This week we're bringing back not one but TWO 'popstars' from the 00s. Join David and Joel as they revisit the groundbreaking 2001 UK "Popstars" TV series and the journeys of its winning group Hear'Say and runner-up Liberty X.

From Hear'Say's explosive record-breaking debut single 'Pure & Simple' to Liberty X's contrasting garage-infused 'Thinking It Over', Right Back At Ya! traverse the rise and fall of both bands at the dawn of reality TV talent shows. We look back on all the hype and backlash - from Kym Marsh leaving Hear'Say to Liberty X winning their BRIT Award for 'Just A Little' and all the singles you might've forgotten along the way… we've got you covered.
