Ashton Kutcher became the first person to top one million Twitter followers on Friday (and three days later is up to 1.23 million!), so it must be time for a quick look at our UK celebrity chart.

So what’s new.  Well Imogen Heap is new, although only because I forgot to include her – she has been on Twitter almost exactly a year and has added 100k followers in the past month, so my bad.

Neil Gaiman soars into the top three – and were it not for Stephen Fry I think we would talk a lot more about the way he uses the web.  Russell Brand is also up into the top five, now ahead of Jonathan Ross.

Finally keep an eye on Richard Bacon – at current rates of growth, he will be easing into the top five in a week or so.

As ever, please point out any errors or omissions – either comment here or tweet me on twitter.com/miketeasdale.
