| Here's our list of the 50 greatest British movies ever. To keep things fair, we've restricted the list to only one film per director or 'stable'. So, there's only one Bond, one Ealing comedy and one Carry On. Don't like it? Tell us in the forums.

18 - Chariots Of Fire (1981)
Ripping good running yarn with a corking theme tune, some dashed fine acting and heart-warming nostalgia for just about the last time Britain won anything (other than the rugby, match).

16 - Withnail And I (1987)
The foremost British cult comedy. Two aspiring actors go on holiday by mistake. Students recite whole stretches of this film, and still haven't killed it - so it must be as good as it seemed at the time.
