Is he? Gary is estimated to be worth 35 million as he writes songs for other artists and so earns the royalties.
I'm not sure if the latest Times Rich List is out yet but you are correct - Gary is worth about £35M. I'm pretty sure you'll find that Rob's estimated fortune is nearer £100M.

As a boost to his UK popularity - Rob did need them. Financially he did not. And if you look at the success of the Progress album in Europe .... Take That have benefitted a lot more from Rob's presence than he has in the UK. As good as the album (I'm told) is ... it would have flopped as badly as The Circus album did in Europe ... if Rob hadn't put his Monika to it!

Edit - shouldn't this thread be moved to 'music' as its more about Take That now than Strictly?

I'd happily lick jam off all 5 of them.

At once, preferably.

I thought they were fantastic and I am not a great fan of them.

Couldn't understand why they were included in a dance programme.

Yes I could, the BBC "chasing ratings " as usual.

I prefer Take That without Robbie.
So do I, he's always given me the impression that he thinks he's the star of the show. I've never liked him much, always preferred Gary Barlow myself.

Just Take That or all the singers/bands that have been on over the years?

Robbie's solo stuff was way better than anything Take That have done.
Some of their songs are alright but most are rubbish. It's just standard boyband fare.

Plus, Mark Owen cannot sing very well and has questionable morals to say the least.

So much Take That this weekend and I didn't even care. When they sang back for good I couldn't stop grinning.

They all seem really happy to be back.
