A Top 40 Overall Singles Sales Chart of 2008 has just been broadcast by TMF. But surely the sales year hasn't finished yet. I know no sales chart is broadcast this Sunday, but I always assumed that the year end chart would include the final week's sales.

 

So is TMF using an advance version that will change for Radio 1 this Sunday?

 

Or has the year end chart never included the final week?

Is Alexandra Burke #1 or X Factor Finalists, if its the X Factor lot, than there is still another week to add to this year's chart.

Did you write it down, Paul? If so I`ll tell you when it was compiled. Radio One`s biggest sellers of the year, cuts off tonight.

I believe that this chart has sales from a date between weeks 49 and 50, that is, 6th to 13th December [between chart dates w/e 13th December and 20th December]. So it is missing two to three weeks sales from 2008.
