Real-life stories about children today, told by children themselves. Hit and Miss
An unusual behind-the-scenes saga from the world of pop - the stuff of dreams. The story began last summer. when a new record company advertised for a teenage female vocalist. The aim was to launch a recording career for a complete unknown, and to score a hit with a Europop single. The Lowdown followed what happened - the auditions, selection, recording, release and reaction to the song. If you didn't catch Bye Bye Baby by 16-year-old Zara, then this is your big chance.
