Join Juliet and Ed as they travel back in time by thirty years and count down the UK Top 40 Singles Chart as it was announced on 6th October 1996!

Last time out, 'Breakfast At Tiffany's' had climbed to the top spot, but this week there are several blockbusters looking to dislodge it, from Babybird, The Beautiful South, Luther Vandross, Manic Street Preachers and Super Furry Animals, plus a track described as sounding like "a fire alarm on a crashing 747" featuring The Man of 1996, Noel Gallagher.
