Ed Sheeran has stayed at number one on the UK Record Store Chart for Christmas.

In a week when most of the previous Top 20 have been swapping places with each other, only re-entries from Royal Blood, Bette Midler and Elle Henderson represent any change as Sheeran lands another week at the summit with ‘x‘.




The UK Record Store Chart is shaped exclusively by sales registered at Britain’s leading independent music outlets and was launched in conjunction with Record Store Day in 2012.
