S Club 7 reform with three members

S Club 7 have reformed for a series of university and nightclub dates with just three members from the original lineup.

According to The Sun, Jo O’Meara, Bradley McIntosh and Paul Cattermole are performing a medley of the group's best hits on the reunion dates.

Promoter Terry Mills said: "It's early days. They’ve got some good songs so I'm sure they will get bookings. Everyone deserves to make some cash in the credit crunch."

Former members Tina Barrett, Hannah Spearritt and Jon Lee were unable to take part, while Rachel Stevens, who is currently appearing on Strictly Come Dancing, also declined the offer.

S Club 7 were together for four years, totting up four UK number one singles, one UK number one album, a BBC TV series and a movie before splitting in 2003.
