The Weekend Round-up
The Bond juggernaut marches on as SPECTRE held on to the top spot. In its third weekend it banked £7.8m, down 40% from last weekend, and now sits on a huge £77.6m.

Last week was telling for the cinema industry. Two of this year’s most anticipated films broke records. SPECTRE finally hit the big screen with the film breaking the record for the biggest opening seven day gross in history, with £41.3m. That wasn’t from the full week either, with the first public screenings on the opening day not starting until 7.30pm after the commencement of the world premiere. The previous record holder, Bond’s last outing in Skyfall, could only manage a paltry £37.3m in a full seven days. Brand Bond continues to launch in cinema with spectacular results.
