Not likely Tom, He would need to get as high as number 34 on iTunes.

More often than not, they do. Though a few have missed the top spot. Now 27 springs to mind, because this week in 1994, Pink Floyd`s Division Bell held it off.

The big finish then, with that Top 75 lowdown supplied by DTR (The Data & Technical Research Company). The top 40 is based on a mixture of physicals/downloads with the 41-75 on solid downloads.

Unfortunately SFG can`t be budged from the top. It could be a very quiet chart in all, because N-dubz could fall out of the top 40 in favour of the other one from Florence. Don`t forget to stay ahead with the chart join Jason Scott on the Superstation http://www.thesuperstation.info from 4pm on Sunday, and at 7pm those bubblers & future hits...before anyone else, and non-stop. Meanwhile, did you ponder over that person, who had 2 consecutive Easter number ones? Well, it was actually Madonna "Like A Prayer" in 1989 & "Vogue" in 1990. Emma Bunton did get 2, one with the Spice Girls & one solo, but they weren`t consecutive anyway!

Talking Cider, doesn`t Strongbow just give you a roaring gut ache? Mass produced and full of chemicals. Like you say Tom, Bulmers Pear is pretty good.

Do you know Robbie? I`d cean forgotten that! I was looking at the actual publicity sheet for Live Aid. Apparently they should`ve followed Phil Collins`s UK appearance.

Anytime mate!

Oh good! Yep, I like the way we`ve managed to have David Guetta & Kid Cudi in for 2 weeks, and he`s only just managed the Official Top 40 this week! That 7.5% Airplay on new entries, works well.

By the way if you are in too vintage sitcoms, there are currently two of the worse ever made showing on Film24 (Sky 157) on Sundays at 7pm. They are "Take A Letter Mr Jones" with John Inman/Rula Lenska/Miriam Margoyles followed by "That Beryl Marston" with Julia McKenzie/Gareth Hunt/Jonathon Morris...They are both Southern Television at it`s worse, and no wonder they lost their franchise after this dross! Mind you, they also run Kids TV, like "Freewheelers" & "The Flockton Flyer" during the week, so not so bad. There are also some rarely seen B & W films too. Possibly we await a re-run of Jon Pertwee`s "Worzel Gummidge" too. More good news is, forthcoming plans to show more archive stuff like "Sapphire & Steel" a la David Macallum/Joanna Lumley, "The Gemini Man" (Ben Murphy), Cannon...a less often screened detective show made by Quinn Martin. Which could mean we might get "The Fugitive" (the original series) which deserves a complete re-run. On the detective thing, they already show the original B & W series of "Burke`s Law" on Fridays at 10.30am. Overall probably one of the better Satellite Channels.

