In this new series for Radio 4, comedian Alison Spittle explores some of her longest and deepest-held grudges. The kind of thing most people would be ashamed to still be thinking about 30 minutes later, let alone contemplating exacting retribution decades on.

Alison and her Wheel of Misfortune co-host Kerry Katona have one very important thing in common: they were both ejected from girl bands at crucial stages of their careers. In Alison’s case, aged 9, from primary school breaktime supergroup The Glitterbabes. It’s an injustice that’s never left her. Can Kerry help her find closure?

There are two things Alison Spittle really loves. EastEnders’ Barry Evans (actor Shaun Williamson) and revenge. And this episode threatens to join her two passions. Shaun runs a popular night called Barrioke – where fans can party and perform karaoke hits on stage with him. Alison has been many times, but she’s never been pulled out of the audience. What gives, Shaun? Alison needs to know.

15 years ago was meant to be the biggest, most romantic day of Alison’s (at that point very young) life. The long-anticipated debs ball (or as the English and Americans like to call it – prom). But her date didn’t show. And now Alison wants to find out why.
