Laurel and Hardy's Laughing 20s

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

1 Their 'talkies' are among the world's favourite comedies, but Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy also made some classic silent pictures in the late 1920s. This compilation pays affectionate tribute to the two stars, tracing the duo's developing style with clips from such films as Putting
Pants on Philip and Battle of the Century. Their work is also compared with that of other silent stars, like Charlie Chase and Max Davidson.