Joanna babysits Tom in the sitcom, based on the U.S. series "Who`s The Boss" 20 BRUSH STROKES 9.80...Karl Howlman as the painter/ladiesman in the sitcom (and thankfully) the last ever episode The Top Albums in Apr 1991: Now 19 knocks out Annie & Dave, as Rod peaks 01 02 NOW 19 - VARIOUS 02 01 GREATEST HITS - EURYTHMICS 03 10 VAGABOND HEART - ROD STEWART 04 03 OUT OF TIME - R.E.M. 05 NE JOYRIDE - ROXETTE 06 05 COMPLETE PICTURE - DEBORAH HARRY AND BLONDIE 07 04 AUBERGE - CHRIS REA 08 06 INSPECTOR MORSE - BARRINGTON PHELOUNG 09 12 ENTREAT - CURE 10 28 DOORS - SOUNDTRACK - DOORS The Top Singles in Apr 1991: 01 03 SIT DOWN - JAMES...touring at the moment, and it just failed to make the Gallup #1, but did it for the Network Chart 02 01 ONE AND ONLY - CHESNEY HAWKES...Chip`s son (of the Tremoloes). Always stated as a one hit wonder, but we know it wasn`t! 03 36 WHOLE OF THE MOON - WATERBOYS...the re-issue of the 1984 top 30 hit, for the Scottish/Irish band following their best of album 04 04 RHYTHM OF MY HEART - ROD STEWART...Rod doing good in 1991. I do question the stuff, he`s putting out today. Can we have something a little more original? 05 05 SECRET LOVE - BEE GEES...High Civilization was the album, from whence it came. Possibly the only current hit of the time being played on Radio 2 06 19 LOVE AND KISSES - DANNI MINOGUE...Was she a shade better looking than Kylie? Some thought So! 07 14 HUMAN NATURE - GARY CLAIL ON U SOUND SYSTEM...the British singer/producer and part on U Sound Records 08 10 MEGAMIX - SNAP!...Did we need a Snap! megamix? Well the German/US Electronic sound thought so! 09 07 JOYRIDE - ROXETTE...Per & Marie, Swedish and ever so Radio friendly, and the reunion last year 10 02 WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME-CAN`T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU - PET SHOP BOYS...U2 meets Franki Valli/Andy Williams, and better days for Neil & Chris 11 41 STRIKE IT UP - BLACK BOX...a US dance chart #1 for Italian set 12 13 I`VE GOT NEWS FOR YOU - FEARGAL SHARKEY...52 this year, and his actual first name is Sean. But I think I`m right in saying, you probably haven`t heard this song since 1991 13 06 LET THERE BE LOVE - SIMPLE MINDS...Jim Kerr and the Glasgow bunch, who have sold 40 million albums worldwide since 1979 14 NE RESCUE ME - MADONNA...another MRIB number one for Madge 15 47 ANTHEM - N-JOI...the House/Techno duo from Southend 16 20 HERE WE GO - C & C MUSIC FACTORY...Clivilles & Cole at it again. David Cole passed away in 1995, but Robert continued the C & C name 17 12 THIS IS YOUR LIFE - BANDERAS...Sally Herbert was one of the backing singers with the Communards, joined by Caroline Buckley 18 21 WEAR YOUR LOVE LIKE HEAVEN - DEFINITION OF SOUND...Kevin Clark, Don Weekes, Rex Brough, Mike Spencer in the London dance based outfit 19 09 ITS TOO LATE - QUARTZ/DINA CARROLL...the first for Dina, although in actual fact she had already had a Continental hit in 1989, with a version of the classic "Walk On By" 20 NE DEEP DEEP TROUBLE - SIMPSONS...not such a big follow up to "Do The Bartman". The series only on Sky TV in 1991 21 17 SHE`S A WOMAN - SCRITTI POLITTI...up to Leeds for a Beatles cover, that featured the rather starange sound of one Shabba Ranks 22 23 HIGHWIRE - ROLLING STONES...the Stones still getting those small single hits featuring Living Colour & Guns N`Roses during their tours at this point 23 26 WORD OF MOUTH - MIKE AND THE MECHANICS...the late Paul Young did vocals on this one, Paul Carrack had been with Paul in Sad Cafe. 24 NE SIZE OF A COW - WONDER STUFF...the 8th top 50 hit for the lads from Stourbridge 25 15 LOSING MY RELIGION - R.E.M...Michael Stipe and co having better days, and coming from Georgia, of course 26 29 CAN YOU DIG IT - MOCK TURTLES...up to Manchester for Martin Coogan and co. Martin is Steve Coogan`s brother, you know 27 NE RING MY BELL - MONIE LOVE VS ADEVA...Simone Wilson meets Patricia Daniels, and as usual ripping off some old hit 28 34 CARAVAN - INSPIRAL CARPETS...Lambert & Holt etc from Oldham. Great stuff, and for me, best in the chart 29 38 WHERE LOVE LIES - ALISON LIMERICK...13 top 75 hits for Alison, who did backing vocals on the Style Council`s "Our Favourite Shop" album 30 11 SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO/RUSH - CLASH...re-issued for the Clash, although the B side was Big Audio Dynamite, and the connection of Mick Jones 31 24 OVER TO YOU JOHN - JIVE BUNNY...John & Andrew Pickles and Rotherham. Weren`t you just sick of them by now?! 32 39 COWBOYS AND ANGELS - GEORGE MICHAEL...12 UK nunber one singles, 10 U.S. ones. The Gulf War in 1991, led to a radio airplay Hot 100 hit "Mother`s Pride". Maybe Cowboys & Angels would have been a choice on it`s own. 33 30 BY MY SIDE - INXS...Michael Hutchence formed in 1977, and the apparent drug/alcohol suicide in 1997 34 NE HYPERREAL - SHAMEN...Mr C (Andrew West) had now appeared alongside Colin Angus, Derek & Keith McKenzie and Peter Stephenson 35 16 YOU GOT THE LOVE - SOURCE/CANDI STATON...originally written in 1986, featured with Paul Simpson on Adeva`s "Musical Freedom" in 1989, Joss Stone (last year), and Florence Welch this year 36 18 LOOSE FIT - HAPPY MONDAYS...madchester rules ok! Shaun Ryder and the gang 37 45 SENZA UNA DONNA - ZUCCHERO/PAUL YOUNG...it mean`t "Without A Woman". First recorded by the Italian without Paul, on the album version 38 NE HEAVEN - CHRIS REA...Aged 59, and currently touring. Was he so bad, or did he warrant the joke "What do you get if you cross Dire Straits with Chris Rea?" I thought it might have been a good idea to form a band called Dire-Rea! Could`ve used a title of "The Road To Money", combining "Road To Hell" with "Money For Nothing", as a send up. 39 33 BEEN CAUGHT STEALING - JANE`S ADDICTION...Perry Farrell and co from Los Angeles, and back 3rd time in 2010, working on new material 40 28 LOVE REARS ITS UGLY HEAD - LIVING COLOUR...The Funk-Metal Pioneers from New York, and a-forementioned performing with the Stones 41 NE SAILING ON THE SEVEN SEAS - ORCHESTRAL MANOEUVRES IN THE DARK...OMD, Andy McCluskey & Paul Humphries from the Wirral 42 08 STONK - HALE AND PACE...Comic Relief, and more nonsense! And what a fall down the chart. 43 22 BECAUSE I LOVE YOU - STEVIE B....Steven Bernard Hill was the full name of this Miami Singer/Producer/Songwriter. The song subtitled "The Postman`s Song". I thought that was "Get Down Shep", by the Barron Knights! 44 25 UNFINISHED SYMPATHY - MASSIVE....Up to Bristol for the gang "Massive Attack", and wasn`t it great 45 NE I`M ALRIGHT - KATHERINE E...Appearing on many 90s tracks, she was produced by Fabrizio Rizzolo & Franco Diaferia 46 NE SEAL OUR FATE - GLORIA ESTEFAN...a year on from the Tour Bus accident, and in 1991...it was back for the "Into The Light" promotion 47 50 ALWAYS ON THE RUN - LENNY KRAVITZ...the big mixed musical genius of the New Yorker 48 NE I JUST WANNA B WITH U - TRANSVISION VAMP...Wendy James on her last legs, but returning solo in 1993 with an album written by Elvis Costello 49 27 MOVE YOUR BODY - XPANSIONS...Sally Anne Marsh had been one part of the Threesome "Faith Hope & Chrity", which also featured one Dani Behr. Sally also played Cecile in Grange Hill, you may remember 50 NE IT WON`T BE LONG - ALISON MOYET...Billericay born Genevieve Moyet, nicking a title of a Beatles song, although a different song totally The Top Pre Order Singles, this week: 01 ONCE - DIANA VICKERS 19th Apr 02 NO TEARS LEFT TO CRY - PAUL WELLER 12th Apr 03 I NEED YOU TONIGHT - PROFESSOR GREEN 12th Apr 04 DO WAH DOO - KATE NASH 12th Apr 05 NATURALLY - SELENA GOMEZ 12th Apr The Top Pre-Order Albums, this week; 01 EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE ON TV - SCOUTING FOR GIRLS 12th Apr 02 DEFAMATION OF STRICKLAND BANKS - PLAN B 12th Apr 03 WAKE UP THE NATION - PAUL WELLER 19th Apr 04 SONGS FROM THE TAITED CHERRY TREE - DIANA VICKERS 3rd May 05 HANG COOL TEDDY BEAR - MEAT LOAF 19th Apr Something tells me the albums are looking a bit like the singles here!

