The Flood single is now out 8th Nov. with the album Progress on 15th. So no big first week album battle with JLS. Westlife release 22nd with JLS.

I thought they were joking when they said this on Radio 1 this morning.

Less time to wait now.

Does anyone else think that they could easily hold off JLS and Westlife for two consecutive weeks at number one?

Yes I think they can. So this week KOL again, then I think they'll get a 3rd week unless Bon Jovi's GH or Rumer unseats them. Then SuBo a week then Take That. Anyone's guess after that as Duffy and BEP are both out 29th. I think the Peas will beat Duffy.
At any other time of year Pink's GH, 22nd, would have been a first week No.1 but too much competition in Nov. Still a big seller I think though.
