October 10, 201014 yr Author a-ha also made #5 with their last studio album Foot Of The Mountain. I'd forgotten it had got so high so I only used the Virgin book. *Slaps wrists*
October 10, 201014 yr Suedehead2 - the Tinie Tempah Album is just called 'Disc-Overy' - there is no 'The' in the Title. As Tinie Tempah has 2 Top 5 Singles, & the No.1 Album, in the latest UK Charts, I decided to check how many times this has been achieved since the Album Chart began. (July 28th 1956). To my surprise, I found that Tinie Tempah is only the FOURTH Act to achieve it. Also, that it is only the 16th Chart Week that it has been achieved in. John Lennon managed it 9 times - 8 Weeks in The Beatles, & 1 Week as John Lennon. The Shadows now have their Cliff Richard & The Shadows Singles, & Albums, added to their Statistics. As a result of this, they were the 1st Act to achieve it - for a Total of 6 Weeks. 2 TOP 5 SINGLES & THE NUMBER 1 ALBUM - IN THE SAME WEEK (BY THE SAME ACT) 1) THE SHADOWS W/E 17th January to W/E 31st January 1963 (3 WEEKS) 2 TOP 5 SINGLES (3 WEEKS) ‘The Next Time/Bachelor Boy’ - No.1 - No.2 - No.2 - Cliff Richard & The Shadows ‘Dance On!’ - No.2 - No.1 - No.4 - The Shadows No.1 ALBUM (2 WEEKS) W/E 17th & 24th January 1963 (2 WEEKS) ‘Out Of The Shadows’ - No.1 - No.1 - The Shadows W/E 31st January 1963 (1 WEEK) No.1 ALBUM (1 WEEK) ‘Summer Holiday’ (Soundtrack) - No.1 - Cliff Richard & The Shadows @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 2) THE SHADOWS W/E 21st March to 4th April 1963 (3 WEEKS) 2 TOP 5 SINGLES (3 WEEKS) ‘Summer Holiday’ - No.1 - No.2 - No.1 - Cliff Richard & The Shadows ‘Foot Tapper’ - No.2 - No.1 - No.4 - The Shadows No.1 ALBUM (3 WEEKS) W/E 21st March to 4th April 1963 (3 WEEKS) ‘Summer Holiday’ (Soundtrack) - No.1 - No.1 - No.1 - Cliff Richard & The Shadows @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 3) THE BEATLES W/E 12th December 1963 to W/E 16th January 1964 (6 WEEKS) 2 TOP 5 SINGLES (6 WEEKS) ‘I Want To Hold Your Hand’ - No.1 - No.1 - No.1 - No.1 - No.1 - No.2 ‘She Loves You’ - No.2 - No.2 - No.2 - No.3 - No.5 - No.5 No.1 ALBUM (6 WEEKS) ‘With The Beatles’ - No.1 - No.1 - No.1 - No.1 - No.1 - No.1 @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 4) THE BEATLES W/E 20th December to 27th December 1967 (2 WEEKS) 2 TOP 5 SINGLES (2 WEEKS) ‘Hello Goodbye’ - No.1 - No.1 ‘Magical Mystery Tour (EP) - No.3 - No.2 No.1 ALBUM (2 WEEKS) ‘Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ - No.1 - No.1 @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 5) JOHN LENNON W/E 7th February 1981 (1 WEEK) 2 TOP 5 SINGLES (1 WEEK) ‘Woman’ - No.1 ‘Imagine’ - No.4 No.1 ALBUM (1 WEEK) ‘Double Fantasy’ - No.1 - John Lennon & Yoko Ono @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 6) TINIE TEMPAH W/E 16th October 2010 (1 WEEK) 2 TOP 5 SINGLES (1 WEEK) ‘Written In The Stars’ - No.3 - Tinie Tempah Feat.

October 10, 201014 yr This week finally sees a former number one leaving the top 40 with Ne-Yo and Roll Deep dropping out so we still have 12 songs which have peaked at number one. That number should drop next week as Katy Perry and Roll Deep occupy the bottom two places. Another former number one, Airplanes by B.O.B and Hayley Williams chalks up a 19th week in the chart. Did Roll Deep drop out or not?! :P

October 10, 201014 yr Author Thanks for the extra info zeus. So only the Beatles have done that particular treble in its purest form.
October 10, 201014 yr Thanks for the extra info zeus. So only the Beatles have done that particular treble in its purest form. Yes, that's correct. Also - Tinie Tempah looks like being the only Act, of the 4, to NOT have the No.1 Single, at some stage during the 'Feat'. He's unlikely to manage 2 Singles in the Top 5 next Week, & he may not have the No.1 Album, either.
October 12, 201014 yr Not necessarily the right thread for this but probably the best of those that exist already.. Are Robson & Jerome the only act that have had two or more no. 1's and no other charting singles? EDIT: Bob The Builder has two no. 1's but no other Top 75 hits Edited October 12, 201014 yr by SKOB
