Is this the first Top 40 without any Teddy Swims since early 2024?

If Holy Blindfold does make top 40, will Radio 1 take the innocent until proven guilty approach and play it?

Sissal - Hallucination

Reflekt - Need To Feel Loved Anyone know why this is randomly this high up?

They used to cancel it on a Big Weekend apart from a quick rundown when the chart show was on a Sunday so the move to a Friday eliminated that problem only for it to fall victim again since last year.

Sissal now at 4! Tautumeitas up to 18 Erika up to 24

Apple Erika Vikman - Ich Komme.

JJ up to 4. Sissal up to 6. Tommy up to 12. Yuval up to 13. Miriana up to 15. Tautumeitas up to 19.

If Remember Monday do finish at or near the bottom, should the BBC bring back the public selection show?

MARRS - Pump up the Volume was temporarily ineligible because they had to replace the sample from Stock Aitken and Waterman's Roadblock which was not cleared. Still climbed to number 1 after the cleared version was released.

I thought it looked fake and unwatchable with the filmised look last year, hopefully it was a one off and that we will get interlaced live feel pictures again.

Thought it would be in Bradford as they never missed a City Of Culture year, could be possibly that Radio 2's version will be there instead.

The 2010s has seen a new generation of Christmas perennials such as Underneath The Tree, Santa Tell Me, Mistletoe, One More Sleep and Christmas Lights whilst Ed and Elton's Merry Christmas from 2021 is fast becoming part of the Christmas canon and A Nonsense Christmas although from 2023 when Sabrina was still relatively unknown has done wonders this year but do you think any of this year's new Christmas releases will be playing in superstores and shopping malls for many decades to come? This year's examples Tom Grennan - It Can't Be Christmas Perrie - Christmas Magic Ed Sheeran - Under The Tree Ava Max - 1 Wish

Another record was broken last year when 37 Christmas songs made the final top 40 of 2023 but as a lot of them have charted lower this year will the record now never be beaten? Still think it could be equalled this time with only That's So True, APT and Messy the non Christmas representatives.

Just to revive this topic, Bad Chem fades out.

Shaky not Shakin' when he's referred to by one word.

With all the talk about Sarah lately, if Javine had beaten her to the last place in Girls Aloud, would Sarah have been part of Clea instead or do you think she would started an immediate solo career? She would have ended up a footnote either way.

Why are The Veronicas this high up?

I read somewhere the other day that Club Tropicana is Wham's best known song, but how can it be if Last Christmas is totally unescapable for a month every year? Ask anyone under 35 which Wham songs they know and they would likely only answer Last Christmas. Then again I seem to remember up until around the turn of the century that Wake Me Up Before You Go Go was their most famous song.

Do you actually follow the news?

51.

Peace in Israel may be re-established anyway by then.

Bringing back a selection competition show should now be considered. Let the public decide again.

I can only see any withdrawls if Israel host it next year but if Croatia win then it we may see several Eastern countries return. Kosovo could well be debuting next year too.

Israel now 22/1 with a few bookies.
