Top of the Pops, 17th October 2024

There's still no stopping Miss 2024 Sabrina Carpenter: she powers through the six-week barrier to capture a seventh week at number 1 with Taste (to add to all those other weeks with her other hits already this year). And not only that: she fills in alongside Bruno Mars, as Lady Gaga is off promoting her Joker musical madhouse film.

Elsewhere we have the return of international megastar Jimin, a nice slowed-down candlelight performance from Jazzy, and a big new entry from KSI. Plus a new chart peak for Addison Rae and a look back into the past with Crowded House.

There's still a bit of kick left in the brat summer: Charli XCX is on again with a solo version of her former number 1, plus a breezy interpolation of Apple. Chappell Roan has a double bill as well, but the biggest news of the week might be the storming new entry from Linkin Park.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars are the biggest news this week, dropping in seemingly out of nowhere with a top ten smash. Post Malone's album is out as well, so he performs a triple bill sampler of its three rootin' tootin' hits.

Brat summer has definitely arrived! Charli XCX makes an Olympic pole vault to number 1, with a little help from Billie Eilish. She and Chappell Roan help friend of the show Benson Boone out with a fun reimagining of Beautiful Things as well.

With a lot of foot-shuffling in the middle of the chart, a few lower-down tracks can be featured: the new tracks from Sonny Fodera and Hanumakind, a joyful reprise from Coldplay, and a double header from bright young thing Gracie Abrams.

Legend in her own lifetime Taylor Swift is back on the show, soaring up the chart with Karma. Other big pop names who are featured include friend of the show Dua Lipa, and arguably the Jonas Brothers, who finally climb high enough to get on after a couple of months in the lower reaches of the chart.

There's an unprecedented Eurovision flavour to the show this week, as no fewer than four of the featured acts invade the top ten. Some of the performances shown here are taken from the event itself, but Mae Muller and winner Loreen make the trip to the TOTP studio.

A slight drop in pressure at the top of the chart allows us to catch up with some of the songs that have been racking up impressive recent runs in and around the top ten: Belters Only, Mimi Webb, Jax and MNEK, and especially Aitch who this time brings along Ashanti in person. She's still got it.

Top of the Pops, 24th February 2022

Huge congratulation to the Encanto Crew this week as they reach their finest achievement yet: holding steady at the top of the chart in defiance of the, one would have thought, unbeatable Sheeran/Swift team-up. Ed and Taylor are there at number 2, though, and Dove Cameron and Central Cee also have strong chart entries.

We welcome back top drill interpreter Digga D, showing more chart longevity than usual with his latest track, as well as Belters Only and Luude, who both reach new peaks this week. And there's a huge leap by Adele - for Valentine's Day?

The biggest new entry this week is from drill star Digga D and his mate StillBrickin: they turn up and bring the fire as we'd expect. Chart inroads are also made by Mr New Year himself, Years and Years, former number 1 artiste Gunna, and the lovable Charlie Puth.

Lost Frequencies and Belters Only are both invited back as their tracks continue to hit new peaks, the latter bringing us a special candlelight version. Meat Loaf is remembered in the From The Vault slot, and the Encanto crew hold firm at the top.
