ABBA BEST COVERS EVER looks behind the greatest ABBA covers of all time, and fascinating detail at what inspired some of the world's most amazing artists to create their versions, how they treated the songs and how they brought their own unique spin to each ABBA classic. Music experts and fans including Dannii Minogue, and the artists themselves - including Andy Bell of Erasure, Neil Arthur of Blancmange, Carla Bruni, Adrian Utley of Portishead - give us their take on their versions, along with super-producer William Orbit, who talks us through a lost cover by Madonna to Sinead O'Connor's cover version of ABBA's Chiquitita. Finally, we take a look at Cher's dynamic and grounded take on Dancing Queen. Longtime collaborator Rob Dickins takes us through how the disco doyenne's wisdom and experience shine through in a floor filler that she has made her own.
