Apparently Stan and Ollie films will be returning to the BBC once the bio-pic is in the cinemas

It looked very good to me and the Sons of the Desert members loved it. |

I agree with Stan Laurel but the rest of the list..  We have such a rich comedy heritage in film and TV and this is the best they can come up with. I'm surprised fracking Ant and Dec were not on the list.  bizarre_eye@Cult Labs and nosferatu42 like this. |

Was Stan Laurel actually a comedian. Or a comic actor? There's a difference. |

| "During the 1920s, Stan Laurel made a series of shorts spoofing the major (usually more serious) movies of the day. 'Dr. Pyckle and Mr. Pride' (1925) is a spoof of the 1920 John Barrymore Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The first half of Pyckle/Pride is a bit slow; then it is just too funny to stop watching. The humour is gentle, playing with expectations about what an "evil fiend" would do and then violating those expectations in very silly ways. Stan Laurel as Mr. Pride is almost unrecognizable and just a stitch!" The first transformation is around the 8:40 mark
