‘Barbie’ Leads UK Home Entertainment Charts
Greta Gerwig’s Barbie topped the UK’s home entertainment charts in 2023 with 700k sales across platforms, according to figures released by the British Association for Screen Entertainment (BASE) and Official Charts Company (OCC). The figures state the value of the UK Home Entertainment Category rose to £4.9bn in 2023. The rise was driven by the ongoing surge in consumer uptake of subscription services, with over 56 million subscriptions in 2023, a 5.4% year-on-year rise. Elsewhere in the report, BASE and OCC said Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer was the biggest release on Blu-ray in the UK in 2023, with a value of £1.1m15 on Blu-ray alone.
