Robbie Williams has confirmed that plans are in place for him to reunite with Take That.

The singer was asked if he would ever work with the group again during an appearance on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross.

”Yes I hope so,” he said, before adding: "We've got together, done bits and bobs. I can't say much."

Williams, who is preparing to release his new solo album 'Reality Killed The Video Star', quit Take That in the mid-90s.

But his relations with the band's other four members, notably singer Gary Barlow, have healed in recent years.

Williams also spoke to Ross about his solo career and relationship with Ayda Field during the interview, which airs on BBC1 on Friday.
