History
The programme was a sitcom based around the band members (who played themselves) living together and trying to become famous. The programme changed its name to reflect the location it was set in: Miami 7, LA 7, Hollywood 7, and finally Viva S Club, set in Spain. During each episode, the members would perform one of the songs from their current album. It was created and partially written by Kim Fuller, who also created and wrote the Spice Girls' movie. They also made a hit with their 2003 film, Seeing Double.
The show also became a big hit in the United States, where it originally aired on Fox Family and later on ABC Family. The series were retitled S Club 7 in Miami, S Club 7 in L.A., S Club 7 in Hollywood and Viva S Club.
The three male members of S Club 7 were arrested in London after being found with a small ammount of cannabis on March 20, 2001[1]. The three individuals were cautioned by police at Charing Cross police station but released without charge.
