TOP TEN

Takings for the weekend of January 20-22

As far as the meeja are concerned, it's all about awards at this time of year. But the only nominees taking any money at the moment are The Iron lady and The Artist. The latter's relatively lowly chart position is explained by the fact that it's still showing on around a quarter of the number screens hogged by Spielberg's chart-topper War Horse (pictured). But the French silent movie boasts the second highest screen average of any film on release. Steven Soderbergh's enjoyable ass-whupper Haywire beat the umpteenth Underworld flick, Underworld: Awakening. J. Edgar, meanwhile, failed to chart, as did Madonna's woeful W.E., despite all that hype. But Madge's ex-hubby Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows continues to do remarkably well, having seen off both Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

1. War Horse £3,202,493 (£9,639,624, 2 weeks)

2. Haywire £1,197,866 (new release)

3. Underworld: Awakening £1,114,327 (new release)

4. Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows £956,434 (£24,627,233, 6 weeks)

5. The Iron Lady £949,517 (£7,162,492, 3 weeks)

6. The Sitter £910,382 (new release)

7. Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol £815,330 (£16,686,503, 4 weeks)

8. The Artist £770,403 (£3,205,883, 4 weeks)

9. Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked £568,758 (£13,111,689, 6 weeks)
