Brighton and Hove is the latest city to get a customised version of Monopoly, the world-famous property trading board game.

The city already has its own Marlborough Street, Vine Street, Oxford Street and Bond Street - all of which appear in the original Monopoly - but the company behind the new edition is inviting people to nominate their favourite places for inclusion.

With its sky-high property prices and exclusive residents such as Cate Blanchett and Simon Fuller, Lewes Crescent and Royal Crescent could both easily pass for Mayfair.

Perhaps Whitehawk would replace Whitechapel, The Argus could take over Fleet Street while Brighton station will be snapped up for £200 instead of King's Cross.

More controversially, Embassy Court could end up as Old Kent Road and, to the horror of protesters, Ovingdean may yet be the best site for the water works.

Drivers may scoff if the Free Parking square makes it to the new edition - a picture of a clamped car might be better for a city that loves its controlled parking zones.

Winning Moves UK, which has the official licence from Monopoly owners Hasbro to make the regional editions, chose Brighton and Hove because of its striking landmarks and showbiz style.

They were impressed that celebrities such as Sir Paul McCartney, Fatboy Slim, Emma Bunton, Chris Eubank and Steve Coogan had chosen the city as their home.

Graham Barnes, of Winning Moves UK, said: "We do not have any games on the South Coast so we looked at Southampton, Portsmouth and Brighton and Hove. It was the showbusiness element that swung our decision.

"The game will reflect the essence and spirit of Brighton and Hove. It may well be that some of the homes of the rich and famous appear on the board but we're throwing the whole voting over to the people who know best - the great Brighton and Hove public."

Mayor David Watkins said: "I think it is a great idea and they picked the best place on the South Coast.

"But I would imagine the makers have a terrible job working out which landmarks to use as there are so many sites of historical importance here.

"They are probably going to have to bring out two boards to do it properly."

Council leader Ken Bodfish said: "The only problem is I don't think we have any Old Kent Roads as the whole place is marvellous.

"This once again proves the city features in more than just local people's lives and we are very pleased the makers have chosen us."

Monopoly expert Dr John Haigh, a reader of mathematics and statistics at Sussex University, published a book called Taking Chances four years ago.

He said: "Monopoly is a game almost entirely determined by chance but there are some tactics. For instance, the orange squares come out as the best value for money, with the greens being the worst and I would imagine the Brighton edition will keep the same colour scheme."

Mike Grabsky, of St Aubyn's, Hove, won the UK Monopoly championships in 1999. He said: "I've got 30 or 40 Monopoly boards from around the world so it would be really nice to play one featuring my home city."

Brighton and Hove Monopoly will be released at Christmas. To recommend your landmark, email brighton@gbpublicityltd.com
