Top of the Pops, 22nd October 2020

It's pop week on Top of the Pops, as a precipitous fall by Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion allows other songs that had been holding steady to all move up a bit, meaning that almost the entire top ten gets featured on the show. That means Paul Woolford, Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, Derulo and another new high for Tate McRae, plus a huge posse cut medley from Headie One and his compadres.

Lower down the chart Sam Smith makes further inroads, while we're played out by another medley as friends of the show Clean Bandit join 24KGoldn for an exclusive reimagining of his two current hits.

Debuts: None.

She may have had one of the albums of the year, but we haven't seen that much of friend of the show Dua Lipa on TOTP lately. She puts that right this week, sneaking into the line-up as Hallucinate rises to number 31. Also breaking the surface is Dermot Kennedy, while Simba and Gunna make rather flashier inroads.

Paul Woolford and Diplo have quietly floated up into the top ten so they make a third appearance in six weeks, while Cardi B and Megan remain at the top, glee unabated.

Debuts: Don Tolliver, Nav.

Top of the Pops, 10th September 2020

It's a strange chart this week: almost nobody has climbed more than three places. The exceptions are Clean Bandit and the new entry from Calvin Harris and friend of the show The Weeknd, so they beam in as much energy as is humanly possible over a remote connection.

Huge congratulations also to Cardi and Megan, who perform as much of their song as the censors allow to celebrate reaching the top.

Debuts: None.

Little Mix - Holiday

Up 3 to number 18

Clean Bandit ft. Mabel and 24KGoldn - Tick Tock

High Climber - Up 16 to number 20

Miley Cyrus - Midnight Sky

Up 2 to number 17

Up 3 to number 12

Chris Brown ft. Young Thug - Go Crazy

A couple of legends grace our screens this week - after all, it's not like they're doing anything else. We have 50 Cent accompanying Roddy Ricch and a recording of Pop Smoke, and then none other than Tina Turner deigning to join in with Kygo's plunking.

There are exciting new entries from Miley Cyrus and Lil Durk, and possibly unexpected appearances from DJ Khaled and Diplo. MNEK and Corry are immovable at the summit.
