Miley Cyrus has got herself another UK Number 1! Climbing 1 from last week's Number 2, 'Flowers' becomes Miley's 5th UK Number 1 following 'We Can't Stop', 'Nothing Breaks Like A Heart', 'Wrecking Ball' and 'Midnight Sky'. Congratulations Miley!
Miley fought off huge competition from Joel Corry and Tom Grennan's 'Lionheart (Fearless)', which climbs 2 to re-peak at Number 2. Joel and Tom's hit has now been in the Top 10 for 9 weeks. Can it make it a perfect 10 next week, and finally get that Number 1?
Elsewhere in the Top 10, Mimi Webb's 'Red Flags' is looking to be another huge success for Mimi. The new single from debut album 'Amelia' climbs a huge 32 places to Number 4.
Previous Number 1, 'Made You Look' by Meghan Trainor is back into the Top 10, increasing an equally impressive 15 places to Number 5.
