During the early 20th century comedians like Charlie Chaplain and Buster Keaton made audiences laugh in their droves.
But let’s not forget the most famous comedy duo from the black and white period – Laurel and Hardy.
Now Steve Coogan and John C Reilly star as the pair in Stan & Ollie, a biographical film based on their lives.
Stan & Ollie is released in UK cinemas on January 11, 2019.
