Cary Grant in Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House

on BBC Two England

Continues the BBCtv tribute to Cary Grant who died last year.
Today with Myrna Loy

For years, Jim Blandings, a successful advertising executive, has lived with his wife Muriel in a cramped New York apartment. Finally the Blandings decide to move out and lead an ideal life in their dream house, a 'ruin' in Connecticut.
This sparkling comedy gave Cary Grant and the enchanting Myrna Loy two of their best roles.
