Queen's first Greatest Hits album has topped a rundown of the UK's Top 100 best sellers, compiled by the Official Charts company for cable channel VH1.
The album, first released in 1981, has sold 5,407,587 copies - 600,000 more than its nearest rival, the Beatles' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Pop star Robbie Williams has the most albums in the chart with six.

But the Rolling Stones, Sting, the Sex Pistols and Bob Dylan are among those without a single entry to their names.

Mancunian rockers Oasis, singer Michael Jackson and Canadian star Celine Dion each have three entries in the chart, which includes compilations and original soundtracks.

Jason Donovan - currently appearing in ITV1's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! - has the country's 100th best seller with his 1989 debut, 10 Good Reasons.

Relative newcomers James Blunt and David Gray appear at 19 and 20 respectively, while Dido's first and second albums chart at 15 and 22.
