Casino Royale earns more than the rest put together
Daniel Craig's “Casino Royale” took £8.5m in its second weekend, more than the rest of the top ten put together.
“Borat” followed the second with £1.5m. Sacha Baron Cohen's creation has made £21.2m in a month.
“The Santa Clause 3” came as No. three with takings of more than £1.2m, while comedy “Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny”, is No. fourth gathering £922,574.
According to BBC News, over just two weekends the new Bond has taken £27.9m, making it by far the most successful Bond at this stage.
“Jackass: Number Two” is No. 5, while Bollywood thriller “Dhoom 2” came just No. 6.
Falling from third position to position No.7 was 19th century magical thriller “The Prestige” while “Pan's Labyrinth”, a dark fantasy set in 1940's Spain, was new at No.8.
Down five positions at nine was dance-based romantic drama “Step Up” with horror flick Saw III rounding off the top ten.
Bond is to be glancing over his shoulder at the musical penguins of “Happy Feet” which has outsold “Casino Royale” in the US and which opens in the UK on 8 December.
