allowed to comment on anything and everything...as long as it's funny and not meant to offend. The thing there is, Christians (in the UK at least) rarely complain when they are the butt of jokes but take the mick out of Islam and you can get a very different reaction. Some people like offensive comedians, personally I think they had their day. Frankie Boyle for example, his brand is past it's sell by date. Didn't he get hooked by a tv station and has since toned his material down? Dave Allen was brilliant and I think his act would still stand up today. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

He was a catholic (I was brought up one) and catholics do mock their own religion in a funny but non offensive kind of way. |  |

Chubby Brown does it in a vulgar fashion. He is mocking something he knows little about. Dave Allen on the other hand was a Catholic and knows exactly how to do it right. |  |

Not forgetting that he detested the Church that he was brought up in. His humour was quite brilliant as it was so real yet surreal. |  |

Agres. My mother was Irish Catholic and staunch. However she loved Dave Allen and thought he was brilliant. She hated Ian Paisley ( obviously) but still found DA's joke about Paisley's " Gnashing of teeth on judgement day" ( "For those without, teeth will be provided" ) brilliant. |  |

Frankie Boyle was chucked off mock the week for being too offensive after making jokes about Harvey Price and Rebecca Adlington. He then went on to write for the guardian so they gave him his own show where he and a phalanx of other Corbynite comedians have carte blanche to joke about killing white people. |  | |  |

Dave Allen wasn't a Catholic, re my previous post he always joked he was a "an atheist, thank god" so while he was brought up Catholic, he rejected it as an adult. https://www.skeptical-science. As for non offensive, he was banned from Irish tv in the 70's |  | |  |
| The worst British comedians on 17:16 - Apr 22 with 1162 views | Flynnidine_Zidownes | I think the only truly non offensive comedian is Tim Vine as his act is just silly wordplay and one liners. For most subjects for comedy someone somewhere will get offended by it. |  | |  |

| The worst British comedians on 20:24 - Apr 20 by Flynnidine_Zidownes | Lenny Henry has to be right up there. Never even raised a titter with anyone. The bald bloke from mock the week is atrocious too. Miranda obviously. And the double act of Sara pascoe and Katherine Ryan who can be found on literally every show. |
Totally agree about LH came on the scene in the 1970's joking about black people saying and doing trible screams and shouting "Uuuuganda my friend" then doing uuuuah uuuuuah and tarzan shouts dressed in a leopard skin whilst kissing Jim Davidsons butt. Another one for the comedian bonfire is that Jo Brand every 10 seconds she jokes about being fat, ugly and eating cake and that's it |  |

Only thing Jim Davidson is guilty of is not moving with the times on his an audience with Jim Davidson sitting front and centre laughing like a drain is wealthy, middle class, Jewish lady Vanessa Filtz... Funny old world eh! [Post edited 22 Apr 2022 17:56]

Ireland in the 1970's ( and much later come to that) was always very protective towards the church. So possibly understandable why they banned Dave Allen |  |
