Top of the Pops, 31st October 2024

Aside from that, Gigi Perez rises to number 2, beating all but Sabrina Carpenter, while Rosé has a strong showing alongside guest Bruno Mars.

Given their ubiquity just lately it would be a bit of a shock if the Last Dinner Party weren't on Top of the Pops - but here they are to open the show. Just pipping them as a high climber, though, is YG Marley, so he could be one to watch.

Megan Thee Stallion completes a trio of new entries, complementing some of the bigger hits from last year from Casso, Tate McRae and Sonny Fodera which take their 2023 momentum into a second month. But once again the week belongs to Noah Kahan, though the story of the year so far Teddy Swims is gaining on him.

Top of the Pops, 11th January 2024

It's the post-Christmas chart, which means that everyone is going UP, which means a high-quality show where everyone is in the top ten - a true rundown of what's popular right now. That means a lot of the strongest tracks from the second half of last year, but also Sophie Ellis Bextor riding the Saltburn wave, who takes the TOTP stage for the first time in a long time and shows the rest how it's done.

Other than that, Tate McRae has a big moment with two top 20 singles, and Noah Kahan finally takes the top spot after a few patient weeks waiting for Wham! to clear out of the way.

After the deep cuts of last week, this week sees a lot of movement in the top ten, meaning that we catch up with long-running hits from Casso (a sweet candlelight version this week), Tyla and Tate McRae. International superstar Jung Kook is also resurgent, and Olivia Rodrigo hits the top 20 with yet another new track.
