Re: Stan and ollie

It is about when they toured theatres in the UK, towards the end of their careers, because they needed the money. Apparently, they were well-received and quite grateful!

Re: Stan and ollie

So i'm off to the flix this weekend to see Stan and ollie, i go with a little trepidation but i have to say the critics reviews have been generally positive. watch this space

How was it tex. Was it fair dictum or done in caricature. My elderly father in law has always maintained that Stan laurel was Australian -born. I keep maintaining he was English. He was as his birthplace is Ulverston, Lancashire. I always enjoyed the work Laurel & Hardy over say the Three Stooges or the annoying Marx bros.

I've been seeing all sorts of photos of the large ads on Buses in England, looks like they did a great job promoting this! Great reviews for the most part. I thought Coogan was good as Tony Wilson of Factory Records too in 24 Hour Party People, and I've seen Reilly be pretty deadpan funny in some U.S. comedies.
