S Club Search was a CBBC reality television show that documents the audition process and formation for the pop group S Club Juniors in 2001. The original concept was that the children would perform at Wembley as a support act to S Club 7 on their S Club 7 Carnival 2002 tour, but their appearance at Wembley was considered such a success that 19 Entertainment, the management company that had created S Club 7 and auditioned S Club Juniors, decided they should perform as a support act at all of the venues on the Carnival tour.[1] Following the tour, the eight (formally nine) children went on to form the group "S Club Juniors" (later renamed to "S Club 8") and had six top ten UK hits.[2]
Originally, only seven children were supposed to be chosen, but the judges (including S Club 7) were so impressed by Hannah Richings and Aaron Renfree’s performances, that they asked them to join the band the following day after the initial selection.
Connor Daley was removed from the group during the rehearsal period due to inappropriate behaviour towards the other members. He later appeared on the kids’ version of Stars in their eyes, but did not win. He can be seen in the first two episodes of S Club Search. [3]
