The Stars At Home [norman Long & Charlie Austin] (1930)

Norman Long is the personality featured in this story. “Here he is, at home, very unconventional, and minus a piano.“ C/U of Norman trying to make something in the kitchen. He gets into a mess with the gooey mixture. “What I don’t know about cooking would fill - well, Bart’s Hospital,“ said Norman.“ He pours some dark coloured liquid into a glass and instead of adding this to the mixture, he drinks it. We then see Norman in his garden. He is carrying a spade, a bucket and lots of other things which he drops on the ground in a spectacular fashion. He then kicks the bucket. He starts to dig using a fork but his foot keeps slipping off. His dog runs close by him and Norman threatens him with the fork. Norman pretends that he has stuck the fork in his foot - he hops around on one leg holding his foot. We then see Norman attempting to prune a hedge. He pretends to cut himself. Norman plays with his dog and through a camera trick, suddenly disappears. The Pathe cameraman then meets Charlie Aust
