Also Robbie Williams is just about to begin involvement in a film about his life.

I love Take That. I love Robbie. We don't need a film about everything however. Will be interesting to see how these pan out.

A girl I went to uni with played one of the younger girls in the first tour and she was easily one of the worst people I have ever had the misfortune of coming across, very on brand with Lea Michele. So I was always put off the show due to her involvement. I’ll definitely give the movie a go though.

I have mixed fortunes with Take That jukebox musicals. I rated Never Forget as one star, and The Band as five-star as it was so joyous and uplifting. Let's hope the movie mirrors the show.
