one of our spies is missing (1966)

Cats are being used in experiments to reverse the aging process and Illya (David McCallum) is sent to London to find out who is using the cats. Meanwhile Dr Lancer, a famous scientist, has gone missing and Napoleon (Robert Vaughan) goes to Paris to talk to his daughter. When Dr Lancer reappears looking like his younger self the UNCLE agents realise that their seperate investigations are actually the same and they combine and uncover a plot by women in the fashion industry to develop an anti-aging machine. But THRUSH also have designs on the machine.
The forth enstallment in the Man from UNCLE films, made up of both parts of the TV episodes The Bridge Of Lions Affair makes much more play spoofing the spy genre than in previous films. This is a light hearted spy romp that will entertain, but don't think to deeply.
