S Club 7 are reportedly in the process of talks to get back together for a new reunion reality TV show.

The band was initially high on the list for the next series of ITV 2’s Big Reunion but plans for this have been dashed after it was revealed that their former management at 19 Entertainment are planning to do their own reality show starring the band.

The show is said to be in the same style as the one that Steps did for Sky Living.

An insider said of the plans for the show: "The Big Reunion was such an incredible success the first time round that ITV are currently signing up bands for the second series.

"S Club were very high on their list, but getting them seems to have been scuppered by this latest move.

"To be fair to 19 Entertainment, they created S Club 7 so there's no reason why ITV should be making a load of money bringing them back together.

"Approaches have been made and it looks like the S Club boys and girls will all jump at the chance to get involved."

The source continued to say: "There are still a few things to iron out, but everyone is very hopeful this will be a goer. While a few of them have done mini reunions over the years, they have never got all seven back together.

"If the show comes off, it will be similar in format to Steps Reunion and will capture the ups and downs of the band as they meet up again and start performing.

"It's a bit of a kick in the teeth for ITV and The Big Reunion, but it's sure to make great television."
