Many other social media users begged for the first film to also be added to Netflix, after it was taken off in November last year.

Mamma Mia 2: Here We Go Again! was released in 2018, ten years after the first movie which made its way to our screens back in 2008.

The story sees the much-loved characters travel back in time to see how young Donna (Lily James) fell in love with the Greek island of Kalokairi.

It picks up five years on from Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) and Sky’s (Dominic Cooper) wedding, as the couple put the finishing touches to a reopening party of the old hotel that belonged to mum Donna (Meryl Streep).

Major spoiler alert: Donna has died, and Sophie is seen reflecting on her mum’s life with her three dads - Bill Anderson (Stellan Skarsgård), Sam Carmichael (Pierce Brosnan) and Harry Bright (Colin Firth).

Fans are treated to flashbacks of Donna - now portrayed by Lily James - and her best friends Tanya (Jessica Keenan Wynn) and Rosie (Alexa Davies).

The film cast also features Jeremy Irvine (young Sam), Josh Dylan (young Bill), Hugh Skinner (young Harry), Christine Baranski, Julie Walters, Andy García, and Cher.
