Does anyone else here listen to this every week as I do? If I don't listen when it's broadcast I catch it on Listen Again. Much preferred it on Sundays TBH. This Sat., 19th Sept. it's the Top 20 charts from this week 1967 and then 1980. Following Capital Gold's dropping of Bottom To The Top it's the only old chart show that I know of. Does anyone know of any others where old charts are counted down?

 

Sat. 19th. - 1967 & 1980

 

Sat. 26th - 1974 & 1993.

I listen to Brian as well. Sounds Of The 70's on Sunday afternoons with Johnnie Walker is a good listen too.

Used to listen to Fluff doing it on Radio 1 years ago. Somehow he always seemed to find a way to play the Marcell's Blue Moon at least once a month.

Look at the big smile on his face as he squats down to stop the camera. Very pleased Tony there.

Now I don't know if this is true, but some lunatic (who can't spell at all or string a sentence together) on Facebook has said that during August, Radio 2 will be repeating some of Alan Freeman's original POTPs on Sundays at 1pm. That would mean the 1967 to 1972 period. Though it all depends if this nutter on Facebook is actually speaking the truth!

Hope it's true Dave.

I'm a member of that group too and heard that story. The BBC did recently put out a request for old POTP shows presented by Fluff, if true this could be why they were interested.

Supposed to be on Sundays 1 to 3pm when presumably Elaine Paige is away.

Ive listened to the show since the Radio 1 days in the late 80s and early 90s, there is a show on Smooth Radio with David "Kid "Jensen

counting down two years of the past.

Yes, the Double Top 20 Show, Sundays, 6-8pm.

Best Retro Countdowns are:

 

Atlantic Oldies 2NG 2PM Sundays

Bay FM Sundays 4pm

Radio Hafren Sunday 12pm

 

If you enjoy PIck Of The Pops...you'll like those much more. Honest!

Heard The Bay FM retro chart on Sunday, was very impressed. All Top 40 records (bar Judge Dread) and nice presentation.

Noticed when he played Rock n Roll Pt II he credited it to the 'Glitter Band' instead.

I listen too, you can't move for retro chart shows at the moment, there's also Double Top 20 with David Jensen on Sunday evenings, and the vintage

chart show on some bbc local stations including (Cornwall, Devon, Gloucestershire) on saturday evenings.

There's a good one on Bay FM (Exmouth) on Sundays 4-6.

A poster on digitalspy just said he heard from "a very reliable source that 'POTP are going for a slight format adjustment' in the near future"
