Take That Confirmed for The Graham Norton Show as Jingle Bell Ball rumours fly

Pop icons Take That are set to light up Friday night television with a confirmed appearance on The Graham Norton Show on Friday 20 November.

Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, and Howard Donald will take to the famous studio stage to perform their hit single Higher. Their performance promises to be a highlight of the evening as the group cap off what has been a monumental year in music.

The television performance comes amid a whirlwind period for Take That.
