All tickets for Take That's forthcoming reunion tour have sold out in just two days, it has been confirmed.

The band initially announced details of 14 UK and Ireland dates, but that number was extended to 23 due to “unprecedented demand”.

On Friday (October 29), the group sold a record-breaking one million tickets in less than 24 hours.

The remaining ticket had sold out by Saturday (October 30), although secondary market ticket companies still have tickets.

Take That said they were “speechless, truly and utterly shocked” by the demand for tickets.

The official ticket agencies responsible for selling the tickets have apologised after they booking systems crashed due to the high demand.

Take That are due to release their new album 'Progress', their first in fifteen years with Robbie Williams, on November 22'.

• Sunderland, Stadium Of Light – May 30/31
• Manchester, City Of Manchester Stadium – June 3/4/5/7/8/10/11
• Cardiff, Millennium Stadium – 14/15
