Adele scores another bumper sales week with '25'

After a record breaking week last Friday, Adele’s '25' enjoys another bumper sales week to land a second week at No.1 on the Official Albums Chart.

The singer’s third album shifted another 439,000 copies this week, outselling the rest of the Top 10 combined. Earlier this week, Official Charts confirmed that '25' was the fastest million-selling album in the UK chart history, achieving the feat in just 10 days. 

Meanwhile, Elvis Presley’s 'If I Can Dream' album has another strong sales week (96,000 combined sales) to hold at No.2, and Justin Bieber’s 'Purpose' is at 3.

Rounding off this week’s Top 5 are Little Mix, who jump two places to No.4 with 'Get Weird', and Jess Glynne’s 'I Cry When I Laugh' is up 3 to No.5. This week’s highest new entry goes to The Vamps, who debut at No.10 with their second album 'Wake Up', and The Corrs are new at No.11 with their first album in 10 years, 'White Light'.

Classical quartet Il Divo notch up their tenth Top 40 album with 'Amor & Passion', Michael Buble’s 'Christmas' album is up seven places to No.19, and The Overtones’ 'Good Ol’ Fashioned Christmas' enters at No.24. Finally, Florence + The Machine’s 'How Big How Blue How Beautiful' re-enters the Top 40 at 34, and Simply Red scores his 17th Top 40 album today with 'Big Love' (40).
