Monsieur Alfonse is a fictional character in the BBC sitcom 'Allo 'Allo!, which ran from 1982 to 1992. He was played by the actor Kenneth Connor.
Monsieur Alfonse is the town undertaker first seen when René fakes his own death. Alfonse quickly falls in love with Edith, and René has to propose to Edith or lose his cafe as everyone believes he is dead. Alfonse also has a small fortune in a Swiss bank account therefore Edith's mother agrees with the match as Alfonse would make a better husband financially. The undertaker's catchphrase is "swiftly and with style" and he also has a dicky ticker which comes on everytime something stressful (or arousing) happens, and also suffers from the less publicised 'tricky truss'. He admires René for all the brave work he does for the resistance and agrees to admire Edith from afar.. When he finds out about René's affair with Yvette he tells Edith but René manages to fob Edith off with another excuse.