That one though, not the original programme. It`s a re-make from the 90s, and in September 1967, Pick Of The Pops was running at the length of 90 minutes (not 60), and featured the new entries between 30 & 11, the new releases and the complete top 10. Where as, when Radio One started it increased to 2 hours, with the new entries 30 - 21, the new releases, and the complete top 20 from 5.55pm.

Actually got a plot, to sabotage the BigTop40 today. As we know on iTunes Telephone is #3 & #11, now wouldn`t it be fun to get that #11 version in the top 10 too, for 6pm! How would those two, at Capital explain that one?! Well they wouldn`t combine them, so they will get the number one 100% wrong anyway!

Back in March 2008, at least one edition pulled in 12 million. So yep, you are correct!

Yep, no rules for us! What`s the reason for Milward Brown`s/OCC dis-allowance? So far, for us it`s peaked at 66.

Shame about the Bill though. They may put it down to falling figures, but as it`s been shifted around the schedue, and messed about with, it`s just an excuse to take it off. They probably can`t afford it. Consider this though...when Channel 5 began they wanted it, because Thames have a stake in Channel 5!

I do it all the time! 18 CRIME OF PASSION 5.90 an ITV Courtroom drama sat in France, concerning murderers who commited Crimes Of Passion...killing people because they loved them, and were jealous etc 19 NEWS AT TEN TUES 5.90 20 MANHUNT 5.80 the reconstruction of war-time France and the story of 3 resistance fighters with Alfred Lynch/Cyd Hayman/Peter Barkworth managing to escape Philip Madoc & Robert Hardy each week The Top Singles in April 1970: 01 01 BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER - SIMON AND GARFUNKEL...You couldn`t get away from it in 1970, and the B side "Keep The Customer Satisfied" also got airplay, despite a version by Marsha Hunt 02 04 CAN`T HELP FALLING IN LOVE - ANDY WILLIAMS...the old crooner doing an Elvis cover 03 11 KNOCK KNOCK WHOSE THERE - MARY HOPKIN...the Eurovision Entry for the UK, beaten by Ireland 04 02 WANDERIN`STAR/I TALK TO THE TREES - LEE MARVIN/CLINT EASTWOOD...Paint Your Wagon was the film, and Lee nor Clint could sing a note! 05 05 THAT SAME OLD FEELING - PICKETTYWITCH...Polly Brown as lead, has a claim to fame that she might of once married Jimmy Savile, but didn`t 06 06 YOUNG GIFTED AND BLACK - BOB AND MARCIA...Bob Andy & Marcia Griffiths were the Jamaican twosome 07 03 LET IT BE - THE BEATLES...the end of the Fab Four, well instated...Hurray! But I do like Paul, though! 08 10 SOMETHINGS BURNING - KENNY ROGERS/FIRST EDITION...a very quiet record, that builds up for Kenny, and somewhat overlooked today 09 07 DON`T CRY DADDY - ELVIS PRESLEY...the somber sound of the Elv, and it never really improved afterwards 10 08 NA NA HEY HEY KISS HIM GOODBYE - STEAM...out of New York, and a US number one, and across Europe in 1969 11 12 EVERYBODY GET TOGETHER - DAVE CLARK FIVE...originally titled Let`s Get Together, and recorded by the Kingston Trio 12 09 I WANT YOU BACK - JACKSON FIVE...a number one for the 5, and the only one on this particular compiled chart. It didn`t do it on Radio One 13 17 FAREWELL IS A LONELY SOUND - JIMMY RUFFIN...the elder Brother of the late David Ruffin, who was with the Temptaions, Jimmy was not 14 32 SPIRIT IN THE SKY - NORMAN GREENBAUM...from Massachusettes, and everyone forgets the follow up was "Canned Ham". A big flop! 15 NE ALL KINDS OF EVERYTHING - DANA...the lovely Rosemary Scallon wins Eurovision 16 21 I CAN`T HELP MYSELF - FOUR TOPS...a re-issue for the gang, who just snuck into the chart in 1965 with it 17 13 YEARS MAY COME YEARS MAY GO - HERMANS HERMITS...Peter Noone later appeared in Coronation Street, as Len Fairclough`s son 18 19 YOU`RE SUCH A GOOD LOOKING WOMAN - JOE DOLAN...the late and great missed Irish sound of Joe 19 28 WHO DO YOU LOVE - JUICY LUCY...Bluesy/Rock a la Ray Owen, and the band that grew from the Misunderstood 20 14 LET`S WORK TOGETHER - CANNED HEAT...originally "Let`s Stick Together" with Wilbert Harrison 21 36 GIMME DAT DING - PIPKINS...all over the shop in 1970. The album shared billing with the fedging band "The Sweet". The Sweet had the A side of the album, and The Pipkins had the B side. It was a Tony Blackburn record of the week. Versions also featured as backing on Benny Hill Sketches, and it featured on the first new ringpull