The second in a new season of comedy films stars tonight Cary Grant, Ginger Rogers, Marilyn Monroe with Charles Coburn, Hugh Marlowe

With the aid of a laboratory chimpanzee a research chemist formulates an elixir of youth - but the effects of rejuvenation turn out to have some unexpected and hilarious results.
Howard Hawkes gave Marilyn Monroe her first major comedy role in Monkey Business. It was the fourth in a series of stylish, breakneck comedies that he had made with Cary Grant, and one of the most successful.

Written by Talbot Rothwell
[Starring] Frankie Howerd
A sort of 'Carry On up the Forum' starring Frankie Howerd as a slave who is too eager to please

Writer Talbot Rothwell has used more than a few old jokes in the Carry On films but never as old as this which is based, very loosely indeed, on the works of Plautus (who lived some 2,000 years ago)
