Boyzone: Life, Death & Boybands S1

They were one of the most successful and iconic boybands of all time – but behind the scenes, conflict and rivalry, betrayal and tragedy led to their falling apart. Now, 30 years on, Boyzone: Life, Death and Boybands sits down with all four remaining members of the band, as well as their estranged manager, Louis Walsh, to reveal the truth of what really happened, the extraordinary highs of their meteoric rise to fame, and the huge costs of global stardom.  
 
Boyzone: Life, Death & Boybands examines the key events that shaped the band, including the intense tabloid intrusion in 90s Britain, which forced Stephen Gately to come out and, after a sensational comeback in 2007, the devastating tragedy of Stephen’s death. With raw and candid honesty, band members Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, Shane Lynch and Michael Graham confront the strained relationships between them in exclusive interviews, revealing their personal experiences in a band that sold over 25 million records worldwide. 

The three-part mini-series has an 8/10 score on IMDb, with The Guardian’s 4/5-star review calling it, “gripping from start to finish.”
