Top of the Pops, 27th November 2014

No surprise at the top of the charts as Band Aid process to the number 1 slot, pushing a couple of high quality contenders down to 2 and 3. We feature them all (though Band Aid is just the video), along with numerous other new entries. Hair gel fans will be pleased as it's a rare three boyband week, and One Direction's hydra of hits gets them featured for a very noteworthy fourth week in a row.

Top of the Pops, 20th November 2014

One Direction's album has hit and there is no stopping them at the moment - they have a ton of singles climbing the chart and they appear for the third week in a row to bring us the highest-selling (and streaming) three of them.

Now in fine Jools Holland style, the other guests. From the American South! OneRepublic. From Australia! The Veronicas. From Ireland! Hozier. From Los Angeles! Kendrick Lamar. From Grimsby! Ella Henderson. From Magic FM! Sam Smith. And at number one it's the Children in Need record.

Top of the Pops, 13th November 2014

As chance would have it there are very few climbers in the chart this week, and some of the ones there are are by American artists who are unavailable. This gives us the chance to shine the spotlight on some smaller hits - including Joss Stone's song for Poppy Day, a coveted second consecutive TOTP for One Direction, and a special stripped back version of Overdrive from the talented Becky Hill.

Bucking the trend are Cheryl, who vaults all the way to the top, and a strong new entry for Calvin vs Ellie II. There's also room for more modestly placed newies from Tom Odell (welcome back) and the Script (er, hi guys).

Debuts: Joss Stone, Jeff Beck, Henry Krinkle.

Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding - Outside

In at number 6

Joss Stone ft. Jeff Beck - No Man's Land (Green Fields of France)

Top of the Pops, 6th November 2014

Halloween feels like a while ago but chart-lag plus TOTP-lag means that only now do we bring you spooky season's chief beneficiary in the form of a re-entering Michael Jackson - a clip from the classic video is played.

More currently, America's two leading bouncy pop groups are both in the hizzouse (Maroon 5 bizarrely making their debut), and we are the grateful recipients of a visit from Queen Taylor Swift. One Direction bounce back to fly the UK (and Ireland?) flag(s) along with friend of the show Ed Sheeran, and Europe is also not unrepresented thanks to Parra for Cuva.

Debuts: Maroon 5, Parra for Cuva, Ann Naklab

Taylor Swift - Shake It Off

Up 2 to number 3

OneRepublic - I Lived

In at number 29

Parra for Cuva ft. Ann Naklab - Wicked Games

Top of the Pops, 30th October 2014

A week of consolidation in the chart sees several songs make micro-climbs, allowing them to come back for a second (or in some cases umpteenth) week. There's an electrifying new entry from Fuse ODG and we dig Tracy Chapman out of the vault, but once again the week is all about that Meghan Trainor (on video though, not in the studio).

Fuse ODG ft. Angel - TINA

In at number 9

The Script - Superheroes

Up 2 to number 19

George Ezra - Blame It On Me / Budapest

Up 1 to number 12 / Up 1 to number 17

Meghan Trainor - All About That Bass

Fourth week at number 1

PRESENTER: Abs from Five

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.

One Direction - Steal My Girl

Highest New Entry - In at number 3

Ella Henderson - Ghost

Long Runner - Up 6 to number 16 after 19 weeks

The Vamps - Oh Cecilia (Breaking My Heart)

High Climber - Up 35 to number 9

Taylor Swift - Shake It Off

Up 2 to number 2

Meghan Trainor - All About That Bass

Third week at number 1

PRESENTER: James Masterton

Top of the Pops, 16th October 2014

Not so much studio time as usual this week. The Goo Goo Dolls (aka The Iris Singers) get a From the Vault slot, the BBC's new multi-artist VT gets an airing and Meghan Trainor is away trotting the globe, so her second week at number 1 is celebrated by playing the video.

Not to worry, though. Here in person we have a Nicki Minaj double-header (with a rare appearance from Usher), fellow RnB guy Jeremih and young guns Ella and LuvBug keeping the British end up as well.

Debuts: LuvBug, Talay Riley, Jeremih, YG.

LuvBug ft. Talay Riley - Resonance

In at number 13

Ella Henderson - Glow

In at number 7

Brian Wilson & Various Artists - God Only Knows

In at number 20
