Mum and dad, Steph, 36, and Matt, 37, are using homemade costumes, props, face paint and a good dollop of imagination to recreate some classic flicks.

Their kids, Edith, seven, Arthur, two, and baby Olive are getting in on the action as well, with the Taylor’s uploading fresh challenges every day. 

The family initially sent the snaps to their friends and family to guess, but they were so impressed they convinced the Taylor’s to share them.

The family set up a social media account called Guess The Movie, saying: “We dress up as a different movie each afternoon for our loved ones to guess. 

“They encouraged us to share them. We hope you enjoy guessing the movies.”
