PETER CUSHING: LAUREL AND HARDY : CHUMPS AT OXFORD CONTRACT

Peter Cushing's contract (bearing his signature) with Hal Roach Studios for A CHUMP AT OXFORD (1940) with Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. Cushing recalled it was in the evening when they filmed his final scene getting tossed into the pond. Laurel and Hardy personally made sure that every actor who got wet received towels and hot drinks. Cushing was star struck by Laurel and Hardy and would remember them fondly for the rest of his life.

HAMMER FILM PRODUCTIONS: 'CAPTAIN CLEGG' TONGUE IN CHEEK BEHIND THE SCENES PHOTOGRAPH (1962)

A great tongue-in-check photograph taken during the making of Hammer Film productions 'Captain Clegg' aka 'Night Creatures' (1962) starring Peter Cushing. Here we have Patrick Allen as Capt Collier and his Queens Customs men waiting at the bus stop! I think they would have needed something a little faster than a Number ten bus to catch Clegg, Mipps and the 'marsh phantoms'!
