Tom Holland and Margot Robbie tipped to be next Hollywood legends by UK fans

To celebrate 10 years of Meerkat movies the UK has received it's own 'Hollywood landmark' and it's been signed off by the real deal
Tom Holland, Margot Robbie and Zendaya are tipped to be the next big Hollywood legends, according to a survey of Brits. English actress Florence Pugh, known for her roles in Dune: Part Two and Oppenheimer, and Willy Wonka's Timothée Chalamet also made it into the top five.
The study was commissioned by Compare the Market, which found that the majority of Brits believe the UK should have its own iconic film landmark. To kickstart the idea and celebrate 10 years of movies, the price comparison app has erected a massive replica of Los Angeles' famous 'Hollywood' sign – in Hollywood, Worcestershire.


A spokesperson said: "For 10 years, we've been helping the nation beat the midweek slump and make saving simples with 2-for-1 cinema tickets on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. And what better way to celebrate than by bringing a little slice of Hollywood to the UK's own Hollywood?
"The public's response, and even the message from Hollywood itself, shows how much people still love the magic of the movies."
Cinema nostalgia is increasing, especially among younger audiences, with 51 percent of 25-34 year olds saying recent cult movie sequels have boosted their sense of nostalgia for the cinema.

Around two thirds of the same age group go to the cinema more now than they used to.
The research revealed that 48 percent of Brits go through their weeks on 'autopilot' - with 55 percent desperate for midweek entertainment, not just weekends.
Four in 10 rarely go out and do anything on worknights. Similarly, many are now 'actively looking' for ways to break up their midweek routine.

Steve Nissen, president and CEO of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, commented: "It's not every day you see the Hollywood sign pop up halfway across the world - let alone in another place called Hollywood.
"We're thrilled to see our iconic sign reimagined in Worcestershire and proud to share a little piece of Hollywood with our friends in the UK."

Here's why this new prize platform is unlike anything you've seen before

Brits love the ease and convenience of online shopping. We also love winning - particularly when great prizes are on offer! So what if it was possible to combine the joy of shopping AND the thrill of winning... all in one place? That's exactly what you get with Winnrz, a new arrival on our shores that's offering the UK's only interactive, 'shop and win' experience. Winnrz (available to download on App Store or Google Play) is unlike any other prize platform you've seen before. Here's how it works... Stylish clothing - and massive prizes If you're not familiar with the 'shop and win' concept, that's understandable - as it's totally new to us Brits. Fortunately, it's easy to get your head around. The launch of Winnz coincides with the debut of WellPlaid, a premium clothing store that boasts a curated range of stylish athleisure wear and accessories. The idea is simple. Head to the Winnrz app and buy WellPlaid Credit, available in a range of amounts starting from as low as £1. With every purchase of WellPlaid Credit, you receive a ticket to an exciting prize draw. Once the countdown ends, a live draw is held, and a winner is announced. But the fun doesn't end there! WellPlaid Credits are fully redeemable at the WellPlaid online store, which offers a carefully selected range of high-quality men and women's clothes. Remember - this isn't something you can do anywhere else in the UK. Winnrz is the ONLY place where every purchase comes with a shot at a big win. We won big - here's what it feels like! Is there anything better than finding out you've won a prize? There's the initial excitement when your name is called out. Then the disbelief (is it really true?). And, finally, the joy when the reality finally sinks in. Winnrz is part of Idealz Holding, the parent company with presence in 4 continents and a proven track record of success in the shop and win space, having made more than 10,000 winners worldwide who have claimed more than £85 million in prizes. One man who knows what it feels like to win big is David Conway, who bagged a cheque worth £25,000 after his ticket was picked in a live draw. He was absolutely delighted, and says he'd now recommend Winnrz to 'all my friends and family'. Asharntay Greaves came away with £1,000 after coming across Winnrz on Instagram. 'You've got to be in it to win it!' she says. Meanwhile, lucky Londoner Joshua Johnson bagged £1,000 when he picked up a leaflet during his daily commute. He says: 'I found out about Winnrz on my way home from work. I took one of the flyers being given out. Then I got the phone call. And here we go. Thank you Winnrz!'

The England international is now enjoying himself before returning to London for pre-season. He has flown to St. Kitts in the Caribbean with the island holding a special place in his heart. The exotic holiday destination was the birthplace of Palmer's grandfather, Sterry Palmer. Palmer's love of the island is well-known as he wears the flag of St. Kitts and Nevis on his boots alongside the English flag. It is the first time that Chelsea's No.10 has visited the island and he was given a rousing reception. Palmer was greeted by the deputy prime minister Dr. Hon. Geoffrey Hanley and the minister of tourism Hon. Marsha T. Henderson. A troupe of traditional Masquerade performers were also on hand to give the star an authentic Kittitian welcome. CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS Palmer admitted his excitement to see the island and experience its culture shortly after landing. He said: "Landing in St. Kitts off the back of winning the Club World Cup felt really special. Chelsea fans stunned after Cole Palmer spotted riding SCOOTER before PSG clash in New York "It's where my grandad's love for football started. The island's beautiful and really chilled. "I can't wait to explore the mountains, rainforest and sea - and to try out the food." Palmer's recent achievements were even hailed by the prime minister Dr. Terrance Drew. He insisted that Palmer can help inspire youngsters in St. Kitts and Nevis to success of their own. 9 Palmer's trip comes after his performances at the Club World Cup Credit: Getty 9 The midfielder starred for Chelsea as they won the tournament Credit: Getty 9 He was named the Player of the Tournament Credit: Getty 9 Palmer met president Donald Trump after the final Credit: Getty He said: "Cole Palmer's visit to St. Kitts and Nevis is a powerful reminder of the strength and pride of our diaspora. "His presence and mentorship will inspire the next generation to believe that global success is possible, no matter where you come from. "We are proud to welcome him home and deeply grateful for his commitment to our young people and to the development of sports in our Federation." The trip follows on from Palmer's excellent performances at the Club World Cup in the US. The midfielder engrossed himself in the American lifestyle and even scootered incognito through Times Square before the final against PSG. During the trophy lift, Palmer was left looking confused as president Donald Trump joined the Blues for their celebrations. Palmer's dad, Jermaine, previously spoke about the prospect of him visiting St. Kitts and Nevis and joked that he would need a police escort. Palmer and co will start their Premier League campaign with FOUR London derbies in a row. Enzo Maresca's side first face Crystal Palace before clashes against West Ham, Fulham and Brentford.
