PLANS have been revealed for a full Take That reunion to mark the iconic boy band’s 30th anniversary.
It’s hoped original members Robbie Williams and Jason Orange will come on board.
Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald have three years to convince their estranged band mates to be part of commemoration festivities in 2020.
“We’re planning something to do for the 30-year all together,” Barlow revealed to The Sun newspaper in the UK.
“We’re looking that far ahead, something big, maybe a new record, maybe a greatest hits with a big tour.”
Take That was formed in 1990 and dominated the pop charts around the world with a string of hits, including Back For Good.

After they parted ways, Williams went on to forge a mega solo career. He briefly rejoined his former mates in 2011 for the Progress tour.
Since then, Take That has toured as a trio — and will visit Australia later this year for a series of shows — but Barlow is hopeful Williams and Orange — who quit in 2014 — will return.
But not all members of the hit band are confident about the prospects of a 30-year anniversary reunion.
“A five-piece would be incredible,” Howard said. “Whether that ever happens or not, that’s a different story. My gut’s telling me no. I’d love it to happen.
“That’s the nice thing, that we can all hope it will happen but, you know, no pressure on anybody to do anything.”
