Christmas TOTP to be filmed today
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 12 December 2011
The ‘Top Of The Pops’ Christmas Special will be recorded later today, with Example, Pixie Lott, Rizzle Kicks, Ed Sheeran, The Wanted, Will Young, Professor Green, Olly Murs, Noah & The Whale, The Vaccines and Little Mix all expected to appear. And with Fearne Cotton and Reggie Yates hosting, what a special Christmas treat.
The Christmas chart, which comes out on Christmas Day this year, will be announced earlier in the day than normal so that the festive chart topper can be revealed at the end of ‘TOTP’ just before the Queen’s speech. Presumably they’ll pre-record a number of different endings to cover the various possible options for number one on Christmas Day. Perhaps we could all get together and force a total outsider to the top, forcing Fearne and Reggie back into the studio on Christmas Day itself.
‘TOTP’, of course, has reappeared for Christmas specials every year since its axing in 2006.