Coke ads. Rowan & Martin`s Laugh-In used a version, and kids tv series "Oliver In The Underworld" used it too 22 15 INSTANT KARMA - PLASTIC ONO BAND...the Lennon/Yoko trip 23 29 WHEN JULIE COMES AROUND - CUFFLINKS...the Cufflinks follow up to "Tracey". They were session singers, basically the same ones from The Archies "Sugar Sugar" etc 24 18 UNITED WE STAND - BROTHERHOOD OF MAN...Tony Burrows and co, and not the same set that won Eurovision. Infact Tony Burrows featured on TOTP about 4 times during a January edition, along with Edison Lighthouse/White Plains et al 25 16 RAINDROPS KEEP FALLIN`ON MY HEAD - SASHA DISTEL...the lovely Sasha died a few years back, and actually he wrote "The Good Life", the Tony Bennett hit 26 30 NOBODY`S FOOL - JIM REEVES...the late Jim, still knocking up those minor hits 27 26 TWO LITTLE BOYS - ROLF HARRIS...Rolf the most talented Australian to enter our shores, and somewhat always wasted on tv, with the shows he was given 28 20 LOVE GROWS - EDISON LIGHTHOUSE...Tony Burrows again 29 23 ELIZABETHAN REGGAE - BYRON LEE/BORIS GARDNER...Always problems with this track. Byron Lee featured Boris Gardner on his version. The Radio One countdowns in 1970, always referred to it as just "Byron Lee". A solo performance was done by Boris. Both versions pretty much the same. The BBC charted record label number actually is the dueted version 30 25 LEAVIN ON A JET PLANE - PETER PAUL AND MARY...Mary Travers passed away this year, and the other 2 were Peter Yarrow & Paul Stookey 31 27 JOY OF LIVING - CLIFF AND HANK...Cliff Richard on another outing with Hank Marvin 32 33 GOOD MORNING FREEDOM - BLUE MINK...Herbie Flowers was responsible for "Grandad" the Clive Dunn hit. Blue Mink also featured the likes of Madeline Bell & Roger Cook 33 NE TRAVELLIN`BAND - CREEDANCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL...John & Tom Fogerty oft called CCR 34 22 MY BABY LOVES LOVIN - WHITE PLAINS...Tony Burrows again! 35 31 I`LL GO ON HOPING - DES O`CONNOR...old Des was appearing on ITV in this American type series, that was utter utter....garbage! 36 35 TILL - DOROTHY SQUIRES...the ex-wife of Roger Moore, often question why? Perhaps money, me thinks. Roger needed to get famous somehow... 37 24 SYMPATHY - RARE BIRD...the voice of Steve Gould in the fivepiece outfit, who had more success in Europe with this haunting song 38 34 WHY MUST WE FALL IN LOVE - DIANA ROSS/SUPREMES/TEMPTATIONS...A super Motown line-up, but a not so song 39 NE NEVER HAD A DREAM COME TRUE - STEVIE WONDER...more Motown from Stevland Judkins, and he`a 60 in May 40 NE GOVINDA - RADHA KRISHNA TEMPLE...the George Harrison connection, well out of my thing The Top Albums in 1970: Slow moving stuff in 1970, as Simon And Garfunkel had over half the year at the top, well they had to "Keep The Customer Satisfied"!!!! Andy William`s had his Greatest Hits as the highest new entry, just outside the top 10. 01 01 BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER - SIMON AND GARFUNKEL 02 04 EASY RIDER - SOUNDTRACK 03 02 PAINT YOUR WAGON - SOUNDTRACK 04 03 LED ZEPPELIN II - LED ZEPPELIN 05 06 FILL YOUR HEAD WITH ROCK - VARIOUS 06 05 MOTOWN CHARTBUSTERS VOL. 3 - VARIOUS 07 07 HELLO I`M - JOHNNY CASH 08 08 FROM MEMPHIS TO VEGAS-FROM VEGAS TO MEMPHIS - ELVIS PRESLEY 09 09 ABBEY ROAD - THE BEATLES 10 10 GOLDEN RECORDS - JIM REEVES Must mention that in 1970, Monopoly was 35 years old...and I always remember digging it out during the Bank Holidays. Wasn`t it strange how half the contents i.e. the dog/boot/car/iron/top hat all seemed to go missing?! ;) The Top Pre-Order Singles this week: 01 ONCE - DIANA VICKERS 19th April 02 NO TEARS LEFT TO CRY - PAUL WELLER 12th April 03 I`D RATHER BE WITH YOU - JOSHUA RADIN 5th April 04 I NEED YOU TONIGHT - PROFESSOR GREEN 12th April 05 DO WAH DOO - KATE NASH 12th April The Top Pre-Order Albums this week: 01 WAKE UP THE NATION - PAUL WELLER 19th April 02 SLASH DELUXE - SLASH 7th April 03 EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE ON TV - SCOUTING FOR GIRLS 12th April 04 DEFAMATION OF STRICKLAND BANKS - PLAN B 12th April 05 PLACES BETWEEN - DOVES 5th April The Top Physicals this week: 01 01 LADY GAGA/BEYONCE 02 02 BOYZONE 03 03 CHERYL COLE 04 NE SCOUTING FOR GIRLS 05 04 BLACK EYED PEAS RTB 06 NE PLAN B 07 05 YOUNG MONEY 08 07 JEDWARD 09 09 ELLIE GOULDING 10 06 JLS SFG never sold well on physical (thank goodness)!

