In a busy week for new entries we get drop-bys from the ever-energetic Union J, the intriguingly named Wankelmut and the irreproachable Taylor Swift among others. On the other side of things there are long running tunes from Vance Joy (performed this time mainly on tambourines) and friend of the show Ed Sheeran.

Nico & Vinz pull off a rare (these days) second week at number 1 and return to the studio to perform the song in style.

Loveable rudesbies Magic! climb that final place to number 1, earning themselves a coveted second TOTP performance in a row - but as they are blowing up worldwide and unable to appear, we have to make do with the video. There's plenty of talent in the studio, though, including a slowed-down reprise of Overdrive from Becky Hill sans Mr Heldens, and a triumphant first performance in her own right from Melissa Steel, who we saw a couple of weeks ago guesting on a hit by Kove.
Rounding out the evening are a couple of faves from friend of the show Ed Sheeran and a slew of first-timers including the shadowy Zhu (face covered of course).
