Laurel & Hardy

[Latka Gravas]

Great post. Used to watch Laurel and Hardy with my grandad too and laughed the whole way through. I can still never see a grand piano without thinking of them trying to get it up a large flight of steps. Zulu too. Absolute class.

Same here. He used to do impressions of them anarl, which I thought was amazing.

Ollie: Didn't I just tell you I was going to be married?
Stan: Who to?
Ollie: Why a woman of course. Did you ever hear of anybody marrying a man?
Stan: Sure.
Ollie: Who?
Stan: My sister.

The simplicity is brilliant.

gag might not work the same these days though

Stan Laurel's sister lived in Roker for years.

Edit, just remembered my favourite line.

Stan: Sure, I’ve got an uncle. Why?
Ollie: Now we’re getting somewhere. Is he living?
Stan: No. He fell through a trap door and broke his neck.
Ollie: Was he building a house?
Stan: No, they were hanging him.

I can safely say that I have never seen them in anything, however the movie looks great and will be going to see it

Just watched Brats (which was on Talking Pictures a while back) and I laughed more at that short film than I ever do at most supposed sit coms. Brilliant.

My favourite, Laurel & Hardy used to baby sit me when I was a toddler...

I love the way Ollie looks at the camera after Stan does something, It still makes me laugh now...
