Hmmm.... what's going on here? Juanita played bass in Waikiki yet she's playing guitar here. So who's that playing bass? I can't get a good enough look. Is it Brendan with a Stone Roses haircut? It's certainly not Jimmeh Brandon.

Brendan was never supposed to have been in Waikiki - in fact the others claim they 'found' him after Waikiki disbanded - but we know he played bass and Juanita played guitar on the "Complicated" (studio) video.

We need to find out when this programme was broadcast.

Here is an item referring to Brendan joining Waikiki before their demise:

It says:
"Waikiki recorded an EP titled Presents . . . in 2000 and an album, I’m Already Home, in 2002. In 2003, Jimmeh Brandon left the band, Juanita Stein moved to guitar, and bassist Brendan Picchio joined the band. The Steins, Moule, and Picchio relocated to London the following year, changed their musical direction, and rechristened the new band Howling Bells."
