John Bishop DVD remains atop charts

John Bishop has the bestselling stand-up DVD for the second week running.

  1. (1) John Bishop: Elvis Has Left The Building
  2. (new) Kevin Bridges: The Story So Far Live
  3. (3) Billy Connolly: Live In London 2010
  4. (2) Frankie Boyle: If I Could Reach Out Through Your TV and Strangle You I Would
