1. The Curse of the Girl Band

Girl groups never used to do well on The X Factor but Little Mix ended that cycle. In this episode, Jade, Leigh-Anne and Perrie open up about the first two years of their career. They discuss how they overcame The X Factor's infamous 'girl band curse', and how they proved that their wings really were made to fly with their record breaking debut album. We also find out about the origins of the band when Sam chats with Beth Honan, Little Mix’s creative director on The X Factor, and Iain James, the co-writer behind some of the girls' biggest hits. From their formation in 2011 to the end of the DNA era, this is how the legend of Little Mix began.
