LONDON | Wed Jul 1, 2009 8:45pm IST

LONDON (Reuters Life!) - "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" stayed top of the British box office for a second week, having set a 2009 UK opening record on its debut.

The effects-rich, alien vs robot war movie took 4.3 million pounds to add to the 8.3 million it collected last week, according to Screen International on Wednesday.

Booze-soaked lads' comedy "The Hangover," was unchanged in second place.

"Year One" was new at three with Jack Black and Michael Cera as a Pythonesque Stone Age pair in search of love and adventure while Cameron Diaz and Alec Baldwin came in at four with tangled tear-jerker, "My Sister's Keeper".

Ben Stiller in "Night at the Museum 2" was down at five from three, with "Terminator Salvation," the fourth film in the franchise and the first not to star Arnold Schwarzenegger, slipping two places to six.

Samurai slasher, "Blood: The Last Vampire," made its debut at seven while "Angels and Demons," the follow-up to "The Da Vinci Code," was down three places at eight.

Bollywood movie "New York," set against the background of the 9/11 Twin Towers attacks came in at nine, while the story of two women searching for a new start in life, "Sunshine Cleaning," made its debut at 10.
