More music on mainstream telly is welcome but this is basically a 'An Audience with...' type of thing so just one act per episode. I think there's still a place for a chart based show, which provides structure but at the same time makes it look less constructed. TOTP in the end was mostly songs/artists that weren't even in the charts and it became very selective and like a Spotify playlist, i.e. this is the music we want you to like even though there are others who are popular. For a show this week, I would have Taylor Swift, Pearl Jam, UB40 etc which is how it ought to be.
