Top of the Pops, 7th December 2023

Michael Buble isn't wrong - it is indeed beginning to look a lot like Christmas, at least in the singles chart. Only Jack Harlow, at the very top of the tree, valiantly sings about something other than presents, elves, warm feelings, tinsel and such.

Apart from Wham! in the From The Vault slot, Top of the Pops brings you a selection of the more relatively contemporary Christmas hits, including new-for-this-year tracks from Jorja Smith and Sam Ryder alongside modern classics from Kelly Clarkson, Sia and friend of the show Ariana Grande.

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.

Top of the Pops, 26th May 2022

If rock is over, nobody told My Chemical Romance, who open the show this week. There's also a pleasingly retro feel about our Eurovision-powered highest new entry from Sam Ryder. More contemporary sounds come from Post Malone, friends of the show D-Block Europe and Kendrick Lamar, and there's a welcome return for La Roux doing her cameo on the Tion Wayne track.
