'Back To Bedlam' beats off competition from other top albums...

James Blunt's 'Back To Bedlam' has been named as the biggest-selling album of the last decade. According to statistics from the Official Charts Company, the 2005 album beat Dido's equally thrilling 'No Angel' into second place.

Amy Winehouse's 2006 entry 'Back To Black' was third, while X-Factor winner Leona Lewis was number four with 2007's 'Spirit'. David Gray rounded off the top five with his 2000 effort, 'White Ladder'.

But it wasn't all doom and gloom - at number six was The Beatles' '1' compilation, which made the top spot in the US chart.
