Scrooge topples Jackson at box office


12 November 2009

Disney's A Christmas Carol has knocked Michael Jackson's This Is It off the top spot at the UK box office.

The 3D animated retelling of the classic Charles Dickens novel took nearly £2 million in its opening weekend.

It ended the reign of This Is It, which has taken £8 million in two weeks.

Pixar smash Up was number three, while The Men Who Stare At Goats and paranormal thriller The Fourth Kind rounded out the top five.

Megan Fox's horror tale Jennifer's Body only managed to scrape to number seven.
