"So, Did that huge upsurge in views of Black Tower books help?"

The answer is, as I suggested it would be, no.

Incredible that such a huge number of UK views of BTCG comics and books took place over the weekend...and even today it seems by looking at stats. But nothing selling?

The UK market is dead. I can list example after example but why bother? 

Keep looking while it's all still there and remember the price increase stage 3 this Friday.
