Top of the Pops, 27th November 2025

The K-Pop Demon Hunters take a week off this week, but the animated fun rolls on as the cast of Hazbin Hotel make their debut on the show. They aren't the highest new entry though - that honour goes to wuthering expert Charli XCX, with Lewis Capaldi not far behind.

Friends of the show Tate McRae and Sonny Fodera are also in attendance, as are man of the year contender Sombr and undisputed woman of the year Olivia Dean. There's a faint sound of jingling bells in the chart this week, but we'll save all that until December.

Debuts: Poppy Baskcomb, Hazbin Hotel

Taylor Swift hops back up to number 1, allowing her to bring us a combined performance of The Fate Of Ophelia and secondary hit Elizabeth Taylor. The displaced act, K-Pop Demon Hunters, are on the show as well with their own secondary hit How It's Done.

Top of the Pops, 13th November 2025

We're a bit after Halloween now but because of the way the chart weeks work, this week is the peak of pumpkinmania - so we have Rockwell in the From The Vault slot and also Andrew Gold with his spooky skeletons. Perhaps scarier than that, though, is the righteous fury of Lily Allen whose ex-drubbings continue to climb.

There's a new entry for EsDeeKid and yet another decent sized hit from this year's breakout Olivia Dean - she performs in a fun spooky costume, as do the K-Pop Demon Hunters who now hit double digit weeks at the top.

Debuts: Andrew Gold

Lily Allen - Madeline

Up 3 to number 16

EsDeeKid - Century

In at number 40

Sienna Spiro - Die On This Hill

Top of the Pops, 6th November 2025

Lots of new entries on the show this week, from Dave, chart behemoth Lewis Capaldi, hot young thing Skye Newman and perhaps most seismically Lily Allen, who performs a two-track sampler from her media-ensorcelling new album.

The K-Pop Demon Hunters manage an impressive little leap up to number 1, displacing Taylor Swift who nevertheless appears with a secondary overlapping hit. And from way down the chart, Le Sserafim take advantage of a lack of other chartbreakers to snatch their debut on the show.

Debuts: Le Sserafim

Lewis Capaldi - Almost

In at number 44

Taylor Swift - Opalite

Up 1 to number 4

Le Sserafim and J-Hope - Spaghetti

In at number 46

Sam Fender ups the ante this week, being joined not only by the breakout chart star of the year (non-K-pop category) Olivia Dean, but also by Sir Elton John! TOTP magic right there.

Top of the Pops, 23rd October 2025

It's fair to say that the charts are female-dominated at the moment, but it's rare for every song on Top of the Pops to be female-led. It's no bad thing, though - especially this week when there are exciting new hits for Jisoo and especially Sienna Spiro, plus returning heavyweights RAYE and Sabrina Carpenter.

Tinashe finally appears with an exclusive solo version of No Broke Boys, and there's an equally special double showing from Olivia Dean, who has three songs in the top ten just now. But they're not as high up as the three songs of Taylor Swift - the week belongs to her once again.

Debuts: Jisoo, Sienna Spiro

Jisoo ft. ZAYN - Eyes Closed

In at number 37

Tinashe - No Broke Boys

Up 2 to number 18

Sienna Spiro - Die On This Hill

Highest New Entry - In at number 26

RAYE - Where Is My Husband?

Up 1 to number 5

K-Pop Demon Hunters - How It's Done

Back in at number 12

Sabrina Carpenter - Tears

Up 2 to number 11

Olivia Dean - Nice To Each Other / So Easy (To Fall In Love)

Up 1 to number 7 / Up 4 to number 8

Taylor Swift - The Fate Of Ophelia

Second week at number 1

Top of the Pops, 16th October 2025

This week belongs, of course, to Taylor Swift, who performs the new songs that have taken their place in the top 3 chart positions. Slightly more low-key congratulations to Oskar Med K, who has the next highest-placed chart climber down at number 29.

So we've got an eclectic assortment from the lower chart reaches, including a Wuthering Heights-powered Charli XCX, perennial bubbler-under Tame Impala, friends of the show D-Block Europe, and a bizarre collaboration between Fred Again and Amyl and the Sniffers.

Debuts: Amyl and the Sniffers

D-Block Europe ft. Lil TJay - Wrongs

In at number 51

Tame Impala - Dracula
