55: Pop Idol Series 1 - Will Young, Gareth Gates, Sarah Whatmore, Rosie Ribbons, Darius

We hope it's a big 'YES' from you when we say we're covering the UK's Pop Idol Series 1! This year marks 20 years since this iconic star-making competition series crowned its first winner - the incredibly gifted and enduring talent, Will Young - in front of 14 million viewers. It also gave us beloved faves like Gareth Gates, Zoe Birkett, Darius, Sarah Whatmore, Rosie Ribbons and Eurovision legend Jessica Garlick... to name just a few! Romford's most prolific #TeamWill campaigner Joel takes Aussie expat David on a nostalgic profile of the Series 1 finalists - with a very honourable and essential mention of Sarah Whatmore. Your fave 2000s pop duo gets right into the debut eras of these artists - including Will's chart-topping album "From Now On", Gareth's smash "What My Heart Wants to Say", Darius' breezy pop classic 'Colourblind', and Rosie Ribbons' recently unearthed lost debut album "Misbehaving" - featuring the fizzy singles 'Blink' and 'A Little Bit'.  So get those blonde highlights sorted, top up your Nokia prepaid phones, and have your 'VOTE WILL' and 'VOTE GARETH' numbers handy... because this is one trip back to 2001 you don't want to miss.
