Top of the Pops, 11th December 2025

Reindeer-type music continues to charge up the chart, so there's another From The Vault round-up of oldies - but also new or at least vaguely contemporary Christmas faves from Kylie Minogue, Laufey, friend of the show Ariana Grande and Sabrina Carpenter - not a bad line-up.

Many congratulations also to Haven, Djo and indeed Taylor Swift for doing well with non-Christmas music. Can Taylor cling on until the big day?

Top of the Pops, 12th December 2024

Here we are at the last Top Of The Pops of the year and the chart is pretty much snowed in now - only the Wicked soundtrack, Chrystal, and the laudable anomaly of Gracie Abrams at number 1 are not in the festive category.

So, we've got oldies from Wham! and Brenda Lee, newies from Tom Grennan and Laufey, and a new version of an oldie from Mariah with full military support. Merry Christmas!
