“From their early beginnings as five piece formed in Manchester to becoming pop superstars, relive the camaraderie, chaos, and resilience that fuelled their meteoric rise, dramatic split, and one of the greatest comebacks in British music history. Told in their own words, this is the deeply personal and definitive story of Take That. “
Fans received a minute-long teaser featuring early band members in December. Nothing beats being in a band, the group members could be heard saying. There is a buzz and a strength. Something about us from the beginning wanted to prove something. I thought we were the kings of the world because of how close we were to one another.
Some of the band had previously appeared on the documentary Boybands Forever, which examined the rise, difficulties, and legacy of UK boybands in the 1990s and 2000s. Robbie, who left the band in 1995, was featured in the factual series, which covered issues he and his bandmates had, including eating disorders and alcohol abuse. When he joined the band, he was only 16 and his departure was 21.
