Research from TalkTalk TV has found that up to 5.5 million mothers and fathers will once again watch their kids' top film over the Easter weekend but some mums and dads find the repetitive movies a blessing in disguise.

TV presenter Angellica Bell - who has Elijah, seven, and Keziah, five, with husband Michael Underwood - said: ''Our children must have watched the 'Lego Movie' over twenty times now! If I'm honest, it's quite useful for me as it gives me a chance to catch up with housework and Michael usually takes a cheeky nap on the sofa.

''But now we're clued up on our movie Easter eggs thanks to TalkTalk TV, when we next sit down with the children to watch the 'Lego Movie' for the millionth time, it will certainly be a lot more fun for us too.''

However, 62% of parents say they have never spotted a movie Easter egg - which is an intentional inside joke or hidden message or image that can be spotted in a film.

To help out, TalkTalk TV has identified the top 10 movies which Easter eggs can be found in.

They listed: 'The Greatest Showman', 'Moana', 'Incredibles 2', 'Finding Dory', 'Paddington 2', 'Coco', 'Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2', 'Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark', 'Mary Poppins Returns' and 'Christopher Robin.'
