I'm watching this at the minute and it's completely different from the actual top 40. It has been since monday. Songs have moved chart positions from the UK Hot 40 that was shown last week so it's not a repeat of last week's but it doesn't match up with the offical top 40 that was announced on Sunday.

I can't stand these unofficial charts. You hear them on all the commercial stations and I do wonder who they are targeting? Surely anybody with even the smallest interest in the charts would rather listen to the official chart.

Do you remember before the BigTop40Show the comercial stations showed Hit40UK? Well it may have stopped on radio but it continued on the some music channels like The Box, 4Music, SmashHits! and VIVA

Its not the same as the Official Chart as Hot40UK only uses Airplay and downloads.

The radio show counted down the top 40 songs in the chart. Unlike the official UK Singles Chart broadcast at the same time by BBC Radio 1, the Hit40UK chart included only the digital downloads and airplay in the UK, whereas the official chart includes physical and download sales with no radio airplay.
