New entries and high climbers

The highest new entry on the chart as of today’s midweek sales flash is Series Three of Broadchurch at Number 6, while Canadian horror film The Void also has its sights set on the Top 10 and currently occupies the Number 10 slot.

A Street Cat Named Bob is predicted to rise 10 places to Number 14 this week, ahead of Ant-Man, a five spot climber to Number 20. Behind that is a new entry for Tom Getty’s The Patriot (24), which sits just ahead of Thor: The Dark World, which vaults 16 placings to 28; will it return to the Top 40 come Sunday however?

Finally, there are another three potential new entries from releases that hit the market a few days back on Monday: Jurassic Prey (32), Phantasm I-IV (34), and Deadline Gallipoli (40).
