On the occasion of the replay of the film “Love at first sight in Notting Hill” tonight on TMC, we offer a quiz on its main actor Hugh Grant!
If Hugh Grant was rather discreet during the decade 2010, appearing during these ten years in the credits than six feature films, the actor is however much more present since 2020, with already nine films and two series TVs.
But his golden age will undoubtedly remain his comedies from the 90/2000 years and in particular the four major popular successes Love Actually (do you think you know the film by heart? Prove it!), The Bridget Jones newspaper, four weddings and a burial, and love at first sight in Notting Hill.
This last film in which he formed an iconic couple with Julia Roberts is rebroadcast this evening on TMC, the opportunity to offer you a quiz on the most British of the actors. But before you start, some filming secrets on the film signed Roger Michell.

The famous bench on which the characters of Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant are located in the city of Perth west of Australia. The book that William reads on this bench is Captain Corelli's mandolina novel that was to be at the time the next project of the director of love at first sight at Notting Hill, Roger Michell, before he fell ill and the film was directed by John Madden (Captain Corelli).
$ 15 million
During the dinner, when the character of Julia Roberts unveils the salary she touched to play in her latest film, it is in fact the real cachet that the actress perceived to embody Anna Scott in love at first sight at Notting Hill: 15 million dollars. At that time, the late 1990s, the actress was the best paid in the world and chained boxes like romantic comedies The marriage of my best friend, love at first sight at Notting Hill or Just Married (or almost).
