While Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen have kept Take That alive as a trio in recent years, this gig is something extra special because founding member Robbie Williams will join the group for the first time since 2014.

Needless to say, it will be performed remotely given the current circumstances will all four members streaming in live from their homes.
The performance is also noteworthy as it's the first event to be held under the Meerkat Music moniker - a spin-off of popular price comparison website Compare the Market.
