Top of the Pops, 31st August 2023

It's a Barbie switchover at the top of the chart, as friend of the show Dua Lipa replaces Billie Eilish in the number 1 position. A strong challenge comes from Doja Cat, who storms into the top 5.

There are newly featured songs from Luke Combs and Issey Cross, repeat showings from Troye Sivan and Stormzy and RAYE, and a bizarre mashup from Anne-Marie and Shania Twain as they keep breaking off from their country song to do bits of the Haddaway homage Don't Hurt Me.

Top of the Pops, 13th July 2023

Olivia Rodrigo makes a triumphant return, dropping in at number 2 and only being denied the top spot by the combined rap power of Dave and Central Cee. Elsewere Peggy Gou reaches another new peak and there's a strong showing from D-Block Europe after a quiet spell from them.

David Guetta and friend of the show Anne-Marie bring us a special two-song rave-up, and Taylor Swift edges into the top ten.

Fifth week at number 1

PRESENTER: Fiona Bruce

Top of the Pops, 6th July 2023

It's a strong rap week this week: not only are Dave and Central Cee immovable at the top, but the chart is crashed by Stormzy, Fredo and Gunna as well. Playboi Carti is also here alongside the Weeknd, though there's no Madonna this week unfortunately. Shania Twain more than makes up for it.

Guns 'N' Roses get enough Glastonbury bounce to make it into the From The Vault slot, Stephen Sanchez is back, and Ella Henderson gives us a lovely acoustic medley of her two current banger-style hits.

Fourth week at number 1

PRESENTER: Radzi Chinyanganya

Top of the Pops, 22nd June 2023

It's Dave and Central Cee's week again: Sprinter stays at the top and their two other collabs both reach new peaks just a little lower down. Not even a strong showing from J Hus and global superstar Drake can spoil their party.

Party vibes are also brought by the Jonas Brothers, Rudimental, and in unbelievably basic form, Nathan Dawe and Joel Corry. There's a rousing return for Sam Fender and a pretty surprising instance of Shania Twain as well.

Debuts: Byron Messia

Top of the Pops, 1st June 2023

Calvin Harris is back in the studio for the proper rave-up version of Miracle as it reaches six weeks at the top. Other dance bangers are brought by Anne-Marie, Rudimental and Switch Disco, and the latter two join Calvin to do a three-way euphoric remix of As It Was as Harry Styles celebrates 60 consecutive weeks on the chart, most of them in the upper reaches.

Two big names have new entries this week: Lana Del Rey and Kylie Minogue both do well with their fresh material. David Kushner is also back with his Hozier-style, inexplicably popular balled.

PRESENTER: JB Gill

Top of the Pops, 4th May 2023

Once again there are several new entries this week, the pick of them being from newcomer Nines. Lower down Jax Jones and Cupid are both doing well after quite a while on the chart already, and internet personality HSTikkyTokky appears to bewilder the TOTP audience.

Calvin and Ellie pop back up to number 1 following last week's Capaldi surge, and Ellie helps out Rema on an exclusive version of Calm Down too.

Top of the Pops, 20th April 2023

Ellie Goulding and Calvin hold on at the top (stripped back solo performance from Ellie this week) but they are run close by Libianca, who peaks at number 2 after several months on the chart. Also continuing to climb is Bakar, while chart behemoth Lewis Capaldi has in incredible resurgence thanks to the release of his album.

As the days lengthen, George Ezra appears once again to satisfy his baying public, and there's a new banger from David Guetta and a reprise from Taylor Swift. Drake has the highest new entry.

PRESENTER: Heidi Range

Top of the Pops, 12th January 2023

It's the weird post-Christmas chart where all the tinsel gets cleared out and the normal music floods back in to take its place. That means newish material from Central Cee and SZA, older 2022 bangers from Anne-Marie and Venbee and Goddard, and a very old, hoary and well-tested number from Tom Odell.

All the congratulations in the world to RAYE. It's been a long journey but here she is at the top.

Debuts: None

Anne-Marie ft. Aitch - Psycho

Top of the Pops, 24th November 2022

The show is bristling with exclusives and one-off performances this week. No less names than Stormzy and Taylor Swift (with Lana Del Rey along for the ride) both perform two-track showcases of their recent albums, while Aitch and Anne-Marie stick around after doing their own song to join David Guetta and breathe new life into his Blue reimagining, UK style.

To add to that, there are chartbreakers from Bugzy Malone and Tiesto, and warm welcomes back for the tracks of the moment from Oliver Tree and Dermot Kennedy.

Debuts: Teedee

Top of the Pops, 13th October 2022

Who should have the highest new entry this week but King Ed Sheeran, as unstoppable as ever. KSI and the good old Arctic Monkeys also have new chart hits, DV4D reaches a new peak, and we welcome back Cian Ducrot and friend of the show Anne-Marie. Sam Smith and Kim Petras are still at number one with the scariest, perviest dirge to hit the top since Frankie Goes To Hollywood.

