Did You Know?
| Trivia | Stan Laurel's laughter was infectious; Sharon Lynn (Lola) can be seen laughing unscripted as she tickles Stan during the hotel scene. See more » |
| Goofs | When The Avalon Boys are singing "At The Ball, That's All", there is only one verse to the song that is sung 5-6 times. The first two times it's sung, The Avalon Boys' lips are moving, but for the rest, they sit whilst the song continues, obviously not singing, as their lips are no longer moving. They just watch Stan and Ollie dance. See more » |

Lola Marcel, the Singing Nightingale:
