The L & H Murder Case is a classic. Still one of the most watched in my house.

This is definitely one of the best attributes of Hardy and the way he interacts with the audience with one of his looks to the viewer is always good for a laugh.

Just thinking of the part in The Sons Of The Desert when Ollie is feeling ill and Stan calls for a Doctor. An animal Doctor that is! Hardy: "Now why did you wanna hire a Veterinarian for?" Laurel: "Well, i didn't think his religion would make any difference!"

For any members here interested in acquiring the L&H 'suitcase' set it may be worth checking out your nearest HMV. Last Saturday Gateshead's branch had this collection on sale for £22.50 due to the company's current 25% off marked price promo. A very nice result imo considering this release was originally priced at £100.00 then reduced to £30.00. The above outlet had a pile of these sets all with a blue 'X' sticker denoting the £25% off deal and when i took my copy to the till the sales assistant scanned said release through at £30.00. I subsequently pointed out my purchase was part of the promo and therefore eligible for the 25% off discount to which the employee replied "This shouldn't be part of it as it's a sale item.". Still, she offset the relevant deduction and i was most pleased with such a bargain as i'd been after this set for a good while but kept on delaying buying it. I'm glad i held out now considering the saving i made!

Thicker Than Water Mrs. Hardy: "Oliver did I or did I not give you the money to pay on the furniture?" Ollie: "You certainly did" Mrs. Hardy: "Then why wasn't it paid?" Ollie: "Why, I gave it to him (points to Stan) to pay it for me" Mrs. Hardy (to Stan): "Then what did you do with it?" Stan: "I gave it back to him" Ollie: "You gave it to me?" Stan: "Yeah I gave it to you to pay my room and board then you gave it to her, recomember?" Mrs. Hardy: "Do you mean to say that the money that he gave to you that you gave to him that he gave to me, was the same money that I gave to him to pay him?" Stan: "Well if that was the money that you gave to him to give to me to pay to him, it must have been the money that I gave him to give to you to pay my rent - didn't I?" |

I didn't know there was a Laurel and Hardy thread. As Pete says on the first page, Way Out West is his favourite, its also mine too. The dance the duo do is absolutely priceless. One of the greatest scenes in cinema history. As for an episode that hasn't been mentioned yet. Oliver the Eighth is brilliant, funny and when i originally saw it, incredibly scary. They used to show episodes on BBC2 weeknights at around 5.30 in the early eighties. Harold Lloyd and others as well. |

SPOILER It's ruined by a real cop-out ending. "I just had a terrible dream." It should have ended with the widow entering the room, Stan breaking out of the closet (no homosexual innuendo intended), Ollie waking up, and the two of them running away, in traditional (and bumbling) Laurel and Hardy style!
