Justin Timberlake's album '20/20 Experience', his first in seven years, is topping the UK album charts and is expected to do the same when the Billboard charts reveal their own US album list later this week.

Billboard reports that 'The 20/20 Experience was' the fastest-selling title of the year when debuting at number one in the UK, notching up sales of around 106,000 copies in its first week.

The album has pushed David Bowie's own comeback 'The Next Day down to second spot (it sold 35,000 copies after selling 91,000 the previous week.)

It's the most successful first week on the UK albums chart Timberlake's ever had, and it barnstorming success looks set to roll over back to his native America.
