GENNARO CASTALDO WATCH

Blimey... Charlotte Church's second pop single limps in at number ten - bested even by Tatu's lukewarm comeback. Even before the official chart was announced, icWales was fearing that the rundown would give Ms Church a bloody nose. Who could explain the situation? Step forward, HMV's Gennaro Castaldo - the man of a million insights. Indeed, as you'll note, he's gone beyond being a mere spokesperson into something altogether more fabulous:

HMV guru Gennaro Castaldo said: "Charlotte could make the step into the Top 10 but I can't see her getting into the Top 5."

What insights! Truly he must have second sight. Or access to the prechart release data, of course.
