With only 4 months left of the year (where does the time go?!) tonight’s show rewound us back to the beginning of 2015 and the first number one hit which was the catchy collaboration of Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars – Uptown Funk!
We then went through the months seeing what other artists have made the top spot and how long they were there for before being knocked off!
Jess Glynne has done amazingly well this year with three number one singles and of course Uptown Funk is the reigning champ for the longest lead with 7 weeks!
