[gmaureen]

It's wonderful to see Stan with his father. So touching to see them delight in one another. Was that his mother or sister?

[galerius61]

@gmaureen The speaker says she's the second wife of Stan's father.

[gmaureen]

@galerius61 Thank you very much. I don't speak Italian so I could not understand the relationship.

[galerius61]

@gmaureen You're the welcome ! ;)

I live in Bishop Auckland and we have a bronze statue outside the building that used to be one of Stan's fathers theatres.His old school King James is still there but was sadly gutted by fire a couple of years ago,and is currently being rebuilt.

[docmalthus]

Priceless! Stan's father thought he was posing for a still photo, and when Stan tells him it's a movie he does Stan's trademark mussing of hair with his son. Too precious!

[rickygig86]

stupendo documentario!...davvero rari a vederli!

[led7eppelin]

Stan was born in Ulverston, Cumbria. That's why the Laurel & Hardy Museum is based there. You can see a plaque on the house in Ulverston where Stan was born, and the SONS OF THE DESERT do a parade through the town each year on his birthday. I think it was Stan's father who originally came from North Shields.

The footage of Stan with his father is very touching, they are genuinely having a good laugh together. I think Stan's father ran a theatrical troupe, so comedy was in the family.

[LuminousGuy]

Great to see stan with his family like that. His mum and dad looked really proud !

stupendi mitici leggende

[smilzomagro]

Ho riso come uno scemo mentre riproponevano al pubblico quelle piccole gag, ma quanto erano grandi? Direi IMMENSI!

[85dizel]

My car was parked outside this hotel last night, as i take the pooch for a walk on the beach, happy times.

[fastandrea]

heartwarming footage--made me smile!

[deepeemark]

Re Outtakes.  I've heard that Stan had a reel of outtakes that used to 'come out' on special occasions. I seem to recall that it is discussed in the book "The Laurel and Hardy Encyclopedia".

[prettyparisian]

Lol Stan Started crying in Tynemouth wow!I love the way stan gives his mum and dad a kiss =) very special.

[moominpic]

Fabtastic. My family lived in Tynemouth and N. Shields. My great-grandfather once went to decorate AJ's house and was chased by a lion... turned out to be a great dane dressed as a lion.

[nortymonk]

Does anyone know of any Laurela & Hardy footage with out-takes?

[AWM123456]

Nope.

due grandi uomini e attori dal cuore grande

[prettyparisian]

Great to have had a comedy genius live and visit my own home. I love the Grand and Dockwray square in North Sheilds was actually where stan lived for a part of his life =D x

[1more4theroad]

God love 'em, one and all! I am sure Stan's father, AJ, is running his favorite music halls in heaven while 'the Boys' entertain them all! I am glad they saw this much appreciation. I bet they would have never thought how popular and how much they continued to be loved and appreciated around the world. RIP Boys and see you soon!

[mcbassil44]

Fantastic to see Stan's parents enjoying his success. I never knew this footage existed! Brilliant!

[IdaSputum]

@mcbassil44 Youtube's brilliant! On it i learned that Stans dad ran theatres and gave Stan all kinds of jobs off and onstage, & his mum was a dramatic actress. Then in his comedy duo with Ollie, Stan carried on with offstage and onstage business like his father taught him, doing lots of script-writing and directing, but Ollie preferred to act. I LOVE this little vid.

[Ganbareg]

Tralasciando la loro superba verve comica ke meriterebbe un libro e non solo poke righe di un commento...di Stan Laurel una citazione detta in un punto di morte rimarrà impressa nella mente di tutti:

-come vorrei stare sulla neve a sciare ( Laurel all'infermiera )

- le piace sciare ? ( l'infermiera a Laurel )

- infatti lo detesto, però sempre meglio ke stare qui ( Laurel all'infermiera )

Un grande anke negli ultimi momenti della sua vita...

[Sofocle91]

[cgrass]

Nice to see his real smile come out when he looked at his father. Priceless.
