Top of the Pops, 15th October 2015

As Bieber bounces back up to the top - again! - we have to make do with the video. He's a busy guy. But never fear, Drake is here, along with friend of the show Ellie Goulding, Natalie La Rose, Naughty Boy, Arrow Benjamin but sadly still no Beyonce.

Fans of The Vamps will love this week's show: the boys open the half-hour, and then recur when you least expect it to fill in for Adam Levine in a super-special version of Locked Away by R City.

Debuts: Anton Powers.

The Vamps - Wake Up

In at number 12

Drake - Hotline Bling

High Climber - Up 9 to number 8

Natalie La Rose ft. Fetty Wap - Around The World / Trap Queen

In at number 14 / Up 2 to number 25

Ellie Goulding - On My Mind

Up 1 to number 5

Philip George ft. Anton Powers - Alone No More

Top of the Pops, 26th March 2015

A bit of TOTP musical chairs this week produces some special one-offs. Bruno Mars is out of town so Mark Ronson calls on Olly Murs AND Maroon 5's Adam Levine to bring their song and dance man talents to Uptown Funk. Murs in turn recruits Sam Smith for the Lovato role on Up, before returning the favour to do justice to John Legend's lines on still-number-one Lay Me Down.

We also see James Bay scale a new chart peak, and a trio of dance hits rounds out the show.

Debut: Tough Love.

Maroon 5 - Sugar

Up 1 to number 10

Mark Ronson ft. Olly Murs and Adam Levine - Uptown Funk

Up 1 to number 8

James Bay - Hold Back The River

High Climber - Up 6 to number 4

Tough Love - So Freakin' Tight

Highest New Entry - In at number 11

Marlon Roudette - When The Beat Drops Out

Up 2 to number 12

Philip George - Wish You Were Mine

Up 1 to number 25

Olly Murs ft. Sam Smith - Up

Up 1 to number 24

Sam Smith ft. Olly Murs - Lay Me Down

Second week at number 1

Top of the Pops, 8th January 2015

We're back after the (genuinely made and broadcast) Christmas TOTP and with the chart in its annual gift-voucher period, several of the year's biggest hits are climbing once again. Hence medleys from year-defining acts George Ezra (celebrating the number 1 album) and Bandit/Glynne, as well as the quietly popular Guetta/Martin combo, alongside more current hits from Philip George and Blonde.

John Newman pops in without Calvin Harris for a solo rendition of Blame, accompanied by six people dressed exactly like him doing the same irresistible dance moves. And the number one is Mark Ronson, but sadly we can only show the video. Our producers are working frantically to get him in the studio should he hold on at the top next week.

Debuts: Philip George.

Clean Bandit feat. Jess Glynne - Real Love / Rather Be

Up 2 to number 14 / Up 22 to number 28

Hozier - Take Me To Church

Up 13 to number 10

John Newman - Blame

Up 3 to number 29

David Guetta feat. Sam Martin - Dangerous / Lovers On The Sun

Up 4 to number 22 / Back in at number 70

Blonde feat. Melissa Steel - I Loved You

Up 4 to number 31

Philip George - Wish You Were Mine

Highest New Entry - Straight in at number 2

George Ezra - Budapest / Blame It On Me

Up 4 to number 17 / Up 4 to number 20

Mark Ronson feat. Bruno Mars - Uptown Funk

Third week at number 1
