'Busy Bodies' is the famous film where Stan and Ollie work in a sawmill. In 'Double Whoopee' they start work at a plush Broadway hotel - and close a taxi door on Jean Harlow's dress! 'Hog Wild' concerns their efforts to fit a rooftop aerial. In 'Dirty Work' they are back on the roof this time as chimney sweeps at the home of an eccentric scientist. Stan and Ollie are in the building trade for 'The Finishing Touch' while in 'The Music Box' - perhaps their most famous film - they have to deliver a piano up a huge flight of steps.
