Hello and welcome to this week’s Charts and That. There have been some serious changes to the charts this week. From Drake dropping to #10 in music to Far Cry 5 sitting atop the games chart it’s finally happened. Have a gander.

We’ll start with the music charts. Yes, Drake has dropped a whopping nine places since last week. Taking his place, we have These Days by Rudimental, Jess Glynne and Macklemore followed by George Ezra’s new tune, Paradise.

  1. These Days – Rudimental/Glynne/Macklemore
  2. Paradise – George Ezra
  3. Feel it Still – Portugal the Man
  4. Friends – Marshmello & Anne-Marie
  5. Freaky Friday – Lil Dicky Ft. Chris Brown
  6. Psycho – Post Malone Ft. TY Dolla Sign
  7. The Middle – Zedd/Maren Morris/Grey
  8. This is Me – Settle/The Greatest Showman
  9. Lullaby – Sigala & Paloma Faith
  10. God’s Plan – Drake

Games next, where we’re looking at essentially, a whole new list. Sea of Thieves, Far Cry 5 and A Way Out. Have a look. Also, maybe instead of a game trailer, we have this rather interesting look at how Sea of Thieves, possibly one of the most underwhelming games so far this year, may actually be an early access game in disguise.

  1. Far Cry 5
  2. FIFA 18
  3. Sea of Thieves
  4. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
  5. PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds
  6. Call of Duty: WWII
  7. A Way Out
  8. Assassin’s Creed Origins
  9. Forza Motorsport 7
  10. Grand Theft Auto

Lastly, movies, where not much has changed if we’re entirely honest. Peter Rabbit is still raking in the money, with Pacific Rim: Uprising following behind. Have a look.

  1. Peter Rabbit
  2. Pacific Rim: Uprising
  3. Black Panther
  4. Tomb Raider
  5. The Greatest Showman
  6. A Wrinkle in Time
  7. Unsane
  8. Blade Runner: The Final Cut
  9. Red Sparrow
  10. Game Night

And there we go. Join us next time where we’ll have more Charts and That.

  • 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 […]
