Classic Chart Show Showing On The Vault 356

The problem with going back to terrestrial tv ie itv1 is that nowadays itv1 has 4 ads an hour not three so therefore the show would be two songs shorter also the top 10 would need an ad break half way through. It wasn't long enough first time around. Also itv1 are exteremely badly run at the moment the management don't give a flying f*** about anyone or anything. So if it didn't get good viewing figures on first show it would be dropped without any warning.
 
I certainly had an introduction to some really good acts because of the Chart Show. As well as the ones in today's show there was Kula Shaker, Super Furry Animals and Air who were brought to my attention before everybody was raving about them.

I'm sure the Super Furry Animals also had a song called "Something For The Weekend" in that same year!
 
Very happy to see Chart Show return to the Vault.

Slightly disappointed that they're using those ghastly vertical side borders *and* onscreen channel logo. Last time around, someone from this forum persuaded them to switch off the logo during Chart Show broadcasts. I wonder if they'd do the same again?
 
oh yes 23daves has loads of indie charts. Good ones as well. Craydee75 and benriggers are raising the flag for the chart show uploads at the moment. Both doing an excellent job :)
 
I hate to be a pain in the arse but I'm looking for a few specific episodes. If you can help out, please PM me. Any help will be much appreciated. :)

19th August 1995 (Battle of Britpop IIRC?)
18th May 1996
22nd February 1997
19th July 1997
1st November 1997
29th November 1997
6th December 1997
15th August 1998
 
I've emailed The Vault anyway. They were quick replying last time, so hopefully I'll get one back in a couple of days.

Edit: And now we've gone straight into part 3 without an ad break- I guess the ad breaks will be inserted at the point they appear in the episode we're meant to be seeing. Presumably we'll crash into one any minute now.

Edit: ahhh.... there we go, right in the middle of a song.

Edit: And now black screen after the end of the programme. Lovely Jubbly.
 
I noticed the other days didn't play Mcfly which was New at 2 yet played older songs and it also plays the same videos in the specialist chart when it could play different ones to those shown in previous weeks.
 
Another week, no Chart Show, though at least it wasn't scheduled this week. Such a shame- a repeat run that wasn't given a chance. No on-air promotion that I'm aware of and technical problems. Such a shame- if they'd ironed out the technical problems and given it some promotion, I'm sure it could have been succesful this time.

Funnily enough, Tricky still exists, sort of. He's on Pop, with a dodgy Scottish accent (done by the same bloke who does the announcements on all the Chart Show Channels) and now called Rorry. I'm sure Tricky was actually produced by Gail Screene, but she had also been on the Chart Show production team right from the start.
 
I have a full episode from 6 December 1992 including original ads etc. Is it one of three the Vault keep replaying? If not let me know and i will upload it to my web page so at least it will give you all a different episode to view.
