It’s Oscar Night – Get Set for a Truly Glamorous Evening!

It’s the perfect night of the year to get the popcorn at the ready, crack open a bottle of something sparkling and sit back to enjoy the extravaganza that is the Oscars! You’ll be able to watch the entire evening on the TV with coverage starting at 10pm on Sky Cinema Oscars so you can watch the red carpet arrivals and get a glimpse of those celeb outfits. Then you can switch over to Sky1 at midnight for Oscars 2019: Red Carpet Live hosted by Alex Zane. Then it’s back to Sky Cinema Oscars or Now TV to watch the main event from 1am right through to 4am.  It’s going to be spectacular from the start with Queen opening the ceremony with a live performance.

So what are the top picks for a 2019 Oscar?

Well there are two dramas with 10 nominations each and those are Roma, the Netflix drama set in 1970s Mexico, and The Favourite, another period drama about Queen Anne. Then there is Vice and A Star is Born, both with 8 nominations each.  Interestingly, Black Panther has been nominated for Best Picture. It’s the first time ever that a superhero film has been nominated for this award. Bohemian Rhapsody is also up there with a lot of potential to take an award or two.

Those crazy gift bags

Personally, if I was invited to the Oscars, I’d have to go just to get my gift bag. Full of over the top luxury gifts, these highly coveted bags contain delights adding up to hundreds of thousands of pounds. This year the nominees will be getting a holiday to Iceland or the Galapagos Islands, but there are some odd gifts too such as a wearable breast pump and a poo emoji toilet plunger that apparently glows in the dark. I guess so the celebs can save electricity when unblocking their loo at night?

Give your car the VIP red carpet treatment

Don’t you think it’s time you caught up with the rich and famous Oscar winners and got yourself a private number plate? No self-respecting celebrity would be seen without one, or a dozen, so how about it? You don’t have to be a multi-millionaire to own a private plate, we’ve got loads of fabulous plates available for well under £100. There are so many plates to choose from, you might even want an Oscar plate such as OSC 412R!
