Popstars boyband wins worst group

The boyband formed on 'Popstars: The Rivals' in the UK has been voted worst British group at the Naomi Awards - an alternative to the Brits.

One True Voice join Pop Idol runner-up Gareth Gates on the awards role-call as he was named worst British male and his version of 'Unchained Melody' named the year's worst single.

Victoria Beckham also won two awards: worst female and worst album, for her self-titled debut.

Cheeky Girls won worst international group and single for 'The Cheeky Song'.

The Naomis are handed out by TV channel Music Choice. They are named after model Naomi Campbell, who tried - and failed - to launch a pop career in 1994.

One True Voice had their tour, with girlband Girls Aloud, cancelled yesterday due to poor ticket sales.

Must Watch TV

  • - 30 Rock

    11.45pm, 3e

    Another case of a great show at an awful time - and it's a terrible shame because 30 Rock has probably been the smartest as well as the funniest network American sitcom since the glory days of Seinfeld. Tonight, Liz returns from holiday break with a new outlook that leaves her immune to Tracy's acting out over Jenna's new fame as a judge on the reality show America's Kidz Got Singing. Meanwhile, Kenneth prepares for the Rapture.

  • - Franc's DIY Brides

    8.30pm, RTÉ One

    With a budget of €10K, and 160 guests invited to their very special day, Franc is on hand to mentor Dublin couple Gemma Barnes and Gary Mackle as they endeavour to create their winter wonderland-themed wedding in Wexford. A wedding dress has to be found, and a ring needs to be re-worked all in an attempt to create a unique and cost effective 'wow' wedding. And Gemma and Gary head for Camp Franc to find out just how they can make their day perfect.

  • - Golf: PGA Championship

    2.30pm, BBC TWO

    Golf is one sport that looks amazing on TV, so here's another treat for couch potatoes. Hazel Irvine presents live coverage of the fourth and final round at Wentworth. Last year's final day culminated in a dramatic play-off between Luke Donald and Lee Westwood, and it was the former who emerged victorious to take the world number one spot off his compatriot. With so many Europeans dominating the top of the World rankings, viewers can expect a tight contest (and maybe an Irish win).
