    I know Fuzzy has a few "Dave Allen" clips out here (and I think some "Two Ronnies"). Hoping for more, since I can't find his show on DVD. Any truth to the rumor that it was Marty Robinson that suggested the movie-length "Dr Who"?

    I remember Dave Allen. My parents used to watch him. I was quite young then (teenager I believe) but my dad thought he was hysterical. My dad is British so that might be why he liked it.
