A lavishly illustrated talk by “A.J” Marriot, author of Laurel & Hardy – The British Tours, complemented by rare photos and video clips of Stan and Ollie’s 1953-54 tour of Great Britain and Ireland.

Every trial and tribulation the Hollywood film legends endured to try and eke out a living in their post-film years is humorously and poignantly narrated by the author, as we travel with them on this exhausting and now legendary tour. A must-see for Laurel & Hardy fans.

Followed by an Q&A hosted by Robin Ince.
