Top of the Pops, 21st September 2023

It's quite a moment this week as none other than the Rolling Stones are welcomed back to the Top of the Pops studio after decades away. More familiar faces (to younger viewers) are Leigh-Anne with a respectable second solo hit, BTS's V making his solo debut, and the chart queen of the moment Olivia Rodrigo. None of them can knock Doja Cat off the top, though, and she has another outlandish red-themed performance to delight the viewers.

Top of the Pops, 11th May 2023

It's a big week for Nines, who appears with two new tracks, guest stars in tow - and his hit Tony Soprano from last week is riding high as well. More fresh sounds come from Tyler the Creator, while at the other end of the scale are Glass Animals whose phenomenon of a track has now spent well over two years on the chart.

Friend of the show Zara Larsson is welcomed back, we remember Carlos Santana for some reason, and Calvin and Ellie make it four at the top.

Top of the Pops, 23rd March 2023

It's been a while since a massive track splatted into the top ten but that's what we have this week, as Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding smash down at number 3. It's not enough to best Miley Cyrus though, and her next-best competition seems to come from herself as River is the second highest new entry.

Further down we have Switch Disco with their own Robert Miles homage, well deserved returns from Ayra Starr, Coi LeRay and (at yet another new peak) Lizzy McAlpine, plus the first bit of drill for a while from Digga D. And lovely George Ezra pops in to celebrate the vernal equinox.

Debuts: Switch Disco

Coi LeRay - Players

Up 1 to number 9

Ayra Starr - Rush

Up 4 to number 24

Lizzy McAlpine - Ceilings

Up 1 to number 6

Digga D - Energy

In at number 19

Top of the Pops, 9th March 2023

It's a varied selection this week, as chart fluctuations mean that several tracks from the lower half of the top 40 are featured. That means debut appearances for Caity Baser, Ayra Starr and Superstar Pride, a return to the show for Freya Ridings, and a reprise of Hide & Seek from Stormzy. Star power comes from a huge team-up by friends of the show Ariana Grande and The Weeknd, while Miley Cyrus makes it lucky seven weeks on top.

Caity Baser - Pretty Boys

In at number 35
