Top of the Pops, 17th December 2015

Christmas is coming on fast, the goose is bulking up alarmingly, and the Pogues are scaling the chart once again, earning their annual From The Vault slot. Meanwhile in the present day it's a week of consolidation on the chart, enabling us to re-feature some recent entries from Years & Years, Robin Shulz and friend of the show Jess Glynn.

The most special performance this week is a Major Lazer double bill, where Olly from Years & Years and our friend Jess both fill in for MO, taking the stage alongside new-hit guest vocalist Nyla. Bieber remains at number 1 but is not here in person so we get a montage of pics of his and Ed Sheeran's faces.

No TOTP next week because it will be Christmas Eve, too close to the special (and actually real) Christmas TOTP.

Top of the Pops, 10th December 2015

It's beginning to look a little like Christmas, as Mariah spearheads the annual festive chart invasion; once again an old performance of hers brings Christmas magic to the From The Vault slot. After his domination last week, Bieber takes the day off, but he's still at number 1 so Love Yourself is played over a montage of clips from his already surprisingly long career.

We may not have Bieber, but - it's a Festivus miracle! - none other than Beyonce is finally here to give us the full version of Runnin' in all its glory, alongside Naughty Boy and Arrow Benjamin. Coldplay give us a cockle-warming acoustic version of Adventure Of A Lifetime, and friend of the show The Weeknd is here to perform The Hills in full Santa regalia.

Top of the Pops, 3rd December 2015

Justin Bieber dominates the top 40 this week, but Justin himself is otherwise engaged so we only get the video for his number 1 hit, Sorry. Sorry. That means we have to look some way down the chart to fill up our show, giving opportunities to exciting bubblers-under Robin Schulz and Yates, Grace, and Shawn Mendes.

Friends of the show The Weeknd and Ed Sheeran also return to ramp up the star power, and we welcome Nathan Sykes, a former member of The Wanted, for a second solo appearance.

Debuts: Grace, G-Eazy, Robin Schulz, Yates, Shawn Mendes.

Up 5 to number 20

Second week at number 1

PRESENTER: Duffy

Top of the Pops, 26th November 2015

This week, more than ever before, is Bieber Week. In an unprecedented chart full house, young Justin has the number one single, the highest new entry and the high climber - and they're all different songs. Fortunately he agrees to grace us with his presence, performing quite a chunk of his newly released album.

Other than that there's a strong X Factor connection: One Direction and Olly Murs are former contestants, Jess Glynne has recently performed on the results show and even Ariana Grande benefits from One Last Time being chosen, during Movie Week for some reason.

Debuts: Format B.

One Direction - Perfect / Drag Me Down

Up 6 to number 10 / Up 15 to number 37

Jess Glynne - Don't Be So Hard On Yourself

Top of the Pops, 19th November 2015

It's a high-flying week this week as all our TOTP performances come from the top 20. That means a debuting Fleur East, it means chart queen Jess Glynne, it means MNEK and Zara, and it means the song from the John Lewis ad (by Aurora).

Halloween Week (or its aftermath) means the annual From The Vault showing of the re-charting Thriller. Michael Jackson soundalike and friend of the show The Weeknd is also back once again, as is the always delightful Ellie Goulding.

Newer sounds come from Ariana Grande, Lost Frequencies and Fetty Wap, while the lovely Little Mix give us a nice sampler of their just-released album. Adele remains at number 1, but we see the video this week as she doesn't want to take any risks with those vocal cords.

Top of the Pops, 5th November 2015

Hello! Adele is here. Would you believe it's her TOTP debut?

In fact there's a lot of star power this week. Not only do Justin Bieber and His Illustrious Highness Drake make the trip over once again (probably to try and get a glimpse of the Tottenham Troubadour), they are persuaded to team up for what may be the most awe-inspiring TOTP performance yet of Mark Ronson's Uptown Funk.

Also here are solid gold friends of the show One Direction and Little Mix, as well as a filmic Sam Smith and a passionate MNEK and Larsson.

Debuts: Adele.
