Top of the Pops, 19th June 2025

After twelve Ordinary weeks, it falls to Sabrina Carpenter to continue her imperial phase and knock Alex Warren off the top. There are also big new entries for (former?) King Ed Sheeran and MK, and yet another new peak for Sombr.

Lower down the chart we have Skepta, an album sampler from Addison Rae, and debutant Levi Heron. And why are Dire Straits back in the top 75? We don't know, but they sound very nice in the From The Vault slot.

Debuts: Sammy Virji, Levi Heron

Sammy Virji ft. Skepta - Cops & Robbers

Up 5 to number 41

Ed Sheeran - Sapphire

In at number 9

Levi Heron - The Glen

Up 11 to number 26
