The comedy genius of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy performing 'The trail of the lonesome pine' from their classic film 'Way Out West'.

Imagine what could happen if IKEA started selling cars....

Considering the proliferation of sub compact low cost cars in fast growth countries, exemplified by TATA's venture to create a car costing a mere two and half thousand dollars, this joke is that much more ingenious; some of us are going to be in deep trouble

Of course, you know what'll happen....

There you are picking all the items from the IKEA store 'warehouse' shelves, you've nearly got everything loaded onto your trolley and then you find out the wheels are 'out of stock'

Step back in time and immerse yourself in the unique world of silent film comedy with Laurel and Hardy's hilarious 1927 masterpiece, "Putting Pants on Philip". This beautifully restored edition provides an authentic experience of the duo's earliest on-screen comedic synergy.

Laurel & Hardy - Trail of the Lonesome Pine - O Gordo e o Magro

As one of the most iconic comedy duos of all time, you probably know who Laurel and Hardy are, even if you’ve never watched one of their films. The duo teamed up in the 1920s, and had significant and diverse careers before they even met, but it was their unique chemistry that made them stars.

There was much more to the duo’s relationship than their amicable rapport on screen, however, and things weren’t always as jovial as they may have appeared. This is the untold truth of Laurel and Hardy.