It would seem a good idea, it this particular chart was used by Independant Radio instead of that awful BigTop40. I also like the way, that both versions of Empire State Of Mind are lumped together.

I`ve amended the post Ben. You are right, the single never got released! A artist/title mix up by the team.

Unfotunate mistake Ben. As on this print-out there are 2 nineteens, as listed Agnes/Alphabeat/Gaga/Marina. I guess Agnes was a print error, as there are the 2 A initials, and wasn`t it supposed to be On And On, for Agnes. I seem to have a title of On My Heart, surely some mistake! And not made up as our learned friend says! :lol:

It was re-ssued in 1994, after being used in some deoderant commercial 23 12 I KNOW HIM SO WELL - ELAINE PAIGE/BARBARA DICKSON the Lloyd Webber combi, that couldn`t go wrong, and it came from the musical "Chess" 24 20 DANCING IN THE DARK - BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN Bruce`s re-issue from 1984, and 1985 turned out to be his year in the UK, after a string of flops 25 42 COVER ME - BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN beside himself with joy, then! 26 15 METHOD OF MODERN LOVE - DARYL HALL/JOHN OATES the Philadelphia duo, who deserved so much more in the UK, and never really got it. It was hard being a male Yankee, in Britain wasn`t it? 27 NE SHAKESPEARE`S SISTER - SMITHS Morrisey and the gang, and getting radioplay on Independant Stations! 28 35 THE HEAT IS ON - GLEN FREY the Detrot born Eagles member, on a solo trip, a la Don Henley 29 54 COULD IT BE I`M FALLING IN LOVE - DAVID GRANT/JAKI GRAHAM Hackney meets Birmingham, with David (ex-Linx) and Jaki getting her first hit. A cover of "Ain`t Nobody" swelled her career in the U.S. in 1994 30 24 FALLEN ANGELS RIDING - DAVID ESSEX David Cooke the Actor/Singer/Superstar from Godspell to Evita, who released his first single in 1963. What was it called, you say? "And The Tears Came Tumblin`Down" is the answer. He was just 16, and this year he`s 63...and very tongue in cheek, as ever! Only the top 30 aired on the Network Chart in 1985, as David smoothey Jensen glanced into his Crystal Ball to predict 3 entries in the following week`s show. Those were "Now That We Found Love" from Third World, "Spend The Night" from the Cool Notes, & "Love Is A Battlefield" with Pat Benatar. All of them cracked the top 30, the next week. Wasn`t the programme so much better, than Radio One`s dire Richard Skinner, and the week behind chart?! Actually from memory...I believe this week in 1985, Timmy Mallet did the Network Top 30, and not the Kid...I was not listening to either show, mainly because there was a Wednesday Countdown on Radio Mercury with Pat Sharp, and quite superior. Strange how Pat, became the Kid`s stand in from 1989-1993! And Pat (of course) had previously worked for Radio One, between 82/83, and also presented Top Of The Pops. This Mercury Top 40, actually featured a midweek chart...possibly the first broadcasted, and lasted well into the 90s. An idea poached by Capital Radio in 1991, when all of a sudden Neil Fox presented a Wednesday show between 7.30 & 10pm. Clive Warren was his stand-in. And (of course) he became Mark Goodier`s stand in, around 1995...before the not so good Scott Mills. Clive Warren returned to local radio in the late 1990s, turning up around the Berkshire areas, and last heard on Reading 107fm.

Some said that Justin, would finish up in front of Rihanna. It can`t happen because it`s only available on iTunes, and Rihanna cracks out ahead on every other site, despite iTunes being the biggest, and most expensive!
