Adele has sold about 3,283,400 there.
And still selling 25k + per week.
They start play there the SFTTR video [the live form the DVD], which gives more promo.
She will eneter the top 10 best sellling albums in the UK no doubt.
I don't know where though..
Though in years to come, she might be able to bee in the top 3..
