As a kid loved these two

They look very old in this clip, but I was 12 at the time.

My brother loved them too, Galty. However I never saw the point of 'slapstick' type humour. Didn't like things like Mr Pastry, Marx Brothers, Keystone Cops, Old Mother Riley et al for the same reason.

Re: As a kid loved these two

I still like some of L & H's films, and I love their gentle dance routines too. Could never stand Abbott and Costello or Charlie Chaplin though.

Groucho Marx was the epitomy of wit. Wonderful one liners from the man.

Re: As a kid loved these two

The masters of comedy timing.

Re: As a kid loved these two

I used to love watching Laurel and Hardy films...

Re: As a kid loved these two

There’s a film coming out about laurel and hardy, can’t remember who’s playing them, I think it could be Steve coogan playing laurel, but I’m probably wrong , look out for the trailer it looks good..

That makes two of us - about as funny as a boil on the bum.

Re: As a kid loved these two

Last film of them.

Stan had had a stroke and Ollie must have had cancer.
