Top of the Pops, 16th April 2026

There's a zesty mix of old and new this week: refamiliarising the audience with Alex Warren's behemoth, Bruno Mars's cheeky groove and friend of the show Zara Larsson's continuing career renaissance; but also showcasing a fresh Harry Styles track, a new one from Anotr and an impressive chart charge from Ella Langley.

There are also two full-bodied solo performances of songs released as duets: Dave without Tems, and Olivia Dean with the inevitable Olivia-only exclusive of Rein Me In, which is still on top.

Top of the Pops, 19th March 2026

Nothing can stop Harry Styles, at least in his week of release, so American Girls crashes in at the top! Other American girls on the show, or women, include Bebe Rexha, Bella Kay, and Keyshia Cole who is back once again alongside Sean Paul.

There's also an exclusive Jennie-only version of Dracula, the return of Sombr, and friend of the show Zara Larsson continuing her resurgence.

Top of the Pops, 26th February 2026

A couple of cross-media events dominate the show this week (a bit like the Superbowl last week). First we have the Wuthering Heights film: a not-so-bratty Charli XCX performs two of her songs from the soundtrack. And then there's the BRIT Awards bounce for acts including Harry Styles, the K-Pop Demon Hunters, and even Olivia Dean, whose Sam Fender collab skips up to number 1 after around nine months on the chart.

Elsewhere there's a new entry for Bella Kay, a strong chart climb for Dominic Fike, and a second appearance for Bruno Mars's latest cheeky offering. Perhaps the most unexpected appearance is Milky, back from the 00s thanks to a new remix.

Debuts: Bella Kay

Bella Kay - Iloveitiloveitiloveitiloveit

PRESENTER: Dannii Minogue

Top of the Pops, 5th February 2026

For the second week in a row the top 40 offers very few climbers, so several of the guests are probably quite surprised to have been invited. We've got a couple of the big hits from last year (or before?) from Ravyn Lenae and Chappell Roan, decent entries from M Huncho, Fredo and Fred Again, and a classy debut performance from Ella Langley.

Bucking the trend are two strong new entries from stalwarts the Arctic Monkeys and Harry Styles, the latter straight in at number 1.

Debuts: Ella Langley

Fred Again ft. Young Thug - Scared

In at number 55

Arctic Monkeys - Opening Night

Top of the Pops, 16th May 2024

Welcome to Drake vs Kendrick Lamar week! Top of the Pops presents a handy round-up of all the diss tracks that are climbing the chart in one manageable package. Also featured is a man who has collaborated with both, Future, so perhaps he can arbitrate if the result is in doubt.

On the pop side of things we have friend of the show Dua Lipa and a randomly returning Harry Styles, and on the authentic American troubadour side of things we have Benson Boone, newcomer Tommy Richman and arguably Shaboozey. Sabrina Carpenter continues to keep it classy at number 1.

PRESENTER: JB Gill

Top of the Pops, 29th June 2023

Taylor Swift and Harry Styles are the big names this week, both seldom off the chart and making new forays with tracks that have been relatively unfeatured so far. Jorja Smith also reaches a new peak - could this be the real big hit she's promised for so long?

There are new entries for Leigh-Anne (welcome back Leigh-Anne!) and Peggy Gou, and a big leap for Tom Grennan, while Dave and Central Cee look pretty comfortable at the top.

Debuts: Leigh-Anne (as solo), Peggy Gou

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.

Sixth week at number 1

PRESENTER: JB Gill

Top of the Pops, 13th April 2023

In a slightly surprising development, Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding leap up to replace Ed Sheeran at the top after only a week! Elsewhere on the chart a few fallers from near the top mean that some long-running hits get to shuffle up a bit - not least Harry Styles who celebrates a year on the hit parade with a special steel drum-assisted performance.

We're also able to give a first exposure to some hits that have been quietly climbing for a while now, so welcome Tom Grennan, Meghan Trainor, Nathan Dawe and friend of the show Zara Larsson. Mimi Webb also gives us a special extra-dubby version of Red Flags.

Top of the Pops, 23rd February 2023

The Brits effect is working for Harry Styles this week, as his song-of-the-year from '22 leaps back into the top ten. Maybe more surprising is a new top 20 hit for Linkin Park (a Bennington tribute video airs).

Central Cee, Lovejoy and Strandz all crash the chart as well, while minor rises bring a repeat featuring for Libianca and a return to the show for megastar Taylor Swift. Miley remains at number 1, bringing a touch of bluegrass to the performance this week.

Top of the Pops, 10th November 2022

It's a second week at number one for Taylor Swift, but in terms of star power even she may have to take a back seat to the returning Rihanna. Other fresh tracks come from SZA, Fred Again and D4Vd, and at the other end of the spectrum we have Harry Styles reprising his summer megahit.

Top of the Pops, 1st September 2022

We've had a summer with a fair few long-running hits but things get shaken up a bit as we go into the autumn. Nicky Youre is a new face, BlackPink are back after a long gap, Fred Again has crept into the top 40 and there's a big new hit from Aitch and King Ed Sheeran. Even Harry Styles hasn't been on for a bit.

Some continuity is provided by a second appearance from Rosa Linn and the immovable constant of LF System at number 1, still holding Eliza Rose at bay.

Debuts: Nicky Youre, Dazy

Loads of new entries this week: international megatars BTS, Joji and friends of the show D-Block Europe are all here, plus OneRepublic reach a new chart peak and George Ezra bounces back into the top 30.

The newness continues at the top of the chart, sort of, with fresh new hitmaker Kate Bush finally deposing Harry Styles from the top of the chart. Harry Does sneak on to the show performing one of his secondary hits, though.

Top of the Pops, 16th June 2022

Harry Styles has made it to ten weeks at number 1. Chart compilation rules mean that a dip next week is quite likely, so he pulls out all the stops here and invites most of this week's performers and some other celebrity friends to join him on stage.

In other news we have a rare solo hit from Burna Boy, the return of friend of the show Doja Cat alongside megastar scruff Post Malone, and a little bit of Shotgun from George Ezra because why not.

Top of the Pops, 9th June 2022

It's a big week for returns. Friend of the show Dua Lipa has been pretty quiet this year, but she appears here alongside Calvin Harris. But bigger than that, Lady Gaga is back on the show too! But bigger than that, Kate Bush is back in the chart! So we see one of her classic performances from the 80s.

It was also about time the Lizzo track got a second airing (and she sticks around to help out Jack Harlow), Tion Wayne and Benzz both reprise their recent hits, and Harry Styles is immovable at number 1.

Top of the Pops, 26th May 2022

If rock is over, nobody told My Chemical Romance, who open the show this week. There's also a pleasingly retro feel about our Eurovision-powered highest new entry from Sam Ryder. More contemporary sounds come from Post Malone, friends of the show D-Block Europe and Kendrick Lamar, and there's a welcome return for La Roux doing her cameo on the Tion Wayne track.

There's a rare sighting of Kendrick Lamar this week, and an even rarer non-festive sighting of Mariah Carey, who gamely comes along for her guest spot on the Latto track.
