Seeing the second of the two programmes in the title of the thread advertised on ITV2, I was reminded of a scene from Alan Partridge which (I've just found out spurred the phrase in the first part of the thread title).
"In one scene the eponymous character of Partridge, a failed chat show host, desperately attempts to pitch programme ideas to an uninterested fictional BBC executive (David Schneider), who cancelled his first series. After failing to interest him in ideas plucked from thin air such as Arm Wrestling With Chas & Dave, Youth Hostelling with Chris Eubank, Inner-City Sumo and Cooking in Prison, Partridge comes up with a final spur-of-the-moment suggestion, "Monkey Tennis?"

Now seeing that ITV have lumped Most Haunted and Essex's "favourite" soap together for real, any ideas for more Monkey Tennis shows?
