Cake went to the movies last night. We, along with 300 guests of all ages crammed ourselves into the Prince Charles cinema for the glitzy ‘A Tale Of Two Continents’ movie premiere featuring everyone’s favourite tea loving chimp!

People had travelled from far and wide to witness Monkey’s breathtaking performance in his eagerly anticipated movie debut. And it was Monkey-madness on the green carpet as fans piled through the doors, popcorn, tickets and mini-chimps in hand.

‘A Tale of Two Continents’ takes you on an intriguing journey from ancient China to the present day, following PG Tips from birth right up to its Rainforest Alliance Certification, received this year.

Monkey stars in the movie as Shennong, legendary Emperor of China, a captain of a tea clipper and an intrepid jungle explorer on a mission to inform the tea drinking public about what goes into the cuppa they love so much, and what Rainforest Alliance Certification really means.

Anyone who missed this tour de force is in luck as the short film is being rolled out to cinemas nationwide as of today. Being the generous type, Monkey is also giving away a special edition DVD and movie souvenir tea towel on packs of PG tips throughout April.

Monkey commented, ‘When a job involves kissing a beautiful co-star, you can’t help but enjoy yourself. I just hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did!’
