Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ According to The Official Charts Company and the canonical sources, chronologically, which number one it was.[1]
  2. ^ The names, singles and duration of the number-ones are those given by The Official Charts Company.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]
  3. ^ The names, singles and duration of the number-ones are from the NME.[17]
  4. ^ The names, singles and duration of the number-ones are from Top Pops (later Music Now).
  5. ^ The names, singles and duration of the number-ones are those given by The Official Charts Company.[19][20][21][22][23][24][16]
  6. ^ This number-one record was not a single but a five-track extended play (EP) with "Too Much Too Young" as the lead track.[25] The rules now require at most four distinct songs to be eligible for the UK Singles Chart.[26] Although the EP is credited to The Special A.K.A. on the record sleeve the record label credits The Specials.[27]
  7. ^ The first three weeks of this record's number-one run was from the last three charts compiled by the BMRB; its last week at number one was from the first chart compiled by Gallup. Its run is thus divided accordingly.
