Thank you my friend keep up great work!👏👏👏

[@shawnbressler8232]

I never get tired of watching. Whenever i am feeling down i watch them. They crack me up every time.

[@Turrican60]

I've been laughing with the boys for 50-odd years, and I still never tire of watching. There's nobody to equal them, let alone replace them, because they're pure comedy gold. Make sure that your kids and grandkids get to see this majestic pair in action, for their work is timeless and utterly irreplaceable. The world should never be allowed to forget Stan and Ollie - it's the least we owe these comedy giants for entertaining generations of fans. Bless them both.

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

I have brought my two young son's up on Stan n' Ollie. They love them. I'm looking forward to bumping into them in Heaven. What a day that will be!

[@Turrican60]

@@JamesMiddletonDesign Sorry for the late reply, my friend, but congratulations on giving your sons the chance to appreciate the work of Stan and Ollie. Very good parenting skills, lol! Would love to bump into these two great comics myself, one day. Let's hope there's a heaven and, just as importantly, it lets me in when my time comes ;-)

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

@@Turrican60 Thanks Turrican60. Ollie was a big Bible reader. Stan wouldn't sleep in a hotel unless it had the Bible in the bedside cabinet. So perhaps they did take eternity seriously?

[@voicegirl555]

Mr. Laurel left us 56 years ago today. He and Mr. Hardy left so much laughter behind for generations to enjoy in the films they made. Thank you Mr. Laurel and you too Mr. Hardy.

[@gerardorcastellanos950]

Watching these two comedic geniuses never gets old. Thank You Stan and Ollie

[@vicmartinoofficial331]

Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were/are wonderful! They were absolutely brilliant comedians. The most inventive and unique of all comedy teams of all comedians possibly. They were truly magnificent! The world was fortunate to have had Laurel and Hardy and still able to enjoy their legacy of laughter.

[@JAY1892]

Whenever I’m feeling down, I come back to this upload. Thank you L&H and to J Middleton. 🙏🏾

[@georgemaster689]

This kind of comedy needs to be preserved properly for future generations to come! It may be old and outdated, but it is still enjoyable.

[@marquiswilt57]

best comedy duo ever

[@voicegirl555]

Oliver Hardy pass away 63 years ago today. It does not seem like he is gone for he and Stan still live in their films which are still being played years after their deaths. Mr. Hardy you had the best look I have ever seen. One look from you and I just break up in laughter. I hope you and Mr. Laurel know how much joy you gave and still continues to do so in the films you left behind. Thank You!

[@clendenenjames8804]

All the joy and humor without anyone getting hurt,one thing about humor it has to have a basic of truth

[@sandramonaghan3130]

Great comedy is timeless this proves it never ever will thre be another pair like this

[@williammclean5040]

AGREE!

[@chrisevans5259]

Laurel & Hardy, masters of comedy in timing, execution, and deliverance. The greatest comedy double act of all time, and generation after generation have, and will continue to laugh in hysterics at their legendary slapstick capers.

[@jessesands4099]

[@chrisevans5259]

The absolute masters of their trade,...but done with an innocence and a charm, that was so endearing and a total delight,......their likes we'll never see again....one off comedy geniuses....

Especially young people see these two?well these are the grandfathers of comedy 🎭 among a few other three stooges ,Charlie Chaplin,the best of best this was timeless talent and miss so very much!thank you to the uploader that was kind enough to post !my gratitude!

[@Bixfan78]

As someone who has spent most of his life researching and writing about Laurel & Hardy (I was blessed to know and interview more than 60 of Stan and Babe's co-workers from the Hal Roach Studio), I thank you for this -- but even more, I thank you for sharing L&H with your two young sons.

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

Thanks Randy! Funnily enough, I am thinking of putting a docu together about the lads at some point. Have you considered doing this yourself? Or perhaps you have.

[@alitob5911]

Ahhh... so pleased to see your name here! Your book is just the best. I so much appreciate all the work and the love that went into it. An invaluable source of great information which I have put to good use on many occasions. Thank you!

[@barrythomas7336]

When Home Video became available (and I was able to afford a unit), the first tape I saw was a Laurel and Hardy film, "Helpmates" I haven't looked back since!

[@rayrichards5375]

Never tire of watching Laurel and Hardy the Original Kings of Comedy

[@brianjohnston4117]

Greatest ever. No bad language. Just pure joy. 😊

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

I totally agree. I have given up watching TV these days - too much violence, bad language, immorality, etc. A culture that has lost its way. A testament to great comedy - the ability to make you laugh without having to surf the gutter.

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

@Rad Derry Good point. However, I was referring to the extremes in graphic violence that we see on the big screen these days.

No swearing or sexual content ,just great comedy for all the family to enjoy ,brilliant and my grandson of 7 loves them now ive shown him them on you tube

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

Spot on! I totally agree.

[@deniswilson8152]

That 1st short featuring the drunk is ABSOLUTELY hilarious!!

[@nezbit8989]

The beauty of these two is that they were pioneers of their art so they had real freedom to perform without being compared too much. Times have changed but in all honesty I don’t think I could find anyone to beat these fellas! I admire so many comedians who have come along since then but to still be funny after all these years means they were pure and naturally funny!

[@robertvanderclock2657]

ALWAYS hysterical......Laurel and Hardy forever!

[@petercunningham2266]

The funniest two men that ever lived.

[@bowwing333]

That Towed in a Hole bit where Stan knows he messed up and he's gonna get it...his reaction and faces.....I can't breathe..the tears xD it's like a little kid when they know they are gonna get disciplined.

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

I was laughing at that very clip last night. A 2 second long panic. Priceless ;)

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

Stan hiding below the boat and glancing through the gaps at a paint covered Ollie is my favourite bit.

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

Very much so!

[@MrBendibus]

Genius. I enjoyed this immensely. Never gets boring.

[@shropsiberian]

02.47. Ollie genuinely can't contain his laughter behind Stan as he does his dead pan stare. Timeless comedy that four generations of my family have loved.

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

I never noticed that before! Well spotted! I'm usually too busy watching Stan's chicken/beaker-like performance.

[@Turrican60]

Congratulations on spotting that - you must have the eyes of a hawk, lol :-)

[@SpikeXtreme]

My Father had a film projector and used to show them when i was young, before video came out ... wonderful memories.

[@philrob1978]

If anyone needed evidence of Stan Laurel's genius, it's right there between 6:50 and 7:28 - he's just naturally funny, crying with laughter again. These films should be treasured. As my parents passed this down to me, the simple joy of sharing these films together, I hope it continues to be shared and not forgotten. And I'm so glad that your kids love them too - there is hope after all.

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

I totally agree. However, ironically, I think his acting skills were bad. He was, as you said, naturally funny. So much so, he pulled it off and in my mind he is the greatest comedian of all time.

[@kittywampusdrums]

Yep. Lol. My Grandpa got me into them.

[@stephenoldfield7124]

His acting skills were incredible.

[@LATVERIAN1]

Dear God, Thanks for giving us Laurel & Hardy. Truly, two of your better creations. And it doesn't get much better than them. Love Always, A fan.. ;)

[@JamesMiddletonDesign]

Amen to that! Did you know that Oli read the Bible everyday and that Stan refused to stay at a hotel unless a Bible was in the room. I hope these rumours are true and that they both had a person faith in Jesus. I would love to meet the pair of them.

[@DavidJsmith-dk5tf]

@@JamesMiddletonDesign So pleased to read that ! My Christian faith has helped me through this covid 19, and much more. John 3 : 16 and other verses from John are my favourites. God bless, David.

The real Stan Laurel was the brains of the duo. He wrote all of the scripts and screen play.
