I know I have asked this question before, but the reply I got was incorrect, so I will ask it once more. Name the artist (not band) to have the most Top Ten entries in the U.K chart without ever achieving an actual No. I?

The Guinness Book of British Hit Singles tells me that Nat King Cole achieved eighteen top ten entries in the UK without ever making the top {spot;} however, one might only count sixteen of them, as one of those songs was a re-entry, and another was a re-issue, which would bring the total down to sixteen, putting him on a level par with Janet Jackson, who had this many top ten hits without a number one.

gary	The charts are compiled on a weekly basis so every week is classed as a new Top Ten and even if the song is re-issued makes no difference to the actual answer of Nat King Cole. Jan 29 03, 8:39 PM

True enough... BTW, Siskin - It was not my intention to appear as though I was attempting to contradict the information you have given - While you had already answered, I was still dawdling trying to get my facts in order! I'm gonna sign off quickly now, before dot comes back again to tell us off for kissing each other (if you recall!) Jan 29 03, 9:37 PM

Name the artist to have the most top ten hits in the U.K charts without ever having attained an actual No. I hit? I know I have asked this already, without a reply, I'd like to re-ask it, as I need to find out an answer to this. When was the last full season Arsenal played primarily in yellow socks? Once there were over 1000 of these on the world but now there are less than ten.
