There was a Motown division called Tamla-Motown, that distributed US recordings as well as a number of UK labels under it's umbrella such as Gull. The 1960's Motown started in the UK by using various labels: Stateside, Fontana, London and Oriole before starting it's own Tamla-Motown label.
Take That has had 12 number 1 singles in the UK.
Tinchy Stryder has achieved one number one hit in the UK.

UK Tamla-Motown singles and albums are listed here: www.collectablecds.co.uk/label-discography.asp/label/5/Tamla-Motown-records-discography.html Tamla-Motown only started issuing Motown records in the UK in 1965; before that, a number of British labels licensed Motown content, but I don't think there's a single consolidated list anywhere on the Internet. A complete discography of US Motown singles (on all the various imprints, Gordy, Tamla, Soul, VIP etc) can be found at www.seabear.se/detroit1.htm
Tamla Motown was the name used to market Motown Records' music in the United Kingdom during the 1960s. It combined the Tamla label, which was one of the original labels of Motown, with the Motown brand to promote its artists and recordings across the Atlantic. This branding helped popularize Motown's distinctive sound and artists, such as The Supremes and Marvin Gaye, in the UK and beyond, contributing significantly to the global reach of the Motown label.
They didn't "record" on a Motown label as such, but some of their UK recordings were licensed for release in the USA by the Motown group's new "white rock" label, Rare Earth Records, in 1969.
