The funniest is series 1 when he buys a parrot for company and it continuely swears at him.

"W a n ker! T w8t...tw8t...You tw8t!"

Hilarious!

When Alf gets off a bus (after a lot of hesitative jumping and wobbling), and he stumbles along before crashing into a bollard. He clasps his balls and squeaks "oh bugger". At this point a second bus has just arrived at the bus stop and a young guy helps him back on...! (He says "oh bugger" as it pulls away...!)

I was in hysterics!

Mine's the one when he got a Cup Final ticket but he doesn't go as he'd rather watch it on TV at home with a glass of beer.
Then his TV catches fire & he throws his beer over it to put it out......just as the match is starting.

Brilliant.

I like the Christmas special when he's talking about spending Christmas alone, eating, watching 'Her Majesty on the telly' having a beer. It seems quite sad and the doorbell goes and all Alf's family are there with presents and booze shouting 'We're here to keep you company all Christmas Alf!'

He just looks at the camera and whispers 'Bugger'

Another great performance from Mr WHitehouse!

Further to my previous post...........I got married on Cup Final day in 2001.............oh BUGGER!!!!

Only joking....of course.

However, thought of another good Unlucky Alf moment.
He's at a "lady-friend's" house, having afternoon tea or whatever (all VERY civilised & "proper"). Alf says to the camera that things are going well with her & he's going to ask her out (or something, it's been a while & can't remember the specifics but he's angling to take it to the next level.....you get the picture).
Anyway, the lady's cat jumps up on Alf's lap while he's sitting in an armchair & he duly makes a fuss of it (more Brownie points for Alf), but when he stands up to leave (or whatever) the cat doesn't jump of his lap, it digs its claws into Alf's nether regions, until his trousers are ripped to shreds.
His lady friend comes back into the room with a tray of cakes or something, takes one look at Alf standing in the middle of the room with his trousers 'round his ankles & just looks at him so disapprovingly & with a shake of the head says: "Oh no Alf...NO!!!!"
Not only has he blown his chances but his privates are probably covered in scratches too???

Oh BUGGER!!!

The whole run-up to his girlfriend's death was hilarious, but the coup de gras was when he took off his hat and got hit with bird poo. I actually felt sorry for the poor guy for a split second.

And getting throw through the newsstand window was class too.

the one where he's feeding the ducks at the park, then this goose comes out of nowhere an pecks him on the bollocks...that was hilarious.

Lovethe Bus one as somone else described/ and the puddle one but also the one where Alf goes to a funeral.

'You've buried t'wrong bloke!' coming from a mound of earth in the grave yard

So so simple but pure genius!!!

Work is the curse of the drinking classes...

reply

The one where nothing is earthed and when he touches his front door handle a lightning bolt shoots out! "oh bugger!"

"Knowledge is cheap at any price"

The one when he leaves for the beach, and he goes, "Bugger. I forgot me wallet. Could've been worse..." he walks back to town and everyone is throwing *beep* pies at his face!
That or, "You see that hole up there? Knowing my luck, I'll go and fall into that..." he walks up the road and falls in "Bugger..."

"You're not my daddy."
"What a clever little boy it is. Or thinks it is.

Seconded on the holiday trip, NERigby.

My favourite thing is the vicar peeing through the letter box. He sees Alf, looks a bit shocked, then just shrugs and carries on.


The restitution of life is no great feat. A variety of deaths may well enter into your punishment
