Iconic OO's band S Club 7 are allegedly gearing up for a nationwide tour to celebrate their 20th anniversary as a band, despite splitting up 16 years ago.

The group – made up of Rachel Stevens, Jo O' Meara, Tina Barrett, Jon Lee, Bradley McIntosh, Paul Cattermole, and Hannah Spearritt, split in 2003, after Paul left the band.

A source told The MirrorOnline, “There is talks in between band members now about doing a reunion arena tour next year.

“A lot of the bandmates are up for it. It's still early days but they are talking and fans may be in for a treat in 2020.

“It all makes perfect sense for a reunion celebrating 20 years of S Club 7."

Paul Cattermole then

Back in the late '90s/early '00s, Paul was the absolute heartthrob of the band. The combination of the piercings, that 'Reach' middle eight and those oh-so-trendy bucket hats he used to wear catapulted him into proper popstar crush territory.

After admitting he's now strapped for cash, Paul recently tried to sell his old BRIT Awards for S Club 7's work on eBay. He also claimed he's available for reality TV appearances (though nobody's taken him up on the offer) and is planning a pop comeback with a covers album. He's just landed the lead role in the West End musical School of Rock.

Hannah Spearritt then

Back then Paul's ex-girlfriend AKA the human we were most jealous of ever. The moment that relationship was as good as announced with a kiss on Hollywood 7, we ripped up our S Club posters. Before asking our dad to buy that issue of Smash Hits again.

Hannah went down the telly route post-pop career. Her most notable role was Abby Maitland in Primeval; with her since joining the cast of EastEnders briefly.

Jon Lee then

Who could forget the iconic blond curtains? That's peak '90s popstar aesthetic, right there.

Since his S Club days, Jon's made quite the name for himself in musical theatre. But forget his roles in the West End productions of Les Mis and Jersey Boys; it's got to be his appearance on ITVBe's Dinner Date he's best known for. A classic!

Bradley McIntosh then

If we're all completely honest with ourselves, Miami 7 was all about Bradley.

Bradley's still very much in the music industry and continues to represent the brand in S Club 3; touring student unions and stuff alongside Jo O'Meara and Tina Barrett. Oh, and he was put into a group called Upper Street alongside Dane Bowers (Another Level), Jimmy Constable (911) and Danny Wood (New Kids on the Block) for MTV's Totally Boyband back in 2006. That one didn't quite work out, though.

Jo O'Meara then

Jo was undoubtedly the voice of the band (and consequently took lead vocals) back in the day. She also notably had 'the flow'!

Jo's solo material - including debut single 'What Hurts the Most' (same as the Cascada song) - didn't quite live up to expectations and flopped, unfortunately. She's now touring with S Club 3 after a controversial Celebrity Big Brother appearance in 2007 and filing for bankruptcy in 2014.

Tina Barrett then

Tina was the 'choreographer' of the group back in their CBBC days and famously wore that dress to the premiere of S Club's Seeing Double movie in 2003.

She's still in S Club 3!

And Rachel Stevens has already said she's down for another reunion tour, after the band decided to come back together once again for a one off tour in 2015.

Admitting to Fabulous Online that she loved reuniting with the band, Rachel said, "Yeah I would do it again. The reunion tour was brilliant, it was an amazing success and it was so much fun, lovely to be back with everyone."

"There’s a lot of nostalgia for S Club, it was such a positive part of my life and we had a real celebration of S Club last time we did it.

"So I definitely wouldn’t say no but everyone’s busy doing their own thing.

"The reunion tour was just brilliant so if it’s something which would happen again then great."

Since 2015, Jo, Tina and Bradley formed SC3, where they toured around the country performing some of S Club's biggest hits as well as their own music.
