Harrow band Scouting for Girls have proven they are top of the pops with their debut album.

The group's eponymous debut was today named the UK chart's tenth best-selling album of 2008,  by regulator the Official Charts Company.

Scouting for girls joined the Harrow Observer and our readers this year to bring a smile to ill children at Northwock Park Hospital as part of our annual Christmas Toy Appeal.
