It’s three sweet weeks at Number 1 for Elf as the film
continues to prove itself as the UK’s festive favourite ahead of Christmas
celebrations next week.
With 75% of its tally made up of digital sales,
Elf finishes comfortably ahead of its closest competition
and last week’s runner-up, Last Christmas (2), which is this
week’s biggest seller on DVD and Blu-ray. Fellow festive films also
holding firm to their places are non-movers The Grinch (3)
and Love Actually (4).
Kevin McAllister sneaks up one place to Number 5 in
Home Alone, The Polar Express trundles up one to Number 6, and
Mulan
is down two places to 7. Brian Henson’s 1992 hit
The Muppet Christmas Carol makes its merry way all the way
to Number 8, reaching a brand-new peak and entering the Top 10 for the
first time ever.
Home Alone 2: Lost In New York also flies up 20 places into
the Top 10 for the first time, landing a new high position of Number 9.
Finally, Frozen 2 climbs three places to round off this
week’s countdown at Number 10.
On this week’s Official Film Chart, take a look at sci-fi martial arts
adventure Jiu Jitsu, starring Alain Moussi and Nicolas Cage. Adapted from the
popular 2017 comic book, the film is available to download and keep from
December 21st.
