Sam Bailey has been crowned the winner of X Factor 2013, but ever since Rage Against the Machine raged against the Cowell machine (in terms of Christmas sales), it’s not the guaranteed number one spot it was only a few years ago.

At the moment, odds are on for Lily Allen to take the spot with her cover version of Keane's 'Somewhere Only We Know' (from the John Lewis ad).

Sure, you drink sherry and dance along merrily to them, but how much do you really know about the UK's Christmas number ones?

Take our festive quiz.

All based on UK Christmas number ones since 1952
