The 1968 one isn't actually a movie, but a TV series episode compilation. The first story is episode 2 of series 1 entitled A Picture of Innocence.

Laxatives?

Not quite. Remember, Olive was pregnant at the time...what kind of tablets do doctors often prescribe to pregnant women that makes them do a lot more of a certain natural function?

Not laxatives. Something else to make them use toilet often.

A well known actress played one of the women drivers. Name her and what did Stan and Jack do to get rid of her?

I answered it but it is probably on the previous page of posts now. I think "grand" was changed to "randy".

I think you mean Pat Coombs. They put spiders in her cab.

Trivia...Coombs played Inspector Blake's sister im the On the Buses spin-off series Don't Drink the Water, in which Blakey retires from his job and moves to Spain with his sister.
