Well here they are together in the same room at Celebrity Cutouts, based at a business park on Randall Park Way.

The company makes life-size cardboard cutouts and masks of famous celebrities, and ships them all over the world.

“Our One Direction cutouts are huge in America. The teenage girls are going mad for them,” said office manager Christie Kent.

“Here in the UK our most popular figures are probably Harry Styles, Gary Barlow, Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift.”

The business launched last year when they started making masks for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee.

Said Christie: “We sold loads more than we were expecting. So we decided to branch out and do Justin Beiber, and it’s just grown from there.”

“If there’s a particular celebrity you want, we can source them for you and get it printed. We can even do personalised products using a photo of yourself or a friend. They are especially popular for hen and stag parties.”
