Despite an array of new challengers, the hit movie album's enduring appeal kept it at the top for a fourteenth non-consecutive week.

Closest was US rapper J Cole, who scores a second Top 10 and a new personal best with KOD at 2, while UK country duo The Shires settle for a new entry at 3 with third album Accidentally on Purpose.
