Top of the Pops, 19th April 2018

With God's Plan still fresh in the memory, Drake crashes back in with the next one, Nice For What. And takes the opportunity to reprise his guest spot on the Blocboy JB track as well.

In non-Drake news, we reprise long runners from Bebe Rexha, MO and B Young, while Calvin Harris and Dua Lipa bring us the other megahit of the moment and a new face arrives in the shape of Ruti.

Top of the Pops, 5th April 2018

At last, they've done it. Assisted by the accelerated chart ratio, Rudimental and friends make the one small step up to number 1, appearing with a carnival-type performance and big grins on their faces.

Aside from that it's mostly a rundown of faves from the last few weeks, the exception being the suspiciously smooth Shawn Mendes, in at number 13. Of note are the double-header marking the release of George Ezra's album, and the way Florida Georgia Line seem to be becoming unlikely TOTP regulars.

Debuts: None.

Camila Cabello - Never Be The Same

Up 1 to number 18

Top of the Pops, 29th March 2018

The highest new entry this week is a novelty single: Lil Dicky and the dashing Chris Brown turn TOTP Thursday into Freaky Friday. Also making chart inroads are XXXtentacion, Khalid and Normani (of Fifth Harmony, or possibly ex-Fifth Harmony), and the indestructible Sigala.

We have a couple of special exclusives, too. Florida Georgia Line are back with a solo rendition of Let Me Go, their Hailee Steinfeld co-credit, and Maren Morris leaves the DJs at home to bring us an acoustic version of The Middle.

PS If you're wondering where Rudimental have got to, the problem is that they've been a non-mover for weeks and weeks, stuck behind Drake. Apart from the number 1 we only feature chart climbers, so they haven't been on much. Sorry, hat guy, but those are the rules.

Debuts: Lil Dicky.

Florida Georgia Line - Let Me Go

Top of the Pops, 22nd March 2018

I don't think anyone could have predicted the success of the Greatest Showman soundtrack, but here it is, the biggest movie chart phenomenon since Frozen - and This Is Me is still in the top ten, which Let It Go never quite managed. Keala Settle appears once again to belt it out.

Elsewhere we have the second TOTP appearance this year for the unlikely Florida Georgia Line, a welcome reappearance by the girl band M.O., and the return of Years & Years. Various other popular hits of the day complete the line-up.

Debuts: Lotto Boyzz.

Top of the Pops, 22nd February 2018

Grime and film continue to be the twin sounds of 2018: this week it's Kojo Funds representing the former, and Liam and Rita for the latter - though they only get through a verse and a chorus before Rita barges Liam off the stage and launches into a spirited rendition of the far superior Anywhere.

We also have the quietly very successful song from Jax Jones and Ina Wroldsen, the rather blunt new lyric from Anne-Marie, and a whole bunch of people crammed on to the stage with Hailee Steinfeld. Drake looks very cool at number 1 (and number 23 too).

Debuts: Florida Georgia Line, Andrew Watt, Blocboy JB.

Liam Payne and Rita Ora - For You (Fifty Shades Freed) / Anywhere

Up 10 to number 8 / Up 1 to number 31
