The Greatest Showman remains at the summit for the seventh week running, while Ed Sheeran – who missed out on a host of awards the Brits – stays in second with his record-breaking third album, Divide.
Drake’s God’s Plan is top of the single’s charts for the fifth straight week as it enjoyed its best streaming performance yet.
Some 7.6 million plays of God’s Plan were recorded in the UK across the past seven days in the wake of the official music video release.
Rudimental’s These Days is at number two while Dua Lipa’s IDGAF lifts to number three and Kendrick Lamar’s Black Panther track All The Stars with SZA rockets to number five.
