Top of the Pops, 4th August 2016

BIG NEWS this week: Drake is finally knocked off the top spot, all the way down to number five in fact, leaving Bryan Adams's sixteen-week record intact. It's taken three performers to do what no one else could do, and Major Lazer, Justin Bieber and are all in the studio getting their groove on in celebration.

Further freshness comes from a new Fifth Harmony song, as they and Fetty Wap treat us to an exclusive double header that combines the new one with 2016 standout Work From Home. The rest of the show is a grab-bag of the perennially popular tracks of the moment: Calum Scott, DNCE, Christine and the Queens, Kent Jones and the latest drone-along from Bastille.

Debuts: None.

Top of the Pops, 21st July 2016

Drake is now one week away from drawing level with Wet Wet Wet at number one but he's not here to celebrate. Instead we get one of the livelier stand-in performances as Britain's foremost light entertainer Olly Murs takes the helm for a snappy reimagining.

As well as the Mursinator, Bastille and are returning after some time away, the latter now with her own song after spending most of last year guesting with Major Lazer. Jonas Blue, Kent Jones and promising newcomers Christine and the Queens are also making headway up the chart.

Debuts: MØ (as solo).

Jonas Blue ft. JP Cooper - Perfect Strangers

Top of the Pops, 7th July 2016

Iiiiiit's the Drake show! In his Slim Whitman-pummelling twelfth week at number 1, the man himself returns to duet with Rihanna on their two current hot tracks. And of course he comes on at the end of the show to do One Dance - this time in a raved-up megaversion thanks to a fortuitous encounter with Calvin Harris.

Making more modest strides up the chart are Dua Lipa, Jonas Blue and a couple of debutants in Kent Jones and Christine and the Queens. Shawn Mendes's possibly problematic Treat You Better is also making inroads.

Debuts: JP Cooper, Christine and the Queens, Kent Jones.

Up 4 to number 41 / Up 2 to number 3
