It’s fading fast now, and will be wiped out by Deadpool 2 shortly, but Avengers: Infinity War has raced past The Dark Knight Rises after just three weeks to become the highest-grossing superhero movie of all time at the UK box office. Next in its sights is a place in the UK all-time top ten, usurping Mamma Mia! Sherlock Gnomes took a little less than predecessor Gnomeo and Juliet managed during its opening weekend back in 2011. But the sequel hauled in enough loot to suggest we’ll be getting plenty more feeble gnome-related puns over the next few years. Female-skewed comedy I Feel Pretty continues to do well with superhero-dodgers and is joined in the chart by this year’s Melissa McCarthy flick, Life of the Party. The latter took much the same as The Boss, McCarthy’s previous collaboration with her director hubby Ben Falcone, two years ago. The weekend’s big loser was Entebbe, which failed to muster even the £150,000 required to chart.
