Laurel & Hardy Statue
Graham Ibbeson's sculpture of Eric Morecambe (1999) at Morecambe Bay, Lancashire, won him the commission to create a bronze sculpture of Laurel and Hardy for the town of Ulverston in Furness, Cumbria, where Stan Laurel was born. Ibbeson completed the work in 2005, but it has remained under wraps, awaiting improvements to County Square in Ulverston, where it will stand. South Lakeland District Council has recently agreed to spend £100,000 on improving the square. About time! So, in 18 months, Laurel and Hardy may finally be unveiled.

Looks very much like Karl Rove.
Now that is really unkind, Jim! Poor old Eric. Come to think of it, I doubt if Karl Rove posing like this would go down too well in Texas! Might be worth a try....
