Episode 1 of 6

Why are they finding childcare issues so problematic? Why can't LSL's husband and/or children relocate? Faye, Clare and LSL have enough kids between them to arrange for fantastic support for 2 1/2 months preparation and then the 3 month tour.

Clare's husband seems like a misogynistic dollop; he had a point about the issues that caused her to quit still being the same though. Lee and Ian seems to have supportive partners, the girls not so much - maybe because they have children?

LSL does not come across well on these programmes. I work from home, sometimes with a young child present. She was very unprofessional imho. Do they both work in Dubai?

I am watching now. It's all getting a bit yawnsome isn't it?

Sparklingbrook · 22/05/2012 13:12

Steps sing Lady Gaga? Kylie? Confused

Sparklingbrook · 22/05/2012 13:29

poor H. Sad

Oooh next week's looks vaguely interesting.

Mrsjay · 22/05/2012 13:33

Im sure the devil you know was on a steps album the same time as kylie had it out sparkling

daenerysstormborn · 22/05/2012 14:08

i warmed to LSL a bit more when i saw her with her mum. also wondered if the comments during the bits where they were going through the reviews, had been heavily edited. poor H, having lost 2 myself, i feel his pain Sad

SpanishFly · 22/05/2012 14:47

God, poor, poor H. Hard enough in the first trimester, but 16 weeks? Jeeez, poor soul.

Re LSL, does anyone think she's a good dancer? She's meant to be the best dancer, but she always looks quite jerky and not at all natural.

Oh, and I believe LSL and her cheat of a husband are property developers in Dubai. I'm sure she said she wanted to invest her cash to give them a secure future.

Just watching this now. Am I the only one that thinks the children should be wearing seatbelts when they are on the coach?

Mrsjay · 22/05/2012 20:57

yes and in booster seats i was TUTTING at them last night

PigeonPair · 22/05/2012 21:11

Ha Ha me too. Love the way they kept focusing on Clare eating the pizza. All the others were just seen chewing but they kept showing her shoving it in.

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 23/05/2012 12:50

I am watching this and really enjoying it Blush

I love Clare and H - cant stand Lee and LSL, no real feelings about Fay!

Poor Clare though and yes, I did notice then keep zoooming in on her eating that pizza...good for her though at least she isnt conforming to the notion of looking like a twig!!

I wish LSL would stop banging on about how hurt she was and how betrayed she felt..christ sake woman, they didnt want to be in the band anymore - GET OVER IT.....

robotcornysilk · 23/05/2012 17:16

I know - what did they expect them to do - carry on even though they hated it? You can kind of understand why they resigned and ran ... they others would have been a nightmare!

bigredtractor · 23/05/2012 20:46

But no- one seems interested in why they left? Maybe they'd have more chance of staying together this time!

bigredtractor · 23/05/2012 20:48

If they bothered to ask, I mean! Nobody seems to care why they were so unhappy that they quit...

Biscuitsandtea · 24/05/2012 10:59

Maybe the reason was in The Letter - do you think we'll get to see what was in it when Lee mysteriously produces it.... ConfusedHmm

daenerysstormborn · 24/05/2012 11:52

LSL has been a bit drama queen about it all. she did seem more relaxed tho after the manchester gig, put demons to rest maybe?

Pinkjenny · 27/05/2012 21:50

Ah, poor H. I am desperate for Claire to tell them all to fuck off. She's not going to though, is she. I loved Steps, and I really enjoyed the concert, and of course i adore Claire, but not in a million years would I buy a Christmas album. Noooooooo.

HokeyCokeyPigInaPokey · 28/05/2012 20:01

First minute and LSL is off with her woe is me i have trust issues FFS!

HokeyCokeyPigInaPokey · 28/05/2012 20:09

If she hates leaving her children so much why doesn't she get another bloody job?!

She doesn't have to do this.

Artesia · 28/05/2012 22:08

Please tell me someone else spotted the close up of the little pot of seasoning Claire used when she was making the lasagne??? I had to rewind to make sure I hadn't misread it. Possibly not to everyone's taste.....and am pretty sure they don't sell it in my Waitrose!

HokeyCokeyPigInaPokey · 28/05/2012 22:08

No i didn't see it, what was it?

stressheaderic · 28/05/2012 22:14

I may have to rewind to inspect.

Wot a cliffhanger. Will they, won't they? Top series. Claire's husband creeped me out.
I bet Lee doesn't tell any of his business acquaintances he's in Steps.
LSL is the most miserable woman on this earth.

Artesia · 28/05/2012 22:27

Was "c*ck flavoured seasoning" according to the packaging.....clearly spotted by one of the crew, who you can see moving it half way through the scene! Am now wondering if that is the vital missing ingredient in my lasagne Grin

HokeyCokeyPigInaPokey · 28/05/2012 22:29

Was it?!

Dh said my lasagne was a bit bland last time i made it bloody bastard maybe that's what i need!

Stinkyfeet · 28/05/2012 22:34

Yep, I spotted it! Also had to rewind as thought I must have misread it!

Dee03 · 28/05/2012 22:46

Jesus they dragged that out!!
That whole series could've been reduced to a 1 hour programme!!
