Oakley is leading a double life as he embarks on a secret dating mission with Mya that doesn't go well, while Harry finds himself joining a Mariachi band after accidentally dropping an amp on one of the ...

The boys are working at the diner, and feeling further away from fame and success than ever. Making matters worse, Dan is broke, and unless he can get help, he's going to have to sell the diner. The Wonderland would lose their base and rehearsal space. Dan leaves the boys to mind the diner, having shut the kitchen, but when a famous customer, Fleur East, comes in asking for Dan's special squid chow mein, their efforts to keep her from leaving and provide her with the dish she's ordered almost end up burning down the Palais. Meanwhile, Dan visits Sasha, who promises ...

Harry is troubled when a hardcore muso, Trinity, describes The Wonderland as 'just another generic boyband'. Self-conscious about being part of a manufactured group, Harry searches for a more authentic sound. Chloe applauds the sentiment but says that this is not the time to be making big changes. The Wonderland are due to perform in a showcase, but during rehearsals Harry and Nathaniel fall out about the overall musical direction of the band, and Trinity only makes matters worse. Nathaniel, Oakley and Chloe realise that Harry seems to be under Trinity's spell, but ...

Chloe tries to get the boys onto a really popular vlog hosted by Tobylarious, a guy she used to go out with. She doesn't want to tell Nathaniel about their past, but things come to a head when the vlogger starts throwing his weight around. Nathaniel stands up for Chloe and throws away a chance for a big audience. Meanwhile, AJ is trying to prove himself as manager but only knows the old-school methods: getting their song into the hands of a top Radio 1 DJ. And GHF have had a recording released that sounds awful, so Sasha is leaning on her friend, the same R1 DJ, to ...

The Wonderland want to seize on the success of their surprise R1 Live Lounge session and get a new cover out asap, but this time with a video. Dan agrees to let them film at the Palais, but Sasha once again manages to ruin their plans by hosting a party for her boss Coleen at the Palais and locking the band out so they can't get their instruments. Meanwhile GHF need to impress Coleen at the party to get permission for a European tour, but Mya is distracted, trying to help Oakley and the band instead. Sasha risks public humiliation when she thinks Mya has sneaked the ...

Chloe wants to increase the social media buzz around the boys with more personality-led profiles and has secured interviews with various online magazines. Nate and Chloe run out of time when filling out a questionnaire so arrange a date to meet again to finish it, but both leave thinking that maybe 'it's a date' means it actually is a date. Panic sets in. Meanwhile, Harry's excellence at school means he gets to look after the school mascot, Phillip the cockerel, for the weekend, but Phillip escapes when Oakley leaves the door open. When they find a fully plucked and ...

When Nate meets Frankie Rylands, a failed boy band member, who has come to work in Dan's diner, he sees a vision of a possible future of himself in five years' time - washed up and washing up. He sees an opportunity to help a fellow talented musician. Meanwhile, Mya has agreed to go on a fake date with a famous singer to help cross-promote his new record and GHF's tour. Oakley gets very jealous, ending up in an awkward showdown.

Dan is launching a fundraiser at The Palais - amateur boxing night - and is looking for volunteers. Chloe and Mya sign up and it soon becomes a battle between The Wonderland and GHF - with surprising consequences. Nate supports Chloe while Oakley and Harry are in Mya's corner, but things get out of hand when Nate expresses his concern at Chloe's win-at-all-costs approach.

The Wonderland are preparing for a live stream at The Palais, but their plans go into freefall after an engineer for band The Wild Kudos walks out of the Palais with Nathaniel's guitar - Lyndsey - by mistake. Nathaniel feels he can't play without it, so he, Chloe and AJ go off in search of it. Will they find Lyndsey in time for the live stream? Meanwhile, Sasha insists there are no secrets between her and GHF, and asks the girls to work on their honesty. They start to reveal some pretty brutal truths to each other.

Harry's patience with the band is starting to run out, and finding out that their only gig is at the school prom makes him question whether they'll ever make it. Chloe starts to think whether she and Nate are really just friends or if there's something more to their relationship. Nate insists they're just friends, which Chloe takes very badly. When the prom is mysteriously cancelled, The Wonderland world is hanging by a thread. Not only that, GHF leave for their European tour only to find Oakley has smuggled himself on to the tour bus. Will Sasha find him, will Chloe ...
