I must admit EE is getting a bit heavy we have Sharon trying to kill Ian and failing badly, Gray been a abuser and a killer, Suki trying to bump people off as well by getting her son to do it, and Phil trying to be a hard nut and now we have Lucas. If Gray is going to kill someone off again its got to be a female, the only person that could be next in line Whitney or Karen if she ever found out, as I can't see anyone else.

Just listened to "I Hope" her voice just sets my teeth on edge -_-

We could be all living under a dome soon at this rate, Kent is heading for a Lockdown. I've been doing a lot of Befriending sessions during the day from home, a lot of people are going through Anxiety and depression issues, its really sad how people are coping, going through it myself I must admit talking to other people helps me a bit as well.

OCC database for 2020 starts off with Stormzy for the year https://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/a...es__7931/#2020s

The last act to have a Xmas track in the first chart of the new year must have been Slade, can't remember if Band Aid did it for a week with the original version.

I rather have Wham at #1, Mariah Carey already had 2 weeks. Ed Sheeran must be doing peanuts So the top 5 could be looking like 1 Wham! 2 Mariah 3 CJ 4 Jess 5 Ed

I wonder how much boost TOTP Thursday show will do, depends who is performing on the day. Alfie Templeman, Arlo Parks, Becky Hill, DJ Nathan Dawe featuring KSI and Ella Henderson, Sigala and James Arthur, Yungblud, and Wes Nelson featuring Hardy Caprio. They also relive performances by Alicia Keys, Michael Kiwanuka and more. Nothing really stands out

OK, I knocked *something* together, despite that lack of definite sales info,,, V1 : YTD Sales : Please read these guidelines before you request sales estimates, it makes my task a lot easier. 1. Be specific - please name the artist and title for each entry you'd like an estimate for. 2. I log sales for all albums that have charted this year, but only update those that have sold enough to reach my 200 position tracking range 3. If an album isn't in the current Top 100, I won't be able to update its sales until Tues. Also, please don't ask about ex-T100 albums too often - once a month at most) 4. Remember to check the thread before requesting estimates - they may already have been answered. Also, no more than half-a-dozen requests at a time, thanks. 5. Please note my figures are combined sales & streams, and since I have no way of separating them, I cannot provide a split. 6. While I am no longer estimating singles sales, I can provide YTD singles positions from C+, and I am still maintaining my sales archive based on published figures (PM me if you want to see it) 7. Total sales are post-1994 only, so sales of albums relased before then will be understated. Thank you.

The OCC might put something online tonight, some staff do work from home, Radio 1 are just concentrating on the tracks of 2020 tonight. Mind you as you said, it won't make much difference as Spotify are usually late to report the data. Anyway... moving on...

If anyone want to do a Take 3 version go for it, having a day off

If I'm thinking correctly, with a flashback episode tonight its going to reveal some added scenes from the period when EE was off-air, which we could be seeing Dotty that would explain her absence. That scene last night with Ian talking about his boys, and Sharon's face really said it all and Phil is on it as well. The only thing what I find odd why did Max buried that award if that was used to hit Ian with. I think the producers need to axe Billy and Honey, there is nothing else they can add to the show, it seems they have passed their sell by date.

Updated to a Top 40

Maybe all the shows that has been screened so far since September its part of a dream sequence played out by Ian... Ian needs to wake up.

Ed Sheeran incoming :drama: Blinding Lights Top 10 :lol:

Can we all move on now, its getting tiring to read, the mids are due in soon

I don't think there be any to be honest, as most people will start playing new music after Xmas day, if people are given a CD album as a gift, surely their mood will shift to that. Or stream what's available.

I have the strangest feeling he is going for THAT Christmas #1, I'll be amazed if he does it.

It is a standalone track OCC report https://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/e...or-fans__31906/

Anyone thinks he will release another version collaborating with.... hmmm.... Cliff Richard, Ronan Keating :thinking: :lol:

#2 behind LadBaby on sales of 90-100k

Take it away for Take 2 :cheer:

its above
