The TOTP countdown.(TOTP news special)
January 1 1964
Top Of The Pops launches, originally transmitted from a converted church in Manchester and commissioned for just six shows.
Jimmy Savile hosts the first show, which features The Roiling Stones, Dusty Springfield, The Dave Clark Five, The Hollies and The Beatles.
1964 The show's first producer, Johnnie Stewart, instigates a set of rules which means the public play a large part in programming TOTP--the number one record, highest entry and climber are always featured, records going down are never featured and non-movers can only be played if they don't move for four weeks. No record but the number one can be featured on consecutive programmes.
1967 The show, which is broadcast on Thursday nights on BBC1 at 7.30pm, moves from Manchester to Lime Grove in London. Flick Colby's Pan's People make their dancing debut to Tommy James & The Shondells' Mony Mony.
1972 CCS's version of Whole Lotta Love replaces the original signature tune--a percussion piece written by Johnnie Stewart and Harry Rabinowitz.
1973 The classic 1970s branding is introduced. It is retained until 1985.
