Whilst Sam is yet to upload the TikTok as of yet, it's safe to say that fans are looking forward to seeing it. Commenting beneath Sam's Instagram post, one person said: 'can't wait to see this tik tok.' (sic)
Another person wrote: 'We need to see the tiktok.' Someone else commented: 'Best trio ever to exist.'

Sam Thompson: Is This ADHD?
In a documentary which aired on E4 in 2023, we followed Sam as he made the decision to get tested for ADHD, and explored what a possible diagnosis might mean for him.
