UK-Ireland box office up in first quarter of 2026, boosted by book-to-screen adaptations

'Project Hail Mary', 'Wuthering Heights', 'Hamnet' and 'The Magic Faraway Tree' have all been released.

“The UK-Ireland box office rose 6% year-on-year to £199.3m, in the first quarter of 2026, led by book-to-screen adaptations including Sony’s Project Hail Mary and Entertainment Film Distributors’ The Magic Faraway Tree.

Project Hail Mary, adapted from Andy Weir’s 2021 novel, was the highest-grossing release in the UK-Ireland with £27.1m, while Enid Blyton-inspired The Magic Faraway Tree was the highest-grossing UK independent release in the territory in the period, grossing £11.6m for Entertainment Film Distributors, according to figures published by the BFI.”

Of course future Five-Timer Nicola features in 2 of the 12 funniest SNL UK sketches!

7. 45 Seconds with Fouracres

If the surreal fever dream that was Bob Mortimer and Vic Reeves’s Shooting Stars ever returned, it would almost certainly air something like “45 Seconds with Fouracres”. The recurring SNL UK skit sees scene-stealer Fouracres go solo, wearing a Hugh Hefner-esque robe and intensely launching into song in a bit that completely ignores the time limit in its title. The sketch’s inaugural outing – in which a rambunctious Fouracres wanted to know exactly “what kind of Irish” your grandad is – became one of the show’s first viral sensations thanks to his impressive yet unintelligible impressions of Irish dialects. With a frenzied Fouracres switching from an aggressive Dublin dweller to a nostalgic Northern Irish OAP at break-neck speed before belting out a traditional Irish rebel song with guest Nicola Coughlan, it’s impossible to take your eyes off of him. That’s down to his bizarrely hilarious performance but also partly out of fear – who knows what this wide-eyed maniac will do next?

5. From the coward in Mykonos to the hero in Luton

Don’t you hate it when fragile masculinity ruins your holiday and also your entire life? That was the unfortunate fallout in this brilliant sketch about a man, played by Fouracres, who drugged some pilots on the flight home from Mykonos because he wanted to win back the respect of his wife. He hadn’t found the courage to complain about being ripped off in a restaurant despite her insisting he did so, so he thought… flying a plane (??) might repair the damage to his ego. Nicola Coughlan’s panicked flight attendant discovered the only passengers who thought they could save the day were male, with misguided but over-confident justifications including “I literally just watched Top Gun Maverick”, “I’m actually really comfortable driving in France?” and, my favourite, “I got my wife pregnant, like, first go.” Was the man’s wife impressed? Yes. Could he fly the plane? No. Patriarchy hurts everyone, guys!

TMFT sequels!

So excited and happy to see Nicola will be returning as silky for two more magic faraway tree movies.

Very pleased that the first one was such a success that a trilogy has been green lit already! 🥳🥳
