Top albums of the week:

1) Game of Thrones - 'For The Throne' (Debut)
2) Dave - 'PSYCHODRAMA' (-1)

4) ScHoolboy Q - 'CrasH Talk' (Debut)

'Lesley' gets an 8th consecutive week atop the singles chart this week, now putting it just 1 week short of the longest consecutive run at #1 ever. 'God is a woman' managed 10 weeks in total, 9 of which were consecutive, while 'Havana' also reached 8 weeks in total, though only 4 were consecutive while all 8 of 'Lesley's have been consecutive. Over on the ablums chart, 'PSYCHODRAMA' wasn't so lucky. After 7 consecutive weeks at #1, it gets dethroned this week by 'For The Throne', the 'Game of Thrones' album. ScHoolboy Q's 'CrasH Talk' also debuts at #4. Back on the singles chart, 'Location' spends a 5th consecutive week at #2 behind 'Lesley', extending its record as the longest-running #2 behind the same track, and giving Dave a 6th week in total as his own runner-up.

At #3 is the highest climber of the week, as 'Power is Power' climbs 7 places, the highest track from 'For The Throne', while just 1 place below at #4 is the highest debut: Ellie Goulding's 'Hollow Crown', also from 'For The Throne'. There are 2 more debuts in the Top 10, 'Kingdom of One' by Maren Morris at #8 and 'Wolf at Your Door' by Chloe x Halle at #10, both of which are from 'For The Throne'. In total, the album has 11 tracks on the chart at #3, #4, #8, #10, #18, #19, #28, #29, #37, #39 & #40, making it the 11th album to have 10 or more simultaneous entries. The highest non-'For The Throne' debut comes from Zara Larsson as 'WOW' debuts at #14, following 'Don't Worry Bout Me' climbing into the Top 10 last week.

Stormzy makes a return with 'Vossi Bop', new at #22, his 11th chart entry, while Bastille debut at #24 with 'Doom Days'. 'Jenny of Oldstones' climbs 2 places to reach a new peak of #30 following its #32 debut last week (it's also the 12th 'Game of Thrones' track on this chart, though it isn't on the 'For The Throne' album), and Not3s debuts at #33 with 'Wanting'. It's Not3s' 9th chart entry. The Chainsmokers make another debut just 1 place below at #34 with 'Do You Mean' featuring Ty Dolla $ign & bülow, Martin Garrix debuts at #35 with 'Summer Days', and, lastly, DJ Snake debuts at #38 with 'Enzo', featuring an impressive posse of rappers.
