On November 14, the Official Singles Chart will be clocking up another No.1 when it celebrates its 70th birthday. It has seen artists like Elvis and the Beatles hold record positions.
The chart, which began in 1952, was the brainchild of Percy Dickins, who co-founded the NME that same year.
He could never have predicted that his chart of weekly record sales would still be going strong, 70 years later.
