Take That make tour Progress

THERE won't be much room for TAKE THAT to have a kickabout backstage.

With only three days until their Progress tour gets under way, everyone is running around making final checks to ensure everything is in working order.

It sounds like GARY BARLOW, ROBBIE WILLIAMS, MARK OWEN, JASON ORANGE and HOWARD DONALD should give their production designer CHRIS VAUGHAN a wide berth anyway.

Last-minute tinkering from the band has left him in need of a stiff drink. He said: "I am numb from worry. If I stopped to think about it I'd be on a plane to Rio.

"We're desperately trying to make everything the band wanted to happen, happen. It is stressful, honing set design, people changing their minds and the show being tweaked some."

The shows have cost more than £15million to stage and are twice the scale of The Circus gigs, so it's no wonder he is anxious.

Kicking off in Sunderland on Friday, the boys will play 36 dates before finishing up in Germany on July 29.

There are 275 technicians and crew on board to make sure the gigs go off without a hitch, plus a whopping 110 trucks to ferry equipment around.

The roadies will have earned themselves more than a few pints once it's all over.
