Ed Sheeran’s Shape Of You returns to Number 1 as his arena tour sweeps the UK

Ed Sheeran took a week off from dominating the Official Singles Chart last week, but he has climbed back up to the top spot today after just seven days away.

Shape Of You knocks Harry Styles’ Sign Of The Times from the peak to log a 14^th week at the top. When it comes to non-consecutive chart toppers, only Frankie Laine’s I Believe has achieved more weeks at Number 1; that track spent 18 weeks at Number 1 over three stints back in 1953.

Clean Bandit and Zara Larsson’s Symphony hops one spot to Number 2, a new peak for the single. Ed’s back again with Galway Girl at 3, ahead of Harry Styles who tumbles to Number 4 with Sign Of The Times. Coincidentally, the last one-week reign at Number 1 was Harry’s fellow One Direction bandmate Zayn with debut single Pillowtalk in February 2016.
