Season 1 Episode 3 of 3

A look at the emergence of Blue, put together by manager Daniel Glatman to appeal to housewives and screaming teens alike, and of Irish band Westlife, whose manager Louis Walsh called on Simon Cowell to help turn them into world-conquering pop stars. Just as it seemed that the age of boyband was over, Take That returned and achieved enormous success, paving the way for the return of other 1990s and 2000s bands, including Blue, 911, Damage and Five
