February 1, 201312 yr Liberty X and Atomic Kitten were my 2 favourite groups of 2002 by a mile so I'm really pleased they're both on this show. Liberty X's 2nd album wasn't a patch on the 1st but I remember they released the same time as Rachel Steven's Come and Get It and couldn't believe just how badly both of them did commercially. My top 3 tracks for each Big Reunion act: 5ive 1. If Ya Gettin' Down 2. It's The Things You Do 3. Got the Feelin' Liberty X 1. Just a Little 2. Jumpin' 3. Song 4 Lovers B*Witched 1. Rollercoaster 2. Blame it on the Weatherman 3. I Shall Be There Atomic Kitten 1. The Last Goodbye 2. Right Now 3. Be With You Honeyz 1. Not Even Gonna Trip 2. End of the Line 3. Finally Found 911 1. Party People...Friday Night 2. More Than A Woman 3. Private Number
February 1, 201312 yr The Big Reunion, ITV2's new series reforming six '90s pop groups, performed well in the ratings last night. Featuring B*Witched, Liberty X, 5ive, 911, The Honeyz and Atomic Kitten, some 957,000 - a 4.1% share - reminisced in the 9pm hour as well as 271k on ITV2 +1. As well as topping the multichannel ratings ahead of How I Met Your Mother's 886k (3.9%) for E4 (+1: 187k), The Big Reunion ranks as ITV2's most-watched new show of 2013 so far.

Pleased to see that it's ITV's most watched, new show of 2013 so far though.

I always loved the girl from Solid Harmonie on the right, Celena looks a bit moody. Liberty X look genuinely pleased to be back together, Kevin gives me Gary from Miranda vibes for some reason. 911 look rather old, especially poor Jimmy, bless him :lol: Atomic Kitten look ridiculous with Kerry back but the other two look alright. B*Witched have aged alright, Lindsay remains GORGEOUS, Sinead looks quite a bit different with brown hair, she's 40 this year apparently :o Five have aged alright, Richie especially.
February 2, 201312 yr i was always a fan of the twins from B*Witched... but WOW. Lindsay's proper fit now! :o She's aged the best out of all them, for definite.
February 2, 201312 yr Finally got round to catching up on the first episode on ITV player. Really great viewing and reminded me what an amazing back catalogue 5ive had (singles wise certainly). Scott came across really well - his two little sons are like minature versions of him! He's probably not far wrong in what he was saying to one of his sons about One Direction though - more so given both have/had Simon Cowell in common. J did not come across very well though, I know there's two sides to every story but from the way the rest of them spoke about him he seems like a class A bellend. As for Liberty X...they were definitely more a singles band. I didn't think 'Everybody Cries' was a bad single...'X' however certainly was. I knew they were gonna be a gonner when they released that. Kevin seems like an utter legend...him and Kelli had the best voices in that band.
February 3, 201312 yr An arena tour might be on the cards! :D The groups involved with this show tweeted that "producers are in talks", and The Big Reunion twitter account confirmed that it's being discussed. How exciting! In other news, the final episode of the series will be the concert - a 90 minute special. :wub:
February 3, 201312 yr Sounds good, I hope the concert's longer than 90 minutes though! It will be like when ITV2 show Cheryl's concert and only show 45mins of it. Just cutting it down to the "best bits"
February 4, 201312 yr It is a shame this wasn't aired on itv itself the main channel as i think it would have been a ratings winner. Getting 1 million on itv 2 is good which indicates it would have done so much better on the main channel. Had this happened i think the participating groups would also have had a better shot at getting an extra bit of fame second time round.
February 4, 201312 yr Have been trying to predict the setlist for the reunion gig, I reckon Atomic Kitten and Five will get one song more than the other four, and it will go something like this; 1. 911 - Party People...Friday Night 2. 911 - A Little Bit More 3. 911 - More Than A Woman 4. 911 - Bodyshakin' 5. Honeyz - End Of The Line 6. Honeyz - Never Let You Down 7. Honeyz - Won't Take It Lying Down 8. Honeyz - Finally Found 9. Liberty X - Thinking It Over 10. Liberty X - Got To Have Your Love 11. Liberty X - Being Nobody 12. Liberty X - Just A Little 13. B*Witched - Rollercoaster 14. B*Witched - Blame It On The Weatherman 15. B*Witched - To You I Belong 16. B*Witched - C'est La Vie 17. Atomic Kitten - Right Now 18. Atomic Kitten - It's OK 19. Atomic Kitten - Eternal Flame 20. Atomic Kitten - The Tide Is High (Get The Feeling) 21. Atomic Kitten - Whole Again 22. Five - Everybody Get Up 23. Five - If Ya Gettin' Down 24. Five - We Will Rock You 25. Five - Let's Dance 26. Five - Keep On Movin' That would be a pretty great setlist, even though it would miss greats like Song 4 Lovers, Love Of A Lifetime, Private Number and Until The Time Is Through. I just don't see them being included :(
February 4, 201312 yr I'd be happy with that, except I'd take out Five's We Will Rock You and replace it with one of their others - probably Got The Feelin' although that's still missing Slam Dunk Da Funk (surely they'll do that one? Their lowest charting but their first hit) and When The Lights Go Out. They'd definitely include WWRY though, it's one of their #1s and they all seem quite proud of it despite their cover being one of the worst number 1s of all time :lol:
February 4, 201312 yr 'We Will Rock You' got quite a bit of air time on the show, so I think it's going to be performed (although they were saying they know that it wasn't great - so who knows?)
February 6, 201312 yr I can see them doing When The Lights Go Out actually, their only US hit, so it's probably one of the best known worldwide. I can see all acts doing the same number of songs to be honest, say five each, the only act that seems second tier or wouldn't have enough stuff seems like 911.
February 6, 201312 yr Once they perform everybody get up i will be happy as that is clearly their best single for me, my worry is didnt J have a big part in that song?
February 7, 201312 yr Not really interested in 911 but really looking forward to Atomic Kitten tonight
February 7, 201312 yr I'm disappointed they relegated Jenny as footnote, neither Tash nor Liz spoke of her, and they focused mainly on the first four singles time. Brushing over everything after Eternal Flame basically.
February 7, 201312 yr They seem to be focusing on drama rather than actual music statistics, like they did with Liberty X last week
