Interstellar leads close race for Number 1 on the Official Video Chart
An intergalactic space hero and our favourite bear from Peru are squaring up for what is looking like being a close battle for the Number 1 spot in this week’s Official Video Chart.
This week’s big new release, Interstellar - the sci-fi epic starring Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway - is currently sitting at No. 1 with 136,000 sales after half a week’s trade.
Only 20,000 sales separate the space epic from last week's Number 1, Paddington. With strong second week sales and three chart days remaining, there’s a good chance it could catch up over the bank holiday weekend. The title is currently on course for Number 2 this Sunday with 115,000 sales.
Elsewhere, Penguins of Madagascar is set to be the second-highest new entry in the Official Video Chart Top 10, currently at Number 3 in the midweek rundown with 30,000 sales, while new release Horrible Bosses 2 is on course to enter at Number 6. Should it remain at its current position, it will surpass its first instalment, which landed at Number 9 on the tally in November 2011.
