Charts

 * Bruno Brookes reveals the 600th UK No. 1 single on the Radio 1 Chart Show as China in Your Hand by T'Pau. To mark the musical milestone, over the next three weeks Radio 1 plays all 600 singles to have reached number one since the UK Singles Chart was launched in 1952.
 * T'Pau just beat George Harrison to the top, with Got My Mind Set On You at no.2, while the bee Gees You Win Again drops down from the top to no.3. (Listen to the Radio 1 Top 40 show here)
 * In the Albums Chart, George Michael has the highest new entry and is straight in at no.1 with Faith, again just beating a former Beatle Paul McCartney to the top as his latest compilation album All The Best enters at no.2. George Harrison enters the album chart at no.10 with Cloud Nine.
