The ITV show featured their own sitcom called Chums, a spoof of US series Friends.
Steps stars Ian “H” Watkins, 44, and Claire Richards, 42, hosted from 2002 to 2003.
H said: “We were probably on there more than any other band. It was almost like a youth club. We’d meet our pop peers so there would be Five or B*witched and then in the corner you’d see Mariah Carey rehearsing Chums.”
