There's only one Lesley Garrett

Having answered the call, the choir of 50 strangers meet for their first rehearsal. What surprises lie in store for the singers?

Having answered the call, the choir of 50 strangers meet for their first rehearsal at the home of Bradford City AFC. The choir is nervous, the anticipation is high and why is there a Soprano in the bathroom?

The story involves a 50-strong choir of Bantams supporters, ranging from a 90-year-old match-day volunteer to a 19-year-old trainee teaching assistant. They will be supported by notable figures like Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber, opera singer Lesley Garrett, and sports commentator Chris Kamara.
