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.

It's a week for patient climbers: Doja Cat, Burna Boy and Bru-C all reach new chart peaks, while LF System complete a very impressive journey to the top spot.

Top of the Pops, 30th June 2022

Big new entries from Drake and to a lesser extent Beyonce have pushed most of the other songs down the chart, so we have to delve a long way to find performers - but we strike gold with fresh tracks from Doja Cat and a triumphantly returning Chase and Status.

It's pretty dance-heavy this week even apart from Beyonce's bandwagon jump: Sigala reach a new peak with their latest hit and LF System inch their way into the top three. Tom Grennan will please fans of more singer-songwriterly material.

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.
