Top of the Pops, 26th February 2026

A couple of cross-media events dominate the show this week (a bit like the Superbowl last week). First we have the Wuthering Heights film: a not-so-bratty Charli XCX performs two of her songs from the soundtrack. And then there's the BRIT Awards bounce for acts including Harry Styles, the K-Pop Demon Hunters, and even Olivia Dean, whose Sam Fender collab skips up to number 1 after around nine months on the chart.

Elsewhere there's a new entry for Bella Kay, a strong chart climb for Dominic Fike, and a second appearance for Bruno Mars's latest cheeky offering. Perhaps the most unexpected appearance is Milky, back from the 00s thanks to a new remix.

Debuts: Bella Kay

Bella Kay - Iloveitiloveitiloveitiloveit

Some glittering stars this week: not only does Taylor Swift leap up to number 1, but friend of the show Zara Larsson is back, guesting with Pinkpantheress on Stateside, who returns the favour with an exclusive version of Lush Life. And Justin Bieber!

Dave and Tems are back up to number 1 this week, Dave performing a stripped-back solo version on the show. The biggest entry is from Noah Kahan, there's a resurgence from friend of the show RAYE, and not for the first time we have an Olivia Dean double bill.

Top of the Pops, 5th February 2026

For the second week in a row the top 40 offers very few climbers, so several of the guests are probably quite surprised to have been invited. We've got a couple of the big hits from last year (or before?) from Ravyn Lenae and Chappell Roan, decent entries from M Huncho, Fredo and Fred Again, and a classy debut performance from Ella Langley.

Bucking the trend are two strong new entries from stalwarts the Arctic Monkeys and Harry Styles, the latter straight in at number 1.

Debuts: Ella Langley

Fred Again ft. Young Thug - Scared

In at number 55

Arctic Monkeys - Opening Night

In at number 16

A lot of fallers in the top 40 means that it's one of those weeks when the TOTP producers get to explore the lower reaches a bit. They find the evergreen People Watching from the hugely popular Sam Fender, a longtime bubbler-under from Addison Rae, and the first appearance in a long while from ASAP Rocky.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars are going back up the chart for whatever reason, as are the Cure, who get the From The Vault slot. There are strong new showings from Gunna and friend of the show Zara Larsson, while Dave (with Tems of course) gets a richly deserved, or even somewhat belated, number 1 hit.

Debuts: None

Sam Fender - People Watching

Up 1 to number 43

ASAP Rocky - Helicopter

Highest New Entry - In at number 42

Zara Larsson - Midnight Sun

Up 10 to number 29

Top of the Pops, 22nd January 2026

Toes are tapping this week to the huge new entry from Bruno Mars, though he can't get especially close to Djo at the top, who appears with a double bill this week. Sienna Spiro makes it two TOTPs in a row as her secondary hit You Stole The Show is climbing, as does Zara Larsson, who performs this week alongside Pinkpantheress.

There are 2025 reprises from Sonny Fodera, Kehlani and EsDeeKid, while more new material comes from Zach Bryan.

Top of the Pops, 15th January 2026

The new year is getting off to a pretty interesting start here. We've got the least predictable number 1 hit for some time, from Djo, and another surprise top ten re-entry from Zara Larsson. There's also new material from international K-poppers KATSEYE and debutant James Marriott.

Haven, Sienna Spiro and of course Olivia Dean reprise their big songs from last year, while in a chart that contains quite a few oldies, Prince takes the From The Vault slot.

Debuts: James Marriott
