The following list shows the videos in order of their views in the UK – with their listed global views above.

1. Liverpool vs Barcelona (4-0), Uefa Champions League Highlights, BT Sport

Global views: 9.8million

Liverpool’s UEFA Champions League defeat against Barcelona was the most popular video on YouTube for UK users in 2019.

2. No More Lies, James Charles

Global views: 48million

The James Charles x Tati Westbrook drama hooked the world, so it’s no surprise his video spilling the tea is up there as one of the top viewed.

The pair fell out when Tati posted her infamous (since deleted) “BYE SISTER” video accusing James Charles of all sorts. He lost millions of subscribers, then shared his side of the story in the “No More Lies” video and the world seemed to turn on Tati instead. It really was a lot.

Here’s a condescended explainer of the Tati X James Charles drama.
