Blue filmed the video for You Should Know in Dundee.
Noughties boyband Blue have revealed they shot the music video for their latest single in Dundee.
Formed of Simon Webbe, Duncan James, Antony Costa, and Lee Ryan, the four-piece sat down with This Morning hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley on Wednesday (September 23) to discuss reaching 25 years as a band and their seventh studio album, Reflections. Released earlier this year, the record reached number two on the UK album chart.

Blue then shared an exclusive clip of the music video for their latest single You Should Know on the show, which they confirmed was shot in Dundee. They follow in the footsteps of artists such as Justin Bieber, who filmed the video for his song Bad Honey at Abandon Ship in the city last year.
Speaking about the track, Ryan said: “It was a song that Simon wrote and we kind of thought the album was done. Then we gave it to Radio 2 and they A-listed it straight away and we was like ‘oh, what?’”
James added: “So we were like let’s make a video for it!”
While Ryan was briefly confused about where exactly they filmed the video, his band mates were quick to correct him that it was shot “up” in Dundee, and not down like he had initially stated.

Following their performance at Radio 2 in the Park Stirling, Blue had an album launch show lined up for Fat Sams in Dundee which is why the band were in the area.
In an interview with The Courier, director and producer Wayne Lennox shared that he arrived in the city a few days early to scope out filming locations.
All four band members can be seen in the black and white music video walking along Chandlers Lane, one of the oldest and most historically intact streets in Dundee. Broughty Ferry beach and Broughty Castle also get their moment in the spotlight alongside Blue.
The music video was officially released following their This Morning appearance, with fans of the band praising the track and video across social media platforms.
One commenter on YouTube wrote: “Lovely to see the video shot in my hometown!!”
Another shared on Instagram: “Loving @officialblue that you filmed this all in Dundee 💙💙 what a beautiful song, my city xx”
Blue are heading on a co-headline tour with Ronan Keating next summer, with tickets on sale this week.
