Gøg & Gokke - Laurel and Hardy (The story)

Laurel and Hardy is a very touching and humorous story about the two former popular comedians Stan and Oliver. Stan and Oliver's heyday as Cuckoo and Gokke is over, and they are not as well known as they used to be.

Stan and Oliver therefore decide to regain their popularity among the masses of the world by going on a long tour through Britain in the wake of the Second World War to perform. This tour, however, will be marked by the enormous pressure that comes with being on the road all the time.

Laurel and Hardy were a double act from 1927 to 1955, consisting of Englishman Stan Laurel (1890–1965) and American Oliver Hardy (1892–1957). Starting their career as a team in the silent film era, they transitioned easily to the new talking pictures and became internationally famous for their slapstick comedy. Laurel's character was clumsy and childlike; Hardy's was domineering and genteel, but both were inseparable friends. Their theme song, known variously as "The Cuckoo Song", "Ku-Ku", or "The Dance of the Cuckoos" (by Hollywood composer T. Marvin Hatley) was heard over their films' opening credits, and became as identified with them as their derby hats.
