Elvis Presley's current run of weekly appearances in the top ten on the UK singles sales charts wraps up with A Little Less Conversation (JXL Remix) hitting #3. This is the result of a special promotion by BMG-UK releasing each week special reissues of Elvis singles that hit #1 in the UK the first time around. A tally of the UK singles chart results follows and therefore a list of all of Elvis #1 hits in the UK ...

All Shook Up (*)
Jailhouse Rock (#1)
One Night (#1)
A Fool Such As I (#2)
It's Now Or Never (#1)
Are You Lonesome Tonight (#2)
Wooden Heart (#2)
Surrender (#2)
His Latest Flame (#3)
Rock-A-Hula Baby (#3)
Good Luck Charm (#2)
She's Not You (#3)
Return To Sender (#5)
Devil In Disguise (#2)
Crying In The Chapel (#2)
The Wonder Of You (#4)
Way Down (#2)
A Little Less Conversation (#3)

The first single All Shook Up wasn't eligible to chart due to the addition of the collectors box.
