Actor Michael Caine has been titled Britain's greatest living movie star.

He appears with other iconic British celebrities in ShortList magazine, which gave him the title and he hopes it will be years before any of the other actors get a chance to replace him, reports mirror.co.uk.

The actor was delighted to have a blue plaque commemorating his birthplace.

"On the plaque it says 'Voted for by the people', because normally you only get a blue plaque if you're dead. That was an incredible thing to me," he told ShortList 400th Greatest Issue magazine, in an interview.
