James Bond film Spectre has held on to the top spot at the North American box office in its second week of release.
The 24th film in the 007 franchise, starring Daniel Craig, made $35.4m between Friday and Sunday, according to estimates.
The Peanuts Movie held firm at number two, with takings of $24.2m. But the Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt drama By the Sea failed to make a splash, taking just $95,440 at 10 screens.
Spectre's takings fell 50% in its second weekend, bringing its North American total to $130.7m. That is well behind the $161m earned by its predecessor Skyfall over the same period.
