Hello there and welcome to another Charts and That. This week, Detroit Become Human tops games charts, Solo stomps out Deadpool 2 and Dua Lipa. Because nothing ever changes. Let’s have a look at this week’s lists, shall we?

Starting with games, we have Undead Labs’ State of Decay 2 being pushed to second, to make way for David Cage’s latest bore-fest of a game Detroit: Become Human. God of War has been pushed into fifth place, breaking it’s near month-long streak at the top. Have a look at the list:

  1. Detroit Become Human
  2. State of Decay 2
  3. Dark Souls Remastered
  4. FIFA 18
  5. God of War
  6. Far Cry 5
  7. Overwatch
  8. Destiny 2
  9. Fallout 4
  10. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

Next up, movies, where Solo has swooped that top spot away from Deadpool 2. Fans are divided on the movie, with some saying this wasn’t a story worth telling about our favourite Star Wars smuggler. Avengers is still clinging onto third place, raking in £1,215,206 just last week. Take a look.

  1. Solo: A Star Wars Story
  2. Deadpool 2
  3. Avengers: Infinity War
  4. Sherlock Gnomes
  5. Show Dogs
  6. I Feel Pretty
  7. Blade Runner: The Final Cut
  8. On Chesli Beach
  9. Peter Rabbit
  10. Life of the Party

Lastly, music. The usual suspects, including Dua Lipa, Ariana, Post Malone, you know the drill. Queue the music.

  1. One Kiss – Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa
  2. Nice for What – Drake
  3. No Tears Left to Cry – Ariana Grande
  4. 2002 – Anne-Marie
  5. Answerphone – Banx & Ranx/Ella Eyre/Bane
  6. I’ll Be There – Jess Glynne
  7. Flames – David Guetta ft. Sia
  8. Paradise – George Ezra
  9. This is America – Childish Gambino
  10. Better Now – Post Malone

  • Food Food Review: Las Iguanas, Newcastle
    4/5 If you love a good theme, Las Iguanas is a restaurant you might like to try. The Latin American-style chain has restaurants all over the country, but I recently popped into the one on Grey Street just down from the Theatre Royal. As always, the restaurant itself is pristine and the atmosphere is super […]

  • Books Book Review: 1984 by George Orwell
    1/5 1984 is always cited as one of the best books ever written. It’s supposed to be intelligent, sharp and profound. Instead, I found it to be dull, rambling and unremarkable. Oh, and rampantly sexist. George Orwell was clever – I’ve read his essays and I like them. But 1984? It was hard to believe […]
