Take That's multi-million selling LP Progress has made a triumphant return to the top of the UK album chart.
The 'Love Love' boyband's collection soared ten places to pole position following the release of eight-track EP Progressed this week, knocking previous champions Arctic Monkeys down to four with Suck It And See.
The original album spent six consecutive week at number one last year to become 2010's biggest seller. Progress has sold 2.8 million copies since its release in November.
Outside the top five, folk rock legend Paul Simon scores the highest new entry of the week and his 14th solo top 40 album with So Beautiful Or So What at six.
Meanwhile, Eminem and Royce Da 5'9" double act Bad Meets Evil land one spot behind with their sophomore LP Hell - The Sequel. The pair formed back in 1997 before the 'Real Slim Shady' rapper achieved global success with his solo career.
At the back end of the Top 10 come two rising favourites in the shape of Caro Emerald's Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor, up to eight from 17, and Electric Light Orchestra, who speed 13 places from last week's 23 with greatest hits record All Over The World.
Further down the double digits, 11-year-old America's Got Talent star Jackie Evancho plummets ten spots to 14 with Dream With Me, just ahead of late jazz singer Frankie Laine's Hits collection, a new arrival at 16.
Finally, Cee Lo Green and Lady GaGa manage to scrape back into the upper half of the chart with their critically-acclaimed and mega-selling albums The Lady Killer and The Fame, which rise seven and five entries respectively to 19 and 20.

Beyoncé has landed straight at the top of the UK album chart with her latest solo effort '4'.
The 'Run The World (Girls)' singer was boosted to pole position following her phenomenally well-received headline slot at last weekend's Glastonbury festival.
4 is Beyoncé's second number one solo LP after her debut Dangerously In Love, which topped the rankings in 2003. She previously reached the peak of the album chart in 2001 with her former girl group Destiny's Child and their third studio record Survivor.
The 29-year-old has also seen her 2008 album I Am...Sasha Fierce shoot to 38 from last week's 127 off the back of her Glastonbury performance.
Beyoncé's arrival pushes former chart champions Born This Way by Lady GaGa and Progress by Take That down to three and four, where they become sandwiched between Adele's 21 and 19 records at two and five respectively.
The so-called "Glastonbury effect" continues outside the top five with Jessie J racing from 11 to six with Who You Are, as her fellow performers Biffy Clyro and Kaiser Chiefs score new entries with Revolutions/Live At Wembley and The Future Is Medieval at nine and ten.
Also reaping the rewards of an appearance at the legendary event are Chase & Status and Cee Lo Green, who shoot five and six places respectively to 12 and 13 with No More Idols and The Lady Killer, while Stevie Nicks enters just behind them at 14 with her seventh studio album In Your Dreams.
By contrast, Bon Iver's self-titled LP and Suck It And See by the Arctic Monkeys both fall to the double digits, after dropping 11 and ten places to 15 and 16, an inch ahead of Mumford & Sons and Noah & The Whale, the final two Glastonbury performers in this week's top 20.
The 'Little Lion Man' singers are up nine spots to 17 with Sigh No More, while Noah And The Whale finish in 20th place after settling at 29 last Sunday.

