In 1999 5ive felt Invincible, but just two years later they, and we, suffered Breakdown. For fans of the band it came as no surprise, and it became not a matter of if, but When The Lights Go Out.
However, this year, the band began Gettinâ Down and Got The Feelinâ they Donât Wanna Let Go, and now theyâre reuniting Until The Time Is Through.
They will join a whole roster of other 90s stars for a new ITV2 documentary called The Big Reunion, which will follow the bands as they rehearse for a fortnight and then perform a huge comeback show.
Rumours abound as to who the other bands might be, but it seems likely that Atomic Kitten will be Whole Again and that we might see A Little Bit More of unfortunately-named-for-the-noughties band 911.
Some other less well-known bands are also tipped to make an appearance, including Liberty X, B*Witched and early 90s girl group The Honeyz, around whom thereâs been a lot of buzz.
Liberty X are chiefly remembered from the genre-spawning reality show Popstars, and it is now often heard that they were the showâs first winners, but thatâs Hearsay, and they are actually a group formed of the same yearâs losers.
ITVâs head of digital channels Angela Jain said, âA lot has happened in the time these bands have been apart – marriages, divorces and changes in careers – and who knows quite what will happen when they reunite.â?
