Synopsis
Kids' talent show. Phone or text to vote for your favourite!
H and Claire. You can't vote for them, but then again would you want to?Key moments
No matter how good the actual acts were, the show was always spoilt by the horrible moment toward the end of the programme when the previous week's winner was announced. Why? Because all of the winners' supposed "reactions" to being "told the news" had actually been recorded long in advance, before the original show even aired. Cue the same hideous doing-what's-expected-of-them, blatantly non-spontaneous hands-over-eyes routine every single time. Second series included.
Trivia
The first series was re-versioned (i.e. the voting details edited out) and repeated under the title Summer Steps.
The second series was cleverly titled Steps II the Stars. Do you see?
The other members of Steps (Lisa Scott Lee, Faye Tozer and Lee Latchford Evans) only appeared in the obligatory end-of-show band performance.
