Double Whoopee is a 1929 Hal Roach Studios silent short comedy starring Laurel and Hardy.

However, the Von Stroheim style prince starts a prolonged preening process on his white Prussian military uniform.

Jean Harlow also makes a brief appearance in this film, as a blonde bombshell who gets partially stripped by Laurel & Hardy.

For some reason the outer doors don't close and when the prince (who has been busy giving a speech) tries to step in, he falls into the elevator well.

Dick van Dyke and McCann played Laurel and Hardy respectively in a skit on a 1958 broadcast of The Garry Moore Show.
