As the publisher of FabUK Magazine and founder of FabUK Productions, I first met Eloise Sarasini during the Miss England 2024 Final at the Grand Station in Wolverhampton. Attending as an official media partner with my team, I was immediately struck by her natural warmth, presence and talent as she proudly represented Shropshire and reached the Talent Round.
What began as a media encounter quickly grew into a creative collaboration. To explore her potential further, we worked together on two short film projects in London. Her performances confirmed what I had already sensed that Eloise possessed the depth and authenticity needed for the screen.
After sharing the short films and my thoughts with my business partner Ebru Ergin FABUK FILM in Ankara, we offered Eloise one of the main roles in the Sivas segment of our first feature film, YEMEK THE MOVIE, produced by FabUK Production in collaboration with 24 Kare.
Eloise travelled to Sivas for a week of intense filming and delivered an outstanding performance. YEMEK THE MOVIE is a story that celebrates how food connects people, cultures and memories, themes that Eloise embodied both on and off camera.
Since competing in Miss England, Eloise has settled into a new chapter of life, welcoming twins into her family. Despite the demands of being a new mother, she remains incredibly proud of her role in this international production, and we are equally proud to have worked with her.
The gala premiere of YEMEK THE MOVIE will take place on 3 September at IBB Beyoğlu, Istanbul, with the film opening in cinemas across Turkey from 11 September.

We would like to thank Miss England for their continued support and congratulate Eloise on this exciting milestone in her acting journey. We look forward to many more collaborations ahead.
