Now that's what I call an overdue library CD!

It features Paul Weller's classic Wild Wood, a revival of Heaven 17's Temptation, Phil Collins's hit Both Sides Of The Story, and Deep by East 17.

The CD is one of more than a million books, music recordings and DVDs missing from the capital's libraries. A survey by the Evening Standard also found that Havering is still owed Approaching GCSE English and Work Out Maths GCSE, both lent in 1994.

Hounslow reported that the missing Now That's What I Call Music! 1993 CD was returned last year in an envelope from Aberdeenshire library. It had been lent 17 years ago.

The borough with the worst-offending borrowers was Southwark, with 180,934 overdue items. Redbridge was home to the four most overdue books, from May 20, 1986.

Last month, 1,011,568 items were overdue across 26 boroughs. In the 20 boroughs that itemised their overdue list, books made up 744,696 of the total, 22,958 were CDs and 28,149 were DVDs.
