NOBODY'S ON TOP OF THE POPS

Just heard: Top of the Pops is being axed this summer.

The BBC TWO experiment hasn't taken, and with the international versions and other spin-offs dropping, it's not had much of a function to perform providing footage for other outlets.

Even so, it's going to leave a bit of a hole. It might have become functionally unwatchable, but it was nice to know it was there.

Unless, of course, this is a Heinz Salad Cream type "axing" designed to try and rally support for a brand in trouble. We suspect, though, that it's not. It's all a bit of a shame.
