The former annoying one from Steps rates his rivals during his band’s toe-tapping era in the late nineties and early nougties.

East 17 or A1? A1 supported us on tour and were put together by the same management so I know them well.

Aqua or Ricky Martin? I have to say Aqua because again they are from the same era as us. We used to do a lot of TV shows with them and we’d travel on the same plane. They are lovely guys.

B*Witched or S Club 7? Oh B*Witched! Keavy Lynch from the band is one of my best friends. She is one of my long standing friends from the business.

Boyzone or Westlife? We know all the Boyzone boys but Westlife were around at the same time as us. Lee and I had to share dressing rooms with the boys so I have to say them.

Backstreet Boys or Boyz II Men? Backstreet Boys! They were on the same label as us and were often on the same TV shows at the same time.

5.6.7.8. or Macarena? Really? Oh my God that is a hard one. Oh my God I will have to choose Macarena. I think every pop band has a single from their career they can’t bare. Ours is 5.6.7.8.

Saturday Night or Ooh Aah... Just a Little Bit? I love a bit of Gina G. I bought that album so Ooh Aah... Just a Little Bit.

Sun-In or sunshine? I don’t have the most amazing tanning skin. I’m a factor 50 person so it’s the shade for me.

Ian H Watkins stars in Rhinestone Mondays with Shaun Williamson, Faye Tozer and Lyn Paul. See them at Dartford’s Orchard Theatre from Tuesday, October 25 to Saturday, October 29.
