Mike and Bernie Winters...the only comedy duo with two straight men.
I wouldn't call little Britain original, copied most of it from The League of Gentlemen
Laurel & Hardy. A comedy double act that has seldom, if ever, been surpassed.
Indeed, Ron, nearly a hundred years old and it's still funny, a true testament to their quality.
Eighty-four years old to be precise, I just looked it up. Most of the films are available on YouTube. 
I knew Stan Laurel's grandson quite well in the 1990s, he was a very keen snooker player.

So much comedy in just the expression on his face.

I never got L and H. About as funny as Norman Wisdom imo.
Good to see ROCKING HORSE back. Could someone remind me of his previous mane on here. The forum's technical expert if memory serves.

I can assure you, that all the ' filth' are inside the Conference Hall.

Just to show how we're all different I think Laurel & Hardy are the most unfunny beings to ever grace this planet. No offence intended but just don't get it. Their humour winds me up and can't watch it.
I understand I'm in the minority here.

One of the finest comedy scenes I ever saw featured Laurel and Hardy.
They're in a cafe or maybe it was a bar.
The phone on the wall rings.
Stan is the nearest to the phone, answers it and after a few seconds says "It certainly is", and puts the phone down.
Who was that?, asks Ollie.
Oh just some idiot saying it's a long distance from California.
And Oliie, rather than scolding his mate, says I wish there was some way of putting a stop to these prank phone calls.

I don't suppose it's on youtube, Ron but will have a loook.
Good gosh it is! I got the city wrong.Genius in its simplicity. They were wonderful.

If I were rating this;
Laurel and Hardy would be way in front of the rest, some of their stuff is still funny even now.
Honourable mentions would go to Armstrong and Miller - who were jolly good in their TV shows, especially the Flanders and Swann takeoff.
Would Penn and Teller count, as they're magicians, but they are funny?
Whatever happened to Hope and Keen?