Top of the Pops, 29th September 2022

A big welcome back for friend of the show Anne-Marie! Aitch guests on her song, and he's also here on his own track alongside King Ed Sheeran, so it all joins up. Also returning are international stars BlackPink with their second hit of the year, and Rosa Linn, who's showing a lot of staying power for a Eurovision hit.

Our debutant this week Montell Fish, and unqualified congratulations must go to David Guetta and Bebe Rexha for jumping up to number 1, whatever the material is like.

Top of the Pops, 2nd December 2021

The Adele album is out, and she is good enough to give us a bit of the top three tracks from it to close the show this week. Between that and the sudden onset of Christmas music, current chart climbers are few and far between, which gives Lost Frequencies a chance to get on the show after seven weeks in the lower reaches. 

Friend of the show Anne-Marie and Niall Horan have a nice new entry with the Children In Need song, and D-Block Europe hit their highest chart placing to date. Justin Bieber and especially Imagine Dragons are featured for the first time in a while. And we have a very special in-person Mariah Carey performance with a couple of guest stars.

Top of the Pops, 7th October 2021

Last week we had La Di Da, this week it's Uh Oh and Ah Ah Ah. Trendspotters are predicting either Mmhmmm or Oi Oi for Christmas number 1 - but only if it's recorded by King Ed Sheeran, who looks all but immovable. Also on the show: a debut performance from Shouse, a superstar team-up from Coldplay and BTS, and second performaces from CKay who is riding high in the top ten, and the slowly climbing Dermot Kennedy.

Debuts: Shouse

Top of the Pops, 26th August 2021

King Ed Sheeran can't be shifted from the top and it's hard to see who would even have a chance - the highest new entry this week is from Digga D and Arrdee and well done to them, but number 6 is a long way from number 1. It's a strong and diverse line-up on the show, though, with Lil Nas X, Olivia Rodrigo, KSI, Doja Cat, Little Mix, Anne-Marie and even Tones & I all arguably the the biggest current names in their respective sub-fields. Whew.

Debuts: None

Top of the Pops, 5th August 2021

Dave's album is out this week, so there's an exclusive performance of two tracks from him, with Stormzy in tow as well. Speaking of longtime friends of the show, can you believe it's well over a year since Rita Ora was on? And there's a super team-up by Anne-Marie and Little Mix.

From the US come Doja Cat, Lil Nas X and Camila Cabello. There's a debut appearance for Rain Radio, and King Ed Sheeran remains on his throne, looking down on the rest of the chart below him.

Top of the Pops, 29th July 2021

As the football songs exit the chart, most other tracks shuffle up a place or two, which means repeat appearances for Tom Grennan, Anne-Marie and Niall Horan, Arrdee, Tones & I, and bafflingly, Maneskin, who are still in the top ten with two different tracks, neither of which is their Eurovision winner.

New material comes from KSI and Lil Durk, plus the latest posthumous release from Pop Smoke, which Dua Lipa helps to propel a little higher than usual. Needless to say King Ed Sheeran still reigns, as just the seventh artist to hit number one this year.

There are several new entries this week, including the queen of the 2020s Billie Eilish and a pair of British rappers, Arrdee and Tion Wayne. Man of the moment Tom Grennan is also here alongside Calvin Harris.

Chart continuity comes from friends of the show Little Mix, with an acoustic version of their Galantis-assisted hit, plus the year-plus chart run of Harry Styles, who this week performs the track on bongos and panpipes. Anne-Marie and Niall are also back, and of course Olivia Rodrigo is still making it look easy at the top of the chart.

PRESENTER: Kimberley Walsh

Top of the Pops, 3rd June 2021

What will be this year's summer anthem? At the moment it looks likely to be by Olivia Rodrigo, who completely dominates the chart and indeed the show this week with three top ten hits at once. However, there's also a strong rest-of-the-world contingent here: BTS from Korea, Maneskin from Italy and indeed the barely perceptible Galantis on the Little Mix hit.

He've also got repeat showings from Mimi Webb (top ten for the first time) and Polo G, and a big new breaker from friend of the show Anne-Marie and Niall Horan.

Top of the Pops, 13th May 2021

Tion Wayne and Russ Millions make a slightly unexpected leap to the top of the chart, so they are in rude form here. The biggest new entry is from 2020s pop legend Billie Eilish, but we also have chartbreakers from friends of the show Little Mix, the Weeknd suddenly diving for the top ten, and the Bad Boy Chiller Crew.

From lower down the chart there's a new one from Nathan Dawe and the delightful Anne-Marie, plus Mostack, and second showings for hits by Aurora and Tom Zanetti.

Top of the Pops, 25th March 2021

With Olivia Rodrigo capsizing all the way down to number 18 this week, the top ten is finally showing some movement. One beneficiary is Nathan Evans, but we all get to enjoy a high-quality show featuring a lot of very big hits.

With KSI busy performing his new track with Yungblud, Anne-Marie brings us an acoustic version of Don't Play. There's also a double performance by Doja Cat (plus Saweetie) and a riotous exclusive from RAYE and her compadres D-Block Europe.
