Pixie Lott has topped the UK singles chart with her second single Boys and Girls.

She displaced Jay Z at the top of the chart to score her second number one, following on from her debut Mama Do.

In the album chart, 92-year-old Dame Vera Lynn became the oldest living artist to have a number one album with We'll Meet Again, according to the Official Charts Company.

Commenting on the feat she said: "I am extremely surprised and delighted, and a big 'thank you' to all my fans for putting me there."

The Beatles totally dominate the result of the chart, following the release of their re-mastered back catalogue.

Four out of the top ten albums belong to The Beatles, setting a record for most albums simultaneously held in the Top 10.

With 16 albums in the Top 60, they have also overtaken Elvis Presley's record for most albums simultaneously in the Top 60 by any act.

Presley had 14 albums in the Top 60 in 1977.
