The Girls Aloud Takeover

Rylan welcomes Cheryl, Kimberley, Nadine and Nicola for a Girls Aloud takeover.

Cheryl, Nicola, Kimberley and Nadine take a break from their reunion tour for this Bank Holiday special in which they are joined by Radio 2’s very own superfan, Rylan. The show is packed with classic Girls Aloud hits, and they each pick their own ultimate feelgood track from other artists. With Rylan at the helm, this is two hours packed with nostalgia, laughter, and also poignant memories as they pay tribute to the late and much-missed Sarah Harding.

Answering questions from fans sent in ahead of the show, they’ll be sharing memories of their ups and downs since winning Pop Stars: The Rivals in 2002. Rylan remembers it vividly and has followed the girls ever since, and he wants to know all of the backstage stories and behind-the-scenes gossip from the music videos, onstage mishaps and winning a Brit Award, they may even compare notes on going through the process of appearing on a live television talent show.

Celebrity fans also seize the moment to put their burning question to them... find out what comedian Alan Carr, singer Olly Alexander, an anonymous member of McFly and Pop Stars: The Rivals host Davina McCall had to know the answer to!
