An almost complete chart was kindly provided by Kees Brinkerink. He compiled it by listening to various recordings of shows broadcast by Swinging Radio England during this week in 1966 and
with the help of his friend Hans Evers who made a note of some chart placings at the time. There were a few gaps which we have now been able to fill with the help of a chart from Hans Blaauwbroek via Mary Payne (see note
here). With thanks to them all.
