The amnesiac adventures of superspy Jason Bourne have proved irresistible to UK film-goers, with the third in the popular series racing to the top of the box office. The Bourne Ultimatum took an impressive £5.3 million in its opening weekend top cruise to number one, while the Simpsons held onto the second spot.

The summer’s other threequel Rush Hour 3 sneaked in at number three, while Bratz: The Movie and Transformers rounded out the top five.
