There are big changes at the head of the league table of UK magazines ranked by overall circulationwith the trio of BSkyB customer magazines dropping out of the list.
They did hold the top three places, but in February BSkyB announced that the Sky Movies and Sky Sports magazines were being dropped and that flagship title Sky Magazine was going from monthly to quarterly.
This left the free customer magazine for supermarket Asda at 1,980,740 copies as the UK magazine with the biggest overall circulation,
Other free magazines on the list include: Tesco Magazine, Morrisons, Sense, Birds, John Lewis Edition, ASOS.com, Stylist, electric! and Emma’s Diary Pregnancy Guide.
