Chimp In Pathe Cutting Room (1956)

M, S of receptionist Jean Buchan sitting at a desk in an office in Pathe House, London, talking on a telephone. On a shelf behind her is a ceramic painted cockerel; seems to be the one seen in the titles of the Colour Pictorials. Putting the phone down she turns to speak to animal trainer William Lenz of Bertram Mills Circus ( Just one of the many personalities who visit Pathe Pictorial every week ) who sits in a waiting area with a chimpanzee called Janet. He gives his magazine to Janet and walks off. M, S and C, U of Janet (wearing cream jumper with red dungarees) rocking in her chair and smoking a cigarette, then flops back in her chair looking bored. The producer wants his head examined, says Janet as the chimp knocks her finger on her head. After all, what s Sabrina got that I haven t, and I m not just a pretty face says commentator as Janet sticks her tongue out, licks her lips and yawns. M, S of the receptionist talking on the phone; C, U of Janet flicking through the pages of a magazine;
