Doing a skippy little dance routine in their 40s, in tight white suits!

And the fact the just keep going on and on in dwindling numbers.

Sorry, I know everyone loves them but I've never been a fan and now it's getting laughable.

I saw them on The X Factor a few weeks ago doing their little dance and I was embarrassed for them. It was shocking.

and the song is crap too

VixxenPlusAllTheOtherReindeers · 11/12/2014 21:45

yanbu
Gary Barlows dancing is atrocious.

StrawberryMojito · 11/12/2014 21:46

I am a fan but even I'm thinking come on lads, time to retire. They can't need the money.

pictish · 11/12/2014 21:47

Yanbu - bunch of fannies. They always were.

Leela5 · 11/12/2014 21:49

I love Take That but even I'm starting to feel a bit embarrassed by the dancing :(

kerstina · 11/12/2014 21:54

Well I am definitely not a fan of take that but thought they were the best thing on this crappy award show. Apart from Marks ridiculously bouffant hair! Thought they were the most passionate and enthusiastic. I must be getting old and grumpy ..and why does the best artist in the UK James Blunt never win any awards.

londonrach · 11/12/2014 21:54

When jason left take that should have disbanded. (Huge fan first time around)

Celticlass2 · 11/12/2014 22:02

I've always hated them. Bland as fuck.

CardiffUniversityNetballTeam · 11/12/2014 22:04

I thought they looked like they were having a great time tonight!
Unlike One Direction, who all looked like they could use a good bath and a square meal. Miserable little gits.

I think I might be getting old!

maddy68 · 11/12/2014 22:09

It's cringeworthy. Stop the dancing, stop the matching suits

awaynboilyurheid · 11/12/2014 22:10

Agree when its only three it just looks sad and I speak as someone who saw them love and loved the show but the coordinated dancing thing doesn't work at this stage in their careers.

FreudiansSlipper · 11/12/2014 22:10

I caught them on X Factor it was highly amusing for all the wrong reasons

never been a fan the most over rated band GB's song writing is dull and predictable though I like Pray I heard it on the radio today must be nearly 20 years old

PrincessOfChina · 11/12/2014 22:12

I adore Take That. But they should have given it up after the end of the last tour.

Saying that, I thought they did a good performance this evening and certainly trumped 1D who always look totally bored.

sunflower49 · 11/12/2014 22:12

What programme were they on?

I used to love them when I was 10/11. I was heartbroken when they split up!

So Jason's gone has he?

Mousefinkle · 11/12/2014 22:18

oh lord, they do the shuffle my mother does when slightly tipsy at parties. Definitely a lot of embarrassing drunken dad dancing going down and the matching suits must go...

Gary can't make it alone, he needs the take that name behind him to succeed. He'd probably continue solo of the worst came to worst but as take that Grin.

LynetteScavo · 11/12/2014 22:22

Well I find them entertaining in a point and laugh way.

It's a bit...."and then there were three...."

DH us about the sans age as Take That and he would NEVER wear one if those suits.

Sparklingbrook · 11/12/2014 22:23

YANBU. Have you seen Boyzone lately too? Cringe!

Even 5ive are down to 3ive.

Time to give it up I think.

TheWindowDonkey · 11/12/2014 22:23

I think they are a marmite band, and personally have never liked them...so YAdefinatelyNBU! :)

RigglinJigglin · 11/12/2014 22:24

1D looked like they'd been partaking in extra curricular activities, the guy in the middle needed propping up.

Fast forwarded through take that, dancing seemed ok on x30.

Figster · 11/12/2014 22:24

Sorry yabu

Still love them love the song but feel without Jason this might be the last hurrah

Bakeoffcakes · 11/12/2014 22:24

They probably do need the money as they will all be getting a very large tax bill quite shortly.

Sparklingbrook · 11/12/2014 22:25

I love McBusted. Blush

Redcoats · 11/12/2014 22:26

Why did Jason leave?
