A prison mess hall, a loaded gun, and Stan Laurel's gloriously misguided sense of timing! In "Pardon Us" (1931), Laurel and Hardy find themselves behind bars, where Stan's accidental gunfire turns an already chaotic situation into a comic catastrophe....

Never forget when a young boy with Down’s syndrome was turned away from his local football team.
When Brentford heard about it, they invited him to a game and made sure he had a day to remember.
After the final whistle, instead of heading straight down the tunnel, the players came over and celebrated the win with him.
For a young lad who just wanted to be involved in football, that must have meant everything.
Brilliant from Brentford. ❤️👏

I love this precious bit of film showing Stan Laurel and his father Arthur Jefferson, during Stan & Ollie's 1932 visit to England. Arthur initially stood completely still, thinking the moment was being captured as a still photograph. But Stan soon gave him a little nudge, and a few hijinks followed—resulting in two marvelous, remarkably similar grins.

"Filmed yesterday morning at Westside Animal Rescue in Phoenix. Carlos, 39, came in to "just browse" dogs, unsure if he was ready for the commitment. Staff introduced him to Rocky, a four-year-old Shepherd-Lab mix. Carlos sat on the floor with him for thirty minutes - calm, easy, a normal meet-and-greet.
Then Carlos stood up and said he wanted to think it over.
That's when Rocky moved. No barking, no jumping - he rushed forward and wrapped both front paws around Carlos's leg and held on. Carlos tried to step away; Rocky slid across the floor still gripping tight, shaking, tail tucked, whining softly.
Volunteer Jessica was in the room. "Rocky wasn't being aggressive - he was terrified. You could see it in his whole body. He thought Carlos leaving meant being abandoned again." Carlos froze. After a long moment, he knelt back down. Rocky immediately climbed into his lap, still trembling. "What's his story?" Carlos asked. Jessica explained: Rocky had been surrendered twice, both times by owners who said they'd "be right back" and never returned. He doesn't trust that people come back anymore.
Carlos sat on that floor for another hour before saying, "I can't leave him thinking I'm another person who's going to disappear on him."
He filled out the adoption papers that afternoon. This morning, he sent us a photo - Rocky sprawled across Carlos's couch, all four legs stretched out, finally convinced someone is staying for good.

We are profoundly saddened by the loss of Kevin Keegan. A giant of English football, he was a cherished figure at the very highest levels of the game.
Our condolences go to Kevin’s family, loved ones and all those he inspired as a manager, player and person, on and off the pitch.
Rest in peace, Kevin ❤️

Kevin Keegan has passed away! I would love it, love it! If that wasn't true 😑 #RIPKevinKeegan

July 1966 and the country watches on as the Charlton brothers take England into the World Cup final…
But their dad - Bob- misses it all because he’s working a coal shift two miles underground
The Coal Board and the BBC put on a special showing once back at the surface… 🏴

I love that David Bowie's and Brian May's reactions were captured when Annie Lennox gives it everything, and that George Michael singing along in the back!
Fantastic video and the very best music.
