On the cusp of the new millennium, the 大象传媒鈥檚 long-running music show continued to offer all the best pop music every week on the nation鈥檚 TV screens. In this final look back at the 1990s, there's everything from observing the rules of certain dance routines to how the weather changed everything for Travis.

Also, US divas grace the studio in the shape of Whitney, Britney and Beyonce, the influence of Ibiza and the rise of UK garage, how a particular phrase entered the UK鈥檚 vocabulary, and Top of the Pops goes on tour before a final move from Elstree back to the iconic west London 大象传媒 TV Centre.

Contributors include Fran Healy of Travis, Claire Richards and Lee Latchford-Evans of Steps, Gail Porter, R贸is铆n Murphy, Neil Hannon of The Divine Comedy, Mark Hill and Pete Devereux of Artful Dodger, Ben Ofoedu of Phats & Small, and Tony Wright of Terrovision.
