Robbie Williams and Take That are back together again after 15 years apart.

Robbie, who walked out on the group 15 years ago, said, "It feels like coming home".

The group have already started secretly recording a new album which is going to be released in November. An arena tour is likely to follow.

Take That were one of the biggest bands of the 1990s.

The group had seven number one hits including Back for Good and How Deep is Your Love before Robbie walked out on the band to go solo in 1995.

Gary, Howard, Jason and Mark carried on the band for a year but then split up in 1996.

Millions of fans all over the world were devastated.

There was huge rivalry between Gary Barlow and Robbie Williams - especially as Robbie's solo career soared and Gary's stayed firmly on the ground - and the pair said horrible things about each other over the years.

In 2005 Take That reformed with all the band members apart from Robbie and have had huge success. They have had three number one singles, including Shine, and a number one album Beautiful World.

They became the first artists ever to top the UK official single and album charts along with the download single, download album and DVD charts in the same week, as well as topping the radio charts

And now Robbie Williams is joining them.

Robbie spoke of his joy at rejoining his old bandmates. He said, "I get embarrassingly excited when the five of us are in a room."

Bandmate Mark Owen said, "Getting the five of us to be a in a room together, although always a dream, never actually seemed like becoming a reality."

Jason Orange said the news was, "Flippin' brilliant, absolutely brilliant.

"I'm over the moon that Robbie's back with us, however long it lasts. I just want to enjoy our time with him. Life is beautifully strange sometimes."
