Arctic Monkeys frontman apologises for Take That slurs

With Take That tickets for their upcoming UK tour in high demand, Alex Turner has apologised for disparaging remarks he made about the group several years ago.

The Arctic Monkeys frontman referred to the reformed boyband as “a load of old b*****ks” back in 2006.

But, speaking to NME, he has now admitted his comments were misjudged.

“We love Gary Barlow," said the Sheffield-born rock star.

"I think I really offended him a few years ago though, which I'm sorry about. I didn't understand it then. Didn't know what was going on, trying to ruffle some feathers."

Take That have enjoyed phenomenal success since reforming in 2006.

Last year saw Robbie Williams rejoin the band and Take That subsequently announced their first tour as a five-piece in 16 years.

The tour gets underway at the Stadium of Light in Sunderland on May 27th, with support coming from the Pet Shop Boys.
