The socialites in question: twins Brittany and Tiffany Wilson, who they later go undercover as when their plan goes pear-shaped.

We've just celebrated 10 years of its release... and yet we can still quote it line by line, albeit it apart from when our cackles of laughter interrupt us.

Written by and starring the hilarious Ali Wong and Randall Park, this 2019 rom-com sees childhood friends reunited after taking wildly different paths in life. Always Be My Maybe also comes complete with an epic cameo from Keanu Reeves and a spot-on soundtrack.

You never knew you needed New York City Zoo Animals voiced by Jada Pinkett Smith, Ben Stiller, Chris Rock and David Schwimmer so much, until you've seen Madagascar.

Shrek poked fun at old-age fairytale tropes and brought us one-liners we still use today. It's been twenty years since Mike Meyers lent his voice to an ogre, Eddie Murphy to a donkey and Cameron Diaz to a princess, and while we might be 30, rather than 10, it still brings the laughs.

A British romantic comedy that reminds one vaguely of Four Weddings And A Funeral, Love Wedding Repeat sees an ill-fated but beautiful Italian wedding go through multiple eventualities with funny mishaps along the way.
