Top of the Pops, 7th April 2022

It's one of those strange weeks where there isn't a lot of movement at the top of the chart, which means that the show is mainly populated by hits from the teens, 20s and 30s. That's no bad thing, though, since it gives recent hits from Russ Millions, Liilz and Becky Hill a second airing, and allows room to showcase the high climber from Potter Payper and the new one from Tate McRae.

The brightest star power comes from friend of the show Camila Cabello, who gives us a solo performance of Bam Bam and then sticks around to join in the lambada bits of the A1 and J1 song. Dave makes it a round four weeks at number 1.

Fully half of the show this week is new British rap smashes: A1 and J1, Russ Millions, Arrdee and especially Dave who teleports in at the very top to mean that finally, no one is talking about Bruno.

The bookers dip way down the chart this week, featuring rare outside-the-top-40 hits from Nicki Minaj and (gasp) Elton John, and there's also room for new face Bella Poarch. More regular guests include friends of the show Little Mix and Dua Lipa, plus Tion Wayne and Russ Millions in their third week at number 1.

But the chart excitement comes from four new entries: three from J Cole, plus a retinue of guest stars, and a follow-up from Olivia Rodrigo that almost matches the incredible peak of her first hit.

Tion Wayne and Russ Millions make a slightly unexpected leap to the top of the chart, so they are in rude form here.

From lower down the chart there's a new one from Nathan Dawe and the delightful Anne-Marie, plus Mostack, and second showings for hits by Aurora and Tom Zanetti.
