Would you please stop putting yourself down? Just by doing these reactions you are learning a whole load of new stuff. You can't expect to get it right every time but the fact that you're looking and exploring outside your bubble is brilliant.

Your honesty is very refreshing in today's world.

Gideon is a group that go's around supplying bibles to hotels, motels all over the world. If you look in a hotel rooms draws you will very probably find a Gideon bible.

When you can make a tv set for a long running show that consists of a chair, a small table and a glass of whiskey, you know you are in the presence of talent. Dave Allen was a diamond in the rough; and especially precious now in an era where we have forgotten that irreverance can be funny and doesn't have to be iherently offensive. If you've not seen the How To Tell The Time one its a classic!

The bishop’s shoes would be by his side of the bed.

The nun got out of the wrong side of the bed putting on the bishops shoes, we are left to assume she was sharing the bed with the bishop and f#cking him. (Getting out the wrong side of the bed) is also a British expression meaning you are in a bad mood from the out set of the day.

I think the Pope being Italian threw him off too. It's become engrained in us to not have an Italian Pope for a few generations.

@Conner. I think maybe the bishop is wearing the nun’s shoes. IE they’re sharing a bed. And a religious group called Gideon used to leave a bible in hotel rooms several years ago. Maybe still do.

I love it when Americans don't understand British/Irish wit. David Allen has a wicked sense of humour. The Nun with the Bishop's shoes on. The joke is that that Nun secretly sleeps with the Bishop. When she got out of the bed that morning she accidently put the Bishop's shoes on and not her own shoes. (and gave herself away.) In to the hole he goes. is a wordplay on the Holy Ghost. Kids make their own sense of what they don't get. Holy is confused with "hole he". ghost is confused with "goes".

The holy ghost=hole he goes= in to the hole he goes haha

In what circumstance do you think she managed to put the Bishops shoes on

Connor, you should find the you tube of Dave Allen when he first went to a convent to go to school at the age of 4. Hilarious.

Do not drink coffee with Dave, drink whisky! My childhood revisited, except without the alcohol! Bishops generally are not allowed to "mix" with Nuns. Gideon's Bible used to be left in hotel room drawers. No idea why though. Although my religious parents liked him, I am sure it turned me to a non-believer.

You should put together a set of clips that last about 45 minutes total and do a live stream. In early afternoon, as we're (the UK) 5 hours ahead of you, and then we can explain as you go.

The saying "You got out of the wrong side of the bed". Means you woke up in a bad mood. 😀🎈

A stroller - or a perambulator - carrying a coffin would be the sort of juxtapositional image that would be of interest to Rene Magritte. 'Perspective: Madame Récamier by David' is one of his paintings on this subject of replacing the living with the respective symbol of the coffin, symbolising the dead.

In the UK, we call a strioller a pram, short for parambulator.

The nun was I the bishops bed 🤣

The tree is an allegory it is taken from earlier Babylonian texts. If look in the Bible each time "the tree of" is mentioned it's allegorical.

Dave Allen on teaching his son to tell the time is my favourite of his.

@10:31 mark, you got a point, but one good question is, All of it was his creation. Omnipotent, Omnipresent, who knows the past, present and the future, knows how many grains of sand and how many strands of hair. Adam and Even his very first project but fail to know about the tempting snake in a garden that would ruin all his work, then punish them out of Eden. If God knows what's gonna happen, then why even put a snake in his precious garden? Another thing, yes of course, What's with the fruit that made them aware of their nakedness? Was it really a fruit or something else on that time only when a Man was pared with a Woman? a restriction that didn't showed up until the creation of Eve. Pro-creation.

Well, thank you for getting that one, Conor....and if you suck, so do I, because I didn't get "into the hole he goes" until you said it 🤭 I think perhaps because he said it so fast 😅

The most hilarious thing about this reaction was that you didn't get the bishop's shoes joke, which in and of itself was the the most hilarious joke in the original video. Let us know if you get it now.

Dave Allen is a legend, His show was censored in the US for years.

Thanks mate!

You should also loom at dave allen telling teacbing how to read tbe CLOCK

There is a cultural time gap, in addition to the geographic one. I'm impressed you even dared to take him on.

The book is Gidians Bible left on bedside tables in Hotels etc:

the bishop's shoes joke , have you got it yet ?

All began at the beginning 😅

Gideon is the name of an organization that leaves Bibles in Motels and HOtel Rooms

If you didn't get it, the joke about the atheist and the pope (the character with the Italian accent) telling him he was in a dark room blinfolded looking for a cat (god?) that isn't there the atheists response was you also are in a dark room (blinfolded ?) looking for a cat that isn't there but you found it. The point is there is no cat(god?) to be found so he just thinks he found the cat but since it's imaginary on his part he can't show you the physical body. I found it difficult to get it and even more difficult to describe it. Simply put the pope says to the atheist that he is lost in the dark looking for something that is just not there and the atheist tells the pope he too is lost in the dark looking for something that is just not there only you think you have found it. It's just a funny way to say that god is not real but only a construct of the mind.

Billy Connoly is perfect story telling comedian 👌

There is another episode where Dave Allen does Religious jokes.

Check out Dave Allen and the vagaries of the English Language.

The supermarket one is well funny

You should watch his teaching a kid to tell the time, very funny.

Here goes...wearing the Bishops shoes...the premise is that Nuns' don't do sex, the Mother Superior notes the Bishop's shoes.

She was obviously in bed with the Bishop!

Dave Allen was Irish and back then we were very religious so these jokes were edgy back then. 4:00 You really didn't get that? She's wearing the bishops shoes which means she slept with the bishop. Do you understand Catholicism? Priests/Nuns have to be celibate (which is ridiculous nowadays imo), this is why there are so many Catholic Priest peadophiles. Most of religion is complete nonsense, the odd thing makes sense like Treat others how you want to be treated. In Islam you get 72 Virgins, is that just for men and who says the virgins are all female? They could also be very unattractive virgins

Don't sweat not getting it. You missed absolutely nothing. 😐
