A special show celebrating 60 years of the UK singles chart, with guest Martin Talbot of the Official Charts Company. There's been lots of talk about how relevant the chart is, but with more than ever singles now being sold; 3.5 million a week, it's clear that pop music is still hugely important. Liz discusses this with Martin, looking at how the chart has evolved and where it may be heading.
Listeners will be sharing the first singles they ever bought.
