My Dad (a very religious man) loved Dave Allen. My aunt said he's going to Hell.
I met him many years ago as a teenager, when he was on tour in Australia.
He seemed to be a very kind person, but not as tall as I would've imagined. I suppose that's part of the magic of television.
He died in 2005. Three weeks after Allen's death, Karin, his second wife, gave birth to their son, Cullen.
