Top of the Pops, 21st April 2022

Harry Styles continues to fry all opposition with the force of his pure loveliness, even Jack Harlow who can only reach number 2 (still hugely impressive from him). Not too shabby either is Cat Burns, who makes the top five for the first time.

There's a raft of new tracks on the show this week, including Digga D, Vibe Chemistry and Becky Hill and Ella Henderson trying to out-belt each other, plus a Tyga/Doja Cat collaboration that's spent a few weeks in the lower reaches already. Doja sticks around to exclusively do the Fergie bits for Jack Harlow as well, which is nice.

Top of the Pops, 23rd October 2014

With some spritzes of dance and whatever Ed Sheeran is, pop rules this week. The show is opened by a boyband sandwich with Ella Henderson as the tasty filling, and closed with a duo of personality-rich female pop delights (though Meghan Trainor is not in the studio so we make do with her vid).

Also, Talay Riley achieves a coveted second consecutive week on TOTP by featuring on another track, and friend of the show Paloma Faith and Sigma slow down Changes for an impassioned one-off performance that puts Jay James from the X Factor thoroughly to shame.
