Key to my Life was also my first single and Said and Done (on tape, I assume!?) was my first album. saw them christmas '95 in the Point and many times afterwards. Sean Maguire and Peter Andre amongst their support acts. I do believe it was Shane in the cast as I remember that from a video of theirs that I bought. My husband once asked me who my favourite was as a teenager and I said Steve and he goes "oh so Steve was the one you wanted to have sex with?" I was horrified! NOOOOO!!! I wanted him to hold my hand and be nice to me!!!!! I haven't watched the doc and think now I don't want to

God it’s so funny how innocent those early boy band crushes are! Very much I would maybe like a hug and to hold hands rather than anything else! It is a very good doc in fairness and it’s lovely to see the lads, the parts about Stephen’s funeral are tough going but I’m glad I watched it. And obviously you’ll also want to kill Louis with your bare hands but that goes without saying

Agreed on all the things except Stephen was my favourite. I went to see them several times in Manchester and then tried to deny that fact for years when I became an 'indie kid'. God love them all.

I too love Power Wash Simulator on the Switch! I still haven't quite got the hang of the controls, though, and I keep shooting water up into the sky 😣

It really says something that Louis Walsh is one of theee worst people ever to manage a band. Fully on board with your hammer chase.

The ferris wheel really is so satisfying to clean though.
