Has anybody seen this? I thought it would just be a wallow in nostalgia but it was fascinating. Who knew that Gary Barlow was such an arse? Or that he would come to have such self awareness? The charisma of Robbie Williams-and the disappointment when it dawned he was hired as a dancer. And how interesting they all are now that time has passed. My dh was scornful when I started watching it- it we’ve just finished watching it together and he’s begrudgingly admitted there are some great songs-although he does have a downer on Robbie because he comes from Stoke😲.

I thought it was really disappointing. I gave up at the bit about Robbie leaving.

Have you seen the Robbie movie? That message came across very strongly in that. I didn't realise and appreciated Robbies perspective much more after that. He was the youngest at 16 I think and they've all conceded that they should have done more to look after him.
