Our coverage of Laurel and Hardy's career as a comedy team brings us to the Spring/Summer of 1929 and their cameo appearance in M-G-M's 'spectacular' feature film, The Hollywood Revue of 1929. This was the boys' first appearance in a feature-length picture and marked a significant moment in their history.
To discuss the movie and the stars who appear in it, Patrick is joined by film historian and regular guest expert Randy Skretvedt.
