The Freshmen is on youtube, watched it again the other day. The man was a genius. Preferred him to Keaton and Chaplin.

I used to run home from school to watch this and Laurel and Hardy. They were always on throughout the 80's - 4:00 on BBC2

Obvious Genius and a king for what he did and how he inspired others, but i can never honestly say i got him as much as i should have, i was a big Laurel and Hardy fan but even there silent stuff is not for me .

There should be a channel dedicated to the genre. Chaplin, Lloyd, Laurel & Hardy, Keaton etc
It's a shame it rarely gets shown on tv anymore

I also think there should be a retro kids tv channel showing classics from the 70's and 80's. The modern stuff my daughter watches is crap in comparison.

A pair of glasses and a smile.
Except when he blew half his hand of and nearly blinded himself with a prop bomb, poor chap.
I'm not THAT old, but I remember a LOT more black and white stuff generally being shown on telly even in the 80s, especially on BBC2 daytime and Sundays. Just a lot fo old films, silent comedy, Ealing comedies etc... slung in to bulk out the schedule.

Youtube, although a lot of the old stuff got wiped as the stations started to run out of analogue tapes and they wanted to cut costs.

I loved watching Harold Lloyd but Laurel and Hardy were the kings.
I couldn't stand Charlie Chaplin or the 3 stooges.

Re: Harold Lloyd

I never got Charlie Chaplin at all. Why am I supposed to sympathise with a horrible little cunt who nicks a fat bloke's lunch, kicks him up the arse and then steals his girlfriend? In every single film it seemed.
Hanging perilously from a clock-face, or failing miserably to shift a piano in a sensible manner, is, however, very funny.
