Dave Allen in Search of the Great English Eccentric (1974)
Excellent
I have seen clips of this before and being a slight eccentric i find the people shown in this documentary a wonderful breathe of fresh air; even more so some of the comments made by those interviewed. I believe it makes a whole load more sense having circumnavigated the world and its people during the last 28 years; observe, digest and understand non conformist people, simply great.
Dave Allen was a fine comedian but this is just an exploration of eccentrics, comedy set aside. Some of them are a little out of my league but the Vicar is class and the old man living in a shed at the back of another families house is strangely appealing, no fuss, no worries and money becomes a minor requirement.
In fact if you watch this a couple of times you just might re-think a few things.
