The show was recorded after Geri Halliwell left the band. Halliwell later revealed in the 2007 documentary film Giving You Everything that she watched the two-hour Sky One broadcast from her home in the United Kingdom after only quitting the band four months prior and said "it was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do" and that it was "so painful", to which Mel B jokingly replied, "That's her own fault".
