Each episode, we look at six hit singles that were in the same position in the UK Top 10 exactly ten years apart, from the 1960s through to the 2010s. We talk about them, you vote for them, and points are awarded to the decades which they represent. As the episodes roll on, the votes roll in, and the points stack up, which decade will ultimately emerge as Tops For Pops?

Yakketty twiddles connect Sinatra to Toto - Jehovah is ditched for Je$u$ - bouncing back from a horticultural hitch, Stevie gives a timely boost to Michael's big bro - a Bono-blessed cover reminds us of when downtempo was peak-time - thrillingly punctuated, perplexingly dialogued sass without agency - and a poignant elegy for the days of getting sloshed in chain bars.