DJ Fresh, and Kosheen star Sian Evans have stormed to the top of the UK singles chart with 'Louder'.
The 34-year-old drum and bass artist - real name Daniel Stein - saw his track hit pole position after selling over 140,000 copies in just seven days. The figure is more than double that of this week's runner-up, 'How We Roll' by Loick Essien.
'Louder' becomes the second-fastest selling single of 2011 after Bruno Mars's former number one 'Grenade', which shifted in excess of 149,000 copies in January.
Beyond the new entries is a major top five shake-up, as Ed Sheeran forces his way to three from last week's six with 'The A Team', Example slips from the runner-up spot to four with 'Changed The Way You Kissed Me' and previous number one 'Don't Wanna Go Home' by Jason Derülo crashes down to five.
Beyoncé, Calvin Harris and Pitbull, meanwhile, fall three apiece to occupy spots six to eight with respective tracks 'Best Thing I Never Have', 'Bounce' and 'Give Me Everything'.
In the double digits, Lady GaGa slips down to 11 from last week's seven with 'The Edge Of Glory', as her fellow album chart dominator Adele races towards the best-sellers with 'Set Fire To The Rain', which is up nine spots to 12.
Elsewhere, Coldplay's brief return to the Top 10 comes to an end as the buzz surrounding their Glastonbury appearance finally starts to subside. Their comeback track 'Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall' is down four to 14.
At 16 this week is Vato Gonzalez and 'Badman Riddim (Jump)', down five from last Sunday's 11, while the team-up of David Guetta, Nicki Minaj and Flo Rida settle in next door after climbing nine places to 17 with 'Where Them Girls At?'.
Finally, Nicole Scherzinger and 50 Cent trip four entries to 19 with 'Right There' and Aloe Blacc completes the top 20 with 'I Need A Dollar', which last week finished in 13th place.

The week's highest new entry belongs to legendary singer Beverley Knight and Soul UK at 13, as Disney Channel favourite Selena Gomez makes a respectable debut just behind with her band The Scene. Their third studio album When The Sun Goes Down is today's 15.
Finally, Chris Brown scales six to 16 with F.A.M.E. and Lady GaGa zooms from 23 to 18 with her debut album The Fame, which is now in its 130th week on the chart.

The four-piece boyband collected the biggest first-week sales of their career after their latest release shifted 117,000 copies in just seven days.
The group first topped the chart with their debut record 'All Time Low' last July and have peaked within the top three with all but one of their first five singles.
Last week's number one 'Louder' by DJ Fresh and Sian Evans slips to the runner-up spot, as Ed Sheeran's 'The A Team', a climbing Beyoncé and 'Best Thing I Never Had' and last week's second place finisher 'How We Roll' by Loick Essien round up the top five.
Elsewhere, Example stumbles three to seven with 'Changed The Way You Kissed Me', while Adele and Nicki Minaj edge ever-closer to the Top 10 with 'Set Fire To The Rain' and 'Super Bass', up another spot each to 11 and 12 respectively.
Their climb bumps Lady GaGa further down the chart to 13 with 'The Edge Of Glory', but the biggest loss in the top 20 belongs to Alexandra Stan and 'Mr Saxobeat', which is down to 15 from last week's ten.
New arrivals 'Little Bad Girl' by David Guetta and 'Love How It Hurts' by Scouting For Girls follow behind at 16 and 17.

Adele has made a sensational return to the top of the UK album chart with 21.
The 'Someone Like You' singer notched up a 17th Sunday at number one with her sophomore record, which was first released 25 weeks ago and has never finished lower than two on the rankings.
Adele's climb sends last week's chart victor 4 by Beyoncé into the runner-up spot, while Adele's 2008 debut 19 follows its successor up the digits to settle in at three.
The top five is rounded out by another former chart topper in the shape of Lady GaGa's Born This Way and a new entry from indie band The Horrors, entitled Skying.
Past number ones also fill four of the five remaining spots in the Top 10, with the biggest shake-ups belonging to Wasting Light by the Foo Fighters, up four to eight, and Take That's Progress, which is down to nine from last week's five.
Elsewhere, Cee Lo Green and Jessie J slip out from the biggest sellers with their LPs The Lady Killer and Who You Are, down three apiece to 12 and 13 respectively. Entering just one spot behind them are Nickelodeon boyband Big Time Rush, who score the week's second highest new entry with their debut album BTR.
Lower down the numbers sees two big re-entries from David Guetta's One Love, which is at 17 after 92 weeks on the chart, and Andrea Bocelli's best-of collection Vivere, propelled back to 19 in its 109th week of release by the tenor's performance on the Popstar to Operastar final last Sunday.
The top 20 is completed by the seventh studio album from US rockers Incubus If Not Now, When?, a brand new entry this week.
