Top of the Pops, 12th Feburary 2026

Dave and Tems are back up to number 1 this week, Dave performing a stripped-back solo version on the show. The biggest entry is from Noah Kahan, there's a resurgence from friend of the show RAYE, and not for the first time we have an Olivia Dean double bill.

Top of the Pops, 8th January 2026

We're back after the Christmas break and it's the usual fairly silly post-Christmas chart, where anything with sleigh bells on it plummets downwards or disappears and everything else zooms back up. 

Generally this means a TOTP that acts as a round-up of the biggest hits from the end of the previous year - and we do have Olivia Dean, Dave, Sam Fender, Taylor Swift and our new number 1 hit from friend of the show RAYE. But there are some surprises as well - a resurgence for a Djo song from a couple of years ago, a top 30 re-entry for Tiffany, and a brand new track from good old Sabrina Carpenter.

Debuts: None

Back in at number 4

PRESENTER: Heidi Range

Top of the Pops, 4th December 2025

The rising Christmas tide can be ignored no longer, so this week's show features a round-up or montage of popular Christmas oldies, evergreen as a Norwegian pine. That's not the only chart story of the week, though: the latest Wicked film brings friend of the show Ariana Grande and her BFF Cynthia Erivo, and there are exciting entries for Tate McRae and Stray Kids.

EsDeeKid continues his breakout year, and RAYE almost climbs to the top, but not quite - Taylor holds firm with her Shakespearean musings.

PRESENTER: Radzi Chinyanganya

Top of the Pops, 23rd October 2025

It's fair to say that the charts are female-dominated at the moment, but it's rare for every song on Top of the Pops to be female-led. It's no bad thing, though - especially this week when there are exciting new hits for Jisoo and especially Sienna Spiro, plus returning heavyweights RAYE and Sabrina Carpenter.

Tinashe finally appears with an exclusive solo version of No Broke Boys, and there's an equally special double showing from Olivia Dean, who has three songs in the top ten just now. But they're not as high up as the three songs of Taylor Swift - the week belongs to her once again.

Debuts: Jisoo, Sienna Spiro

Jisoo ft. ZAYN - Eyes Closed

In at number 37

Tinashe - No Broke Boys

Up 2 to number 18

Second week at number 1

PRESENTER: Adrian Chiles

Top of the Pops, 9th October 2025

All change in the chart this week: the K-Poppers are unseated at the top by none other than the woman of the year Olivia Dean - richly deserved. There are also big new entries from Tate McRae, Sabrina Carpenter and Doja Cat, and RAYE has a full band reprise of the song that made her, Escapism.

On the male side of things there's a new one from Myles Smith and a debut appearance for Tkandz and CXSPER.

Top of the Pops, 2nd October 2025

With somewhat of a dearth of climbers in the top 40, the bookers this week have to delve down and find some deep cuts, which means unexpected opportunities for Esdeekid, friend of the show Anne-Marie, the returning Marino and Oskar Med K. Higher up there are a couple of big entries for RAYE and chart behemoth Lewis Capaldi. Lola Young brings us a double bill and the K-Pop Demon Hunters delight us with a fully animated big band version of Golden.

Top of the Pops, 26th June 2025

Even Sabrina Carpenter can only nick a single week at number 1 - astoundingly, Alex Warren is back up to the top again! There aren't many other climbers in the top 20, but Olivia Dean is back, with an older track alongside her current one, and Myles Smith is still looking perky.

Lower down we have the first Top of the Pops appearance in a while from Twenty One Pilots, and possibly a surprise low charting from the big name team-up of Mark Ronson and RAYE. J-Hope has the highest new entry and friends of the show Coldplay are in the From The Vault slot.

Liam Payne has bee the only news in the music world this week, and Top of the Pops pays its own tribute with a One Direction From The Vault slot. Aside from that, Gigi Perez rises to number 2, beating all but Sabrina Carpenter, while Rosé has a strong showing alongside guest Bruno Mars.

