given the headphones previ ously worn by the chart topping popstar. The opportunity to be
interviewed or the pro gramme was ju s t one of many highlights the quintet enjoyed during their time in
London. Two chauffeur driven
limousines had met the party, including Laura's mum, Mrs Angela Beggs, and Katie's mum, Mrs Denise Holden, at Euston Station and taken them to their hotel. The following day the girls were taken to the Pineapple Dance Studio where they were met by the choreographer and put through their paces while the mums went shopping. After lunch it was back
to work, but this time with full camera crew, as well as light and sound technicians. "The girls were fantas
