With the U.K. singles chart remaining rather unchanged and snoozy this week (yay Mini Viva!), let's instead turn to the album chart, where Dame Vera Lynn is #1 with a collection of her most-cherished wartime standards, Celebration.

Wait—what's that? It's actually Madonna? Ah, it's all making sense now.
The U.K. Top 10:
