Clean Bandit are rocking their way towards a third week at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart, but have a big mannequin challenge ahead of them to hold onto the top spot.

Rockabye, featuring Sean Paul and Anne-Marie is 7,000 combined chart sales ahead of its nearest rival, Black Beatles by Rae Sremmurd in today's Update, but can Clean Bandit hold onto their lead all week? Black Beatles, which features Gucci Mane, has risen two places since last Friday's chart, and has major momentum due to its use in many #mannequinchallenge videos.

It's a bit late for Craig David to have his second top 20 of 2015 isn't it?
