At the Britannia Panopticon Music Hall in Glasgow - the oldest surviving music hall in the world, and where Stan Laurel made his stage debut aged just 16 - an evening of silent movies with live musical accompaniment from the Panopticon's house band Gladstone's Bag.
Toni (1928)
Bored rich guy Toni Marr and his doppelganger, the great detective Marini (both played by Jack Buchanan), exchange lives for a month - Toni so he'll get some excitement, Marini so he'll get some peace and quiet.
Hot Water (1924)
Hubby (Harold Lloyd) struggles with domestic life with Wifey (Jobyna Ralston) and his in-laws.
After winning a live turkey in a raffle, Hubby takes it home on a crowded streetcar, much to the chagrin of the other passengers.
Later, he grudgingly takes the family out on his brand new Butterfly Six automobile, with disastrous results.
That evening, Hubby mistakenly believes he's actually killed his mother-in-law, and when she starts sleepwalking later, he thinks she's a ghost haunting him.
