Critical response

The premiere received generally positive reviews. The Guardians Rebecca Nicholson called it a "fabulous and intimate" documentary and gave it four out of five stars. Elizabeth Aubrey of The Independent similarly gave the premiere four out of five stars, finding it to be a "damning" critique of the music industry in the 1990s. James Jackson of The Times gave the episode three out of five stars and concluded that it was "an intelligent bit of back-to-the-1990s nostalgia layered with dismay at the era's laddism." The Daily Telegraphs Kat Brown also gave it three stars, finding the lack of input from the Spice Girls themselves to be a notable omission.
