Special edition of this program involving popstars (instead of fans) pretending to be other real popstars. The program featured Brian Harvey as Ali Campbell of UB40, The Honeyz as The Supremes, Allstars as Steps and Kim Wilde as Doris Day. Kim’s performance starts with a short clip in which Kim introduces herself (including footage of Kim taken at the set of ‘This morning’, in preparation of her weekly spot in that program) and an interview by the show host.
Kims performance of Doris Day’s “Que sera sera” in a yellow dress is a fine impression of the American singer.
The winner is Jarvis Cocker from the group Pulp, with an impression of Rolf Harris.
