The boy band Westlife has clinched the prized Christmas number one charts slots in both Ireland and Britain.
The five-member Irish band last night knocked Sir Cliff Richard from the top of the UK charts with their double A-side single, I Have A Dream/Seasons in the Sun.
They were already in number one position in the Irish Christmas singles chart.
Westlife, managed by Louis Walsh and Ronan Keating of Boyzone, are used to topping the charts.
They are only the second act to go straight to number one in the British charts with their first four singles in the week they were released.
Their song Flying Without Wings was voted Record Of The Year in a national TV poll in Britain last weekend.
Band member, Kian Egan, said 1999 had been a great year for Westlife and the Christmas number one slot was "the icing on the cake". "It's almost too good to believe," he said.
The songs on Westlife's single were both hits in the 1970s. Seasons in the Sun was a chart-topper for the Canadian singer, Terry Jacks, while I Have a Dream was a hit for the four member Swedish band, ABBA.
Westlife fended off competition for top of the British singles charts from Sir Cliff, who has been at number one for three weeks with The Millennium Prayer.
A spokeswoman for the band's record company, RCA, said it was very proud and happy for the band.
