Sande sets sales record

Emeli Sande's appearances at the Olympic opening and closing ceremonies have helped her overtake Adele with the biggest selling album of the year so far.

Her debut release, Our Version Of Events, saw its sales swell by one-third during London 2012, compared to the previous month.

Sande, 25, has now surpassed Adele's record-breaking 21, selling 3200 more copies during 2012, according to new figures from the Official Charts Company.
