The previous series did too, so it's hardly news.

From TVC? Thought it had only just reopened?

The first series was from TVC too. And had it in the titles.

Right. My apologies. Never seen it before. As you were.

A nice mention from Greg for “Television Centre”.

And aren’t there half some whinging people on Twitter, desperate for TOTP to return?! I may be stereotyping a bit but they do seem to be an older generation, looking through their rose-tinted glasses who probably wouldn’t like most of the tracks in the current chart anyway!

SLFN is a decent attempt for live prime time music and definitely got better through the series. This first show was very slick and watchable.

Totally agree Asa. Had totally missed the first series, so was very very impressed last night.

As you say, very slick, and Greg & Dotty are both really good. Yes they could have titled it TOTP but that would have restricted the show to covering much more chart music and the number one. Move on I say.

Looks definitely like a change to the music policy this series - heading far more mainstream. Not sure a show like that will ever really find a huge audience - but then music shows on UK TV don't rate.

Well it won't if it's on at the same time as Coronation Street!

Which gives them a different justification for it not rating Wink

How much of TVC can you walk around since it opened? The front seemed very busy last Friday afternoon around lunchtime.

All of the forecourt and around Helios, I think. A three-day opening festival started about 15 minutes ago.
