Fascinating clip, the first bit showing a casual Stan and Ollie smoking cigarettes and enjoying a drink.
These two were quite wild in their time. Stan Laurel in particular was a world away from the dimwit he portrayed on screen. He had three wives and dozens of mistresses; a hard drinking, chain smoking womaniser.
Ollie enjoyed the ladies and the good life too, but was perhaps a little more conservative in his tastes. He spent much of his time on the golf course.
Two legends...brilliant films, and a crying shame we don't see those films on TV these days.

Thanks sesley. I've been thinking about you a lot. What's happening at Christmas? Your son coming home?

L&H are legends as far as I am concerned...the original slap-stick double act...absolutely hilarious. AH
