A presentation by “A.J” Marriot, author of “Laurel & Hardy – The British Tours,” is a lavishly illustrated talk, 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 in conversation with Robin Ince and Q&A.

Overall event running time: Approximately 90min
