Sam Smith's second album is powering towards the top spot after being certified silver in its first three days on sale.
The Thrill Of It All has shifted 60,028 so far to out-sell the rest of the Top 7 combined. A Love So Beautiful, which infuses the late Roy Orbison's vocals with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, is a new entry at No.2 with sales of 20,061.
Reigning No.1, Michael Ball & Alfie Boe's Together Again, dips to No.3 in the midweeks after 12,887 second week sales. George Michael's Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1 and Beautiful Trauma by Pink complete the Top 5.
Elsewhere, sales of Harry Styles' eponymous debut soared by 407.9% to leap 38-16 on the back of last week's BBC One special, Harry Styles At The BBC. Sam Smith's debut LP In The Lonely Hour also sees a significant sales spike of 128.2% to rise 21-19.
In the singles chart, Camila Cabello looks set for a second week at No.1 as Havana (20,922 sales) holds a healthy lead over Post Malone's Rockstar (14,123 sales). Sam Smith's Too Good At Goodbyes is at No.3 (13,169) followed by Rita Ora's Anywhere (No.4, 12,415) and Silence by Marshmello (No.5, 12,331). Smith has two other chart entries - Pray at No.27 and One Last Song at No.28.
Taylor Swift is the highest new entry at No.16 with her latest single Call It What You Want.
