I'm not a fan either but fair play to them for building a bridge over there differences.

usualsuspect · 19/11/2010 22:01

yes they are,they were shite first time round

bran · 19/11/2010 22:01

The two dancing ones (I can't tell them apart) are still in pretty good condition IMO.

MaudOHara · 19/11/2010 22:02

YABVU - they get better with age

"building a bridge over their differences" - it's a rainbow bridge you know - got a fuckin' great pot of gold at the end of it - you can make any reunion

and lost 3 stone (wish I could) still looks chubbly

I have a ticket for next summer. Na Na Na Na Na. Love 'em

PollyParanoia · 19/11/2010 22:08

Are you really suggesting that if you walked into your kid's reception class and there were five dads that looked like that you wouldn't be thinking you'd want to wrestle at least one of them into the art cupboard? I mean, really?
These are forty something men and there's not a gut or a bald pate on them. Wow you must be all living wu
Ith some hot dads to suggest otherwise...

TeaOneSugar · 19/11/2010 22:10

Not old, some of them are younger than me, so they can't be old Grin

cees · 19/11/2010 22:11

I'd build a bridge too if there was a huge pot of money to be made.

Remember when Robbie got that big record contract in America. He came out of the signing and rubbed Garys face in it, as far as I can remember.

Saggyoldclothcatpuss · 19/11/2010 22:11

I'll admit they do look slightly aged, but they are still good looking blokes and they sound great!

pointydog · 19/11/2010 22:15

I like them more now than I did 15 or so yeara ago. But then perhaps I am an old, slightly fat wumman.

5DollarShake · 19/11/2010 22:16

YANBU. I do not get Take That.

ShadeofViolet · 19/11/2010 22:17

OP - you are very, very wrong!

bumpsoon · 19/11/2010 22:17

They are older ,but so am i ,and they can still hold a bloody good tune ,so i say fair play to them Grin

Mrsmackie · 19/11/2010 22:17

I am presuming you are under 30 if you think they are old?! I think they look better now than they did first time around.

bumpsoon · 19/11/2010 22:18

Never mind wrestling one of them into a art cupboard ,i have the lot tied up for later Grin

pointydog · 19/11/2010 22:18

What do you mean, you don't get htme?

I have never liked Take That. Robbie in particular gets tight up my nose. But I certainly get them.
