Episode 1

The first episode sees 23-year-old Jordan and his grandad Ronnie, 72, step up to the mic to record a duet to cement their close bond. They love nothing more than to sing together, anywhere and everywhere, and now they want to lay down a track that they can both treasure for years to come. Mentored and recorded by acclaimed producer Andrew Hunt and top vocal coach Mark De-Lisser, they sing their own version of Ben E King's classic Stand By Me, a track that represents their close relationship. Ronnie's memory isn't what it used to be, so remembering the lyrics is a bit of a struggle. He doesn't want to let grandson Jordan down, but when he sings from the heart in the performance, he doesn't forget a thing.

Episode 2

23-year-old Charles has cystic fibrosis and for three and a half years was too ill to sing while he waited for a double lung transplant. Now he wants to sing for the first time with his new lungs and make a recording. Only twelve weeks post-operation, Charles needs the support of vocal coach, CeCe Sammy. Meanwhile Sister Bliss creates a backing track. Backed by a gospel choir, Charles performs in front of his mum and girlfriend. 25-year-old Bethany has home-recordings of her dad, who has passed away. Bethany wants to know if producer Andrew Hunt can create something new with the recordings. Her dream is to be reunited with her dad on a track she can play on her wedding day. Andrew finds Bethany's dad playing one of her favourite tracks and after adding in additional instruments, Andrew invites Bethany back to the studio to add her vocals.
