Burnham calls for more music on TV

Secretary of State For Culture, Media and Sport Andy Burnham, has made a call for a programme 'like Top of the Pops' to be aired on British television once again.

Speaking at the In The City music conference in Manchester on 5 October 2008 he stated that TOTP was "always putting a great mix of new music before the public".

The Ting Tings have this week vocalised their support for Burnham's statement saying they would be interested in performing on a revival of Top of the Pops. The popular music show was officially axed in 2006.
