The move to take Top Of The Pops absolutely live is the key part of a huge overhaul for the BBC's flagship music TV show, which celebrates its 40th anniversary next year.

New executive producer Andi Peters is planning a raft of changes to the show, which is being rebranded as All New Top Of The Pops from November 28.

Peters--who has installed an enlarged production team at BBC TV Centre--is also planning to:

* reduce the number of performances to around seven;

* increase the amount of editorial content;

* introduce a regular weekly anchor person;

* launch new theme music, branding, logo and set.
