UK charts update: Amy Winehouse and Olly Murs are Number One

  • December 12, 2011
  • Brad O'Mance

Amy Winehouse's posthum­ous col­lec­tion of pre­vi­ously unheard material, 'Lioness: Hidden Treasures', has entered the UK charts at Number One, selling 194,000 copies.

A pound from every album sale is going to a found­a­tion set up in Amy's honour.

In a press statement her mum Janis said: “It’s such amazing news that Amy’s album has gone to Number One, and just goes to show what she still means to people. It’s espe­cially good for the found­a­tion and knowing that every sale will go to help a deserving cause makes the news all the more special."

On the singles chart, perpetual hat­botherer and all-round twat Olly Murs has climbed one place to Number One with the excru­ci­at­ing 'Dance With Me Tonight'.
