Giants from the boyband era will take part in a new documentary on the pop music phenomenon.
Former Take That star Robbie Williams and music moguls Simon Cowell and Nigel Martin-Smith will be among the big names who will appear in three-parter Boybands Forever, set to air on BBC Two.
I exclusively revealed in April that top doc maker Louis Theroux was behind the project on the Nineties and Noughties acts, which has been made by his production company Mindhouse, which he runs with wife Nancy Strang.
He said: “I couldn’t be more thrilled about this series.
“An epic story featuring a cast of stars and star-makers, it involves some of the icons of modern British pop.
“We see them through their highs and lows, hearing from the key players, as we chart the golden years of boy bands.
“How they came together, the experience of sudden fame, the opportunity and temptations that came their way, conflicts within the groups, between the groups, and between the boys and their managers.
“It’s a gripping fable about getting everything you dreamed of, and it not being what you imagined, centred on a generation of young men, and their managers, who were wildly successful and also immensely vulnerable, having the times of their lives and also in some cases cracking up.
“Those boys we all watched singing and dancing in tight formation are now middle-aged men who have the time and the maturity to look back and reflect on what they went through.”
Other contributors include Brian McFadden of Westlife as well as members of East 17, Blue, 5ive, 911 and Damage.
Set to air this autumn, the show will also include the svengalis behind the bands including Louis Walsh, Daniel Glatman and Chris Herbert.
The breadth of people interviewed has seen Louis and his team work on the show for over a year.

Rob Rinder and Monica Galetti have travelled the globe looking at some of the world’s best hotels — but that doesn’t mean they are now too jaded to impress.
For series six of Amazing Hotels: Life Beyond the Lobby, which airs on BBC Two and iPlayer from September 12 at 8 pm, they’re jetting around from the mountains of Bhutan to the rainforests of Malaysia.
And there are plenty of locations that left the pair gobsmacked.
Rob said: “There are too many standout moments to mention.
“One hotel had windows that looked out into aquariums. Feeding the fish was a job I wasn’t expecting.
“And I didn’t quite realize how much I would enjoy a hotel in minus 50-degree conditions.”
It’s not just her family roasts that have been branded awful — Diane Carson’s desserts are even worse.
That may not bode well for The Traitors star, who is appearing before judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace on Celebrity MasterChef.
Diane — whose son Ross revealed on The Traitors: Uncloaked that she often “cremates” turkeys in the oven — said: “I once made a pavlova which only rose half a centimetre.
“My guests took it out into my garden and played frisbee with it.
“I have something to prove because during my time on The Traitors my son told the world that my Sunday roasts were awful.
“But my Sunday roasts aren’t awful.
“They are not amazing, but they are not awful.
“So I certainly want to vindicate myself in some way.”
