The 6th chart hosted by Dandelion Radio, first broadcast on Christmas Day and repeated cyclically throughout January 2012.

Acts familiar to Peel listeners are the Fall, Low, Broadcast, Explosions In The Sky, Half Man Half Biscuit, Darren Hayman (Hefner), and PJ Harvey, one of only two acts to have more than one entry and making her début at number 1 twenty years after her first chart appearance.

The broadcast started with the DJs choosing some of their favourite tracks that failed to make the chart.
