Look what I found on the TOTP website:
Too Many Members
The bands who don't know the meaning of the word 'ENOUGH!'....
2) S CLUB 8
As any fool knows. There are certain numbers which work well for pop bands. Five seems to be the default amount, as it allows choreographers to come up with interesting variations on the 'two at the front, three at the back' lineup. Three can work, especially if you have guitars and jump up and down a lot (hiya Busted!). But the absolute maximum is seven. As in S Club 7, who had so many members it needed a TV series to introduce them all. Add one more, and it's less a pop act and more a youth club with big ideas.
and there was also this on S Club:
Cursed by the Camera
The acts who should have said 'NO!' as soon as the Hollywood types started sniffing around.
2) S CLUB
Poor old S Club. Now here's a band who could really have made something of their time on film, seeing as they had all that experience making their TV shows. Unfortunately, the curse of the camera hit them just as hard as it did the Spicers. First the boys got busted, then they lost Paul, then Jo developed a debilitating back condition, then Rachel's dad refused to ever speak to her again, then Bradley started singing a lot more on their records. By the end of the group Tina even started to look useful and interesting. Sometimes, once you've reached for the stars, all there is left to do is fall on your bum.
