Take That Scoop Christmas No.1 Spot With Progress
Take That's album Progress entered the UK album charts at No.1 whilst also becoming the fast-selling album of the millennium. Five weeks on the album continues to dominate the UK's Official Album Chart as it picks up the crown for Christmas No.1 album.
But the success does't stop there for the boys, as Progress has also picked up the title for biggest selling album of the year so far, shifting over a million copies since its release.
A massive thank you to all of you for buying the album and making it Christmas No.1, the album wouldn't be there without each and every one of you!
Let's remind ourselves of just one of the brilliant tracks on the album, SOS, with Take That's performance at The Royal Variety Performance in London; check it out below and don't forget to tell us what you think…

Boy if I were not already in your heart you would not be able to see me. Merry Christmas to Rob+Ayda and to all of your true fans. XX You are my Hero :)

Oh and I'd like to also say that the naked men in the first song on ROyal Variety were naked because the boys were on the progress cover that's why the men kept doing different freezes to show each step of evolution-like it was on The Progress cover. Thought I'd clear that one up as on every other forum I've been on everyone seems confused and puzzled about the naked men dancing :D Loved the RV Guys! :D X ROLL ON JUNE 5th!
Loved the Royal Variety Performance, especially the drumming section! You all deserve to be Number 1 with your amazing album, you deserve to be Number 1 with The Flood and SOS alone! Merry Christmas Robbie, Mark, Gary, Jason and Howard! :D
