Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again has held on to the number 1 spot on the Official Film Chart, despite stiff opposition from Disney’s Christopher Robin and The Equalizer 2.

The Abba musical sequel was released on DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K Ultra HD back on 26 November, but it’s clearly proving to be the socking-filling film of choice as Christmas approaches.

Disney’s live action Winnie The Pooh film Christopher Robin came in to the chart at number 4, while Denzel Washington’s first ever sequel The Equalizer 2 came in at 3.
