Five: Nineties boyband reunite and will tour the UK
Nineties boyband Five are reuniting and will be touring the UK later this year.
The group - made up of Abz Love, J Brown, Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson and Sean Conlon - haven't performed together for a quarter of a century.
In their heyday, the platinum-selling band topped charts across the globe and sold more than 20 million records worldwide.
Their 12-date UK arena tour, Keep On Movin' 2025, will begin in Brighton at the end of October, before travelling to Bournemouth, Cardiff, Nottingham, Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, Newcastle, Aberdeen, Glasgow, and London where they will perform at The O2.
They will perform some of their biggest hits, including If Ya Gettin' Down, Everybody Get Up and international success When The Lights Go Out.
Fans will also be treated to some of their past number ones, with Keep On Movin', We Will Rock You, and Let's Dance also on the playlist.
Speaking ahead of the tour, band member Robinson said: "This has been a long time coming and it really does feel right for all of us now - 25 years on, and we're so ready for it. Reconnecting as a 5 over the last year has been special and I know I speak for all the boys when I say we can't wait to do this all over again. Hope you're ready!!"
Abz Love added: "We really can't wait to get back on stage together & see the fans, it's gonna go OFF! Buzzing to have Naughty Boy on tour with us too… 5 bad boys and a naughty boy, that sounds like a lot of fun. Let's gooooo!"
Formed in 1997, Five is the only UK act to hit the Top 10 with all of their 11 singles, including three number ones. Their first and second albums both went double platinum.
Their tour announcement comes 25 years after the band won their first BRIT Award for best British pop act in 2000.

'I'm a fashion editor and found perfect festival outfits at unlikely retailer'
The brand may be known for its lingerie and adult toys, but it's really been killing the fashion game recently - and its latest drop is no different Festival season is officially here - and if you've bagged tickets to Glastonbury, Reading & Leeds, Download, Isle of Wight, or one of the other popular weekend events, you'll know that sorting your outfit is just as crucial as the lineup. Fashion editor Rachel Pugh has been hunting for the perfect ensemble, and stumbled upon options in a rather unexpected place: Ann Summers. She said: 'The brand is smashing it with its glitzy, dancefloor-ready collection. From sequin-adorned bodysuits to faux leather shorts, it's got all the elements for a main-stage moment - and some of it is even on sale.' reports the Manchester Evening News. One of her top picks was the brand's Flashing Lights Sequin Body, now £27.20 (was £34). She commented: 'In an electric pink and dripping in sparkle, it's practically made for dancing under the stage lights. It's bold, fun and cheeky, with a plunging back and mesh thong bum. Pair it with denim cut-offs, or go full throttle and wear it solo with a pair of knee-high boots.' If you're feeling particularly daring, the Eternal Rainbow Suit is another option. Now reduced to £28.80 from £36, it's crafted from rainbow lace and mesh instead of a solid colour, giving it a dreamy vibe. It also has underwired cups for extra support and adjustable shoulder straps for comfort. 'With a piece this eye-catching, keep the rest of your outfit simple,' said Rachel. 'Think black shorts and chunky combat boots to let the bodysuit do all the talking.' Festival edit various Ann Summers Buy here Product Description Elsewhere, Jaded London is set to be your new go-to for festival outfits with knockout styles including standout cargo trousers and co-ord sets that will have you channelling headliner vibes. 'I bagged myself a pair of beige parachute trousers to wear at the Lido Festival in London over the weekend,' Rachel commented. Otherwise, Motel Rocks is another option. Known for its bold prints, sheer layering and y2k party-girl energy, it's perfect for a muddy field. Back at Ann Summers, there are also some great short options available. Festival-goers can go full glam with a diamante-detailing pair or keep it classic with a plain black version - both £28. The brand's festival range has not yet received many reviews, although a couple of people have commented on the diamante shorts. One person said: "Really pretty. The material is thin, which is perfect for summer. I love the bling detail on the chains. "I recently went from 16 to 14, and I am choosing size medium more often. I went with a size large on this one so that my belly doesn't stick out. They are a bit large, but I love how they make me look as if I have room." When scouring Ann Summers site for criticism, results seem scarce, yet there's a grumble or two about their delivery service found on TrustPilot, with one customer posting: "I placed an order which was cancelled a week later. No reason was given; the email stated that if I still wanted the products, I should place a new order." Speaking on the festival edit, Rachel concluded: 'Ann Summer has officially entered its festival fashion era - and I want it all.' Shoppers can view the entire range here.
