However an unofficial release featuring James Corden and Dizzee Rascal- titled Shout- still topped the UK charts. The promo for Greatest Day was filmed at Sarm Studios in west London, where the 1984 Band Aid single was also recorded. The single will not be released until nearer the tournament in June.
