Am currently greatly enjoying the million sellers. Worth doing a similar show again from time to time?

Ian,

I heard the show in the car. I was pleasantly surprised.


I reckon a "One Hit Wonders" countdown would also be worth a try, too.

Maybe, but only as a "One off" though.... Laughing

The format will need to change if he gets an extra 30 minutes. Perhaps they will go back to featuring 2 seperate years each week?

If they leave the format as it is, you'll get all the Top 20 every week.

If called for, you could include more new releases and album tracks to fill the time.

Why not use the extra 30 minutes to give us historical snippets from the news and stuff? I.e - "1986 was the year of the Chenobyl disaster. It was also the same year BSE struck Britain's cattle".

Didn't the old Radio 5 (before it became 'Live') do that?
