when did the full countdown at the end finish?Realy builds up excitement.Takes me back.It is a wonder that Bruno and Mark were not out of breath aftwr rundows like this. The 6.50 event was the highlight of my radio week.With the jingles it is something I miss

The last final recap before the No.1 of the entire 40 was One of the Sundays in October 2007. One other point. I eventually found out from another collector that the final rundowns were actually pre-recorded.

@@Malubvra Whereas now, Scott Mills has brought it back, but only in a 20 to 3 recap over the chart show theme, before the number two and number one singles. I'd do it the other way around, by doing the complete countdown (40 to 3) and then do the Top 2 and then conclude the show.

I use to tape the Radio 1 Top 40 nearly every Sunday at 4pm on my stereo and use to love listening to Bruno and Marks run down and use to do this thing by holding the play button slightly down and hearing like the chip monks doing the chart run down 😂
