Final reminder that Alastair Sooke and I will be looking at old and new art in Venice on BBC2 at 10pm tonight (Wednesday). The Times calls us 'Laurel and Hardy aesthetes'. Which I suppose is better than, say, Cannon & Ball aesthetes, or the Chuckle Brothers.
Clips etc. here.
Update - a reader writes:
In Germany, Laurel and Hardy are known as Dich und Doof - I['m] sure I don't need to tell you, fat and stupid. I offer no comment on its suitability as a description.
Update II - missed the show? Here it is on iPlayer.
