Make up your own mind about Britannia High…

  • October 20, 2008
  • Popjustice

Fancy watching Episode One of ITV1's new primetime (!) children's show, Britannia High? Well thanks to the wonders of the internet that dream can now become a reality.

"It's a dream come true" — Leona Lewis

We don't like it very much at all but we think some of you will fucking love it. You'll know in the first 30 seconds whether or not it's for you — after that point the show either gets a lot better or a lot worse depending on your outlook. Either way make sure you explore the rest of the Britannia High website, because it's full of great content. 

"I've been dreaming of this all my life" — Austin Drage

Anyway click here to watch Episode One online. It probably won't work if you're abroad eg in America, but that's what High School Musical and various other things like Spectacular! (featuring one-time Popjustice Singles Club star Simon Curtis) are for, innit.


ALSO CAN WE JUST STATE
…

…in a semi-u-turn that if it wasn't for the verses and the vocal per­form­ances through­out the whole song, opening number 'Start Of Something' would be amazing in a 1999 S Club sort of way. What we mean by this is that it has a great chorus.

A totally pointless post about Sugababes. One lacking in any sense of entertainment or news value.
