Pop star Robbie Williams has hinted that he could return to his old group Take That – 14 years after leaving the boy band.

The 35-year-old told the Daily Mirror that he and Gary Barlow have been in regular contact and suggested a reunion could be fun.

Ahead of last week’s We Will Rock You musical in Manchester, Williams said that his head is now "in the right place".

Playing down suggestions that the group would not accept his return, he explained: "We’ve matured now. We’d have a laugh."

Williams quit the band in 1995, which led to the rest of the group breaking up one year later.

Barlow, Mark Owen and Williams all undertook solo careers prior to the band’s reformation back in 2005.

Over the last few years Take That – minus Williams – have enjoyed playing sell-out tours across the UK.
