**Procrastination warning**
Following watching Youtube vids on music theory, I was wondering when was the last song not in common time 4/4 to reach the UK #1?
Off the top of my head I thought Solsbury Hill but that peaked at #13
Wuthering Heights?

I haven't looked hard, but February 2010 Helping Haiti version of REM's "Everybody Hurts" in 6/8 will provide a lower limit for any further refinement.
Adele "Someone Like You" (2011) has one whole bar of 2/4 time just before the first chorus.
(I admit this is the sort of answer that gets you barred from the pub quiz)
