Advantages: Shows the girls personalities, passions and amibtion.

Disadvantages: Nadine not taking part in the show.

I am a massive girls aloud fan who has all their albums, dvds, been to many tour dates and have also been fortunate enough to meet the girls on a numer of occasions. I must say this dvd reflects exactly how they are - hardworking as a group and as individuals.

This show was a 4 parter and showed 4 of the 5 members setting off to achieve what their "passion" and dream is. I will give a brief description of my favourite episodes.

Cheryl's passion was street dancing and with Cheryl being my favourite I enjoyed this episode the most. This episode shows Cheryl developing dance skills she has learnt with GA into a more hip hop and street route. Cheryl worked with a choreographer in London to pick up the basics and travelled to America and gained an insight into people from low economic backgrounds and how dancing has helped keep them focused and away from the bad lifestyle many people are leading in their area. This episode also features Will.I.Am where Cheryl auditions for a part in his music video. Cheryl impresses him so much he asks her to feature on his hit single heartbreaker which she gladly accepted and did an excellent job on.

I think Nicolas episode was brilliant and hopefully had an impact on many "pale" peoples lives and girls who worry about their image in general. Nicola has had an extremely rough time with the media for being the "ginger ugly member" which is far from the truth. In this episode you really do feel Nicolas passion. She travels to Taiwan and works incredibly hard on getting a product specifically aimed at people with pale skin. Nicolas product has been highly successful on the asos website and she is extremely proud of how well it has sold. The product has given Nicola a new found confidence and hopefully it has had the same impact on many others.

The girls work to a very tight schedule both within Girls Aloud and this series but achieve to a high standard in both areas.

I highly recommend this DVD as it gives you an insight into the girls passions, personalities, their drive and ambition and just how hardworking and down to earth these girls really are.

The only disappointment for me is Nadine pulling out of the show. She was originally going to be a classical onductor, but pulled out due to being into reality tv shows even though the girls were voted into the band on the reality tv programme popstars the rivals.

Summary: A must see DVD even for people who aren't a fan of Girls Aloud
