When I Was 25 Series 1

Claire takes Vinny back to Christmas 2001 and the end of an era. Nothing would be the same again. But would Claire still make the decision to leave if she was doing it over again?

Pop and opera singer Claire Richards takes Vinny back to the Christmas of 2001 and the end of an era. As she walked into the dressing room and handed over her letter of resignation from the band she loved dearly, nothing would be the same again. But would Claire still make the decision to leave if she was doing it over again? Claire talks about the journey with the band that brought her to breaking point and how things have now come full circle.
