Genie in the House

Girlband (1x7)

:

Emma discovers that there's a talent competition, and asks Sophie to form a girlband with her, convinced they'll win the competition. Sophie, though, is too nervous to get up on stage, and Adil suggests that Emma wishes that Sophie was more confident. Of course, things don't go quite right, and Sophie becomes overconfident. Too confident, in fact, and decides to enter the competition on her own. She also acquires a bodyguard and entourage. Emma has to find a new partner, and she, Caroline and Adil, hold auditions, but Adil gets carried away and turns them all away. Emma is forced to use the protesting Adil, in a dress and wig, as he is the only person who knows the routine and the song. Sophie goes onstage to perform, but Adil's confidence wish wears off just as Sophie is about to sing, and she runs from the stage. Adil, meanwhile, has lost his confidence, and Emma has to go on stage alone. Sophie joins her sister, and Adil manages to overcome his stage fright, and joins in. Adil is revealed as a boy, and they're disqualified. To cap it all, the girls Adil rejected at the audition, who got together to form their own band, win the competition. Written by Bennett Arron. Directed by Phil Ox.
