Episode 2
A 60s girl band reunite with their favourite boy band, ex-addict Simon meets the man who turned his life around and Ellie thanks a teacher who was her rock after a terror attack.
A 1960s girl band who toured the world in their heyday check in, hoping Alex can reunite them with the boy band they can’t forget. The Fabs were the first all-female band from Wales, brought together inspired by the success of the Beatles. Breaking through in a male-dominated industry was difficult, but one Swedish boy band recognised their talents and left a big impression on the all-girl group.
54 years since the Fabs and the Moonlighters were together, the three surviving members come to this one-of-a-kind hotel keen to see them again. Having travelled all the way from Stockholm to north Wales, with Eurovision and US hits behind them, the Moonlighters are just as excited.
For over 20 years, Simon was addicted to drugs and alcohol. Now 16 years clean and sober, he wants to meet Stuart, the addiction clinic worker who gave him the support and belief to overcome his addiction. Simon needs Stuart to know that he wouldn’t have got to where he is today without the kindness and humanity he showed him back then. It will be the first time Stuart has seen him clean.
Ellie, 19, survived the Manchester Arena attack when she was just 13 years old. Although she escaped physically unharmed, she was traumatised by the horror of that night and the guilt of surviving when so many others were injured and lost their lives. A light in those dark times for Ellie was her music teacher Ms Williams, whose classroom became a refuge. But Ms Williams eventually changed jobs and city and they haven’t seen each other for six years. Now Ellie wants Ms Williams to know the huge impact she had.