There's still a bit of kick left in the brat summer: Charli XCX is on again with a solo version of her former number 1, plus a breezy interpolation of Apple. Chappell Roan has a double bill as well, but the biggest news of the week might be the storming new entry from Linkin Park.

Friend of the show RAYE is here as well, filling in for Lady Gaga alongside Bruno Mars as well as doing her guest turn on the Central Cee song. None other than Sabrina Carpenter is at the top.

Sabrina Carpenter is still kept off the top by Eminem, but she does have the highest new entry this week, giving her two songs in the top 3. Speaking of follow-ups, RAYE is back with the sequel or coda to last year's all-conquering album. There are also debuts for Flex (UK) and Gracie Abrams.

Queen Taylor Swift drops in as well for a double header, although it's interesting that  the track from ages ago is actually higher in the chart than the one from her latest album.

The big winner at the BRITs is also the big performer on Top Of The Pops this week: Best New Act (among other things) RAYE celebrates ten years in the biz with three chart climbers, performed in an exclusive medley.

Also performing two tracks are Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign, whose latest batch of hits seems to have more chart staying power than usual. And there are new chart peaks for Djo, and Benson Boone's throaty woman-as-object anthem. Beyonce remains at number 1 and is joined by another classic country act for extra authenticity.

PRESENTER: Heidi Range

Top of the Pops, 8th February 2024

Given their ubiquity just lately it would be a bit of a shock if the Last Dinner Party weren't on Top of the Pops - but here they are to open the show. Just pipping them as a high climber, though, is YG Marley, so he could be one to watch.

Megan Thee Stallion completes a trio of new entries, complementing some of the bigger hits from last year from Casso, Tate McRae and Sonny Fodera which take their 2023 momentum into a second month. But once again the week belongs to Noah Kahan, though the story of the year so far Teddy Swims is gaining on him.

PRESENTER: Radzi Chinyanganya

Top of the Pops, 11th January 2024

It's the post-Christmas chart, which means that everyone is going UP, which means a high-quality show where everyone is in the top ten - a true rundown of what's popular right now. That means a lot of the strongest tracks from the second half of last year, but also Sophie Ellis Bextor riding the Saltburn wave, who takes the TOTP stage for the first time in a long time and shows the rest how it's done.

Other than that, Tate McRae has a big moment with two top 20 singles, and Noah Kahan finally takes the top spot after a few patient weeks waiting for Wham! to clear out of the way.

Debuts: None

Dua Lipa - Houdini

After the deep cuts of last week, this week sees a lot of movement in the top ten, meaning that we catch up with long-running hits from Casso (a sweet candlelight version this week), Tyla and Tate McRae. International superstar Jung Kook is also resurgent, and Olivia Rodrigo hits the top 20 with yet another new track.

Longtime friend of the show Zara Larsson makes a welcome appearance, but of course the top spot is reserved for the Fab Four: Ringo appears in the studio to introduce a video montage.

Top of the Pops, 7th September 2023

Dance music has had a great year so far, and this week two veterans of the field each have two tracks to perform - step forward MK (with a cheeky appearance for longtime friend of the show Rita Ora) and Chase and Status.

Burna Boy and Dave have a new track, and Casso, RAYE and the D-Block lads return with a nice chart jump, but the big accolades go to a trio of big name female singers: Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez both enter the chart and Olivia Rodrigo hops up to number 1.

It's a Barbie switchover at the top of the chart, as friend of the show Dua Lipa replaces Billie Eilish in the number 1 position. A strong challenge comes from Doja Cat, who storms into the top 5.

There are newly featured songs from Luke Combs and Issey Cross, repeat showings from Troye Sivan and Stormzy and RAYE, and a bizarre mashup from Anne-Marie and Shania Twain as they keep breaking off from their country song to do bits of the Haddaway homage Don't Hurt Me.

More Barbie! This week it's the turn of Charli XCX, plus the OG Barbie girls Aqua in the From The Vault slot with a classic performance. Another theme of the summer has been ripping off/homaging Robert Miles, kept up this time by Bou and Slay. And another theme has been Dave and Central Cee at the top of the charts, which shows no sign of being discontinued.
