UK Top 40 Singles Chart for Sunday 7th November 1993

So this was the chart that Radio 1 DJ Bruno Brookes broadcast from 4pm-7pm with data from the GALLUP computer based on record sales from Monday 1st to Saturday 6th November 1993.

This is how the charts USED to look with new entries, climbers and non-movers, all based solely on record purchases.
This week, thirty years ago, there were twelve new entrys, two re-entry’s, nine climbers and three non-movers! And it was announced like this…
