The trio - Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, Mark Owen - played for two hours on a specially-built stage at Carrow Road - first on Thursday evening and again tonight (Friday, June 16).

Some fans had hoped for a surprise appearance from a special guest - rumoured even to be former member Robbie Williams.

But Williams's absence did not dampen the mood of the up to 60,000 fans who flocked to the two Norwich gigs as part of Take That's Wonderland tour.

Katie Lake, from Norwich, described the performance as 'awesome'.

She said: 'It was so nice to hear them singing the old songs that everybody knows - Rule the World, Relight My Fire.

'They have still got it and it doesn't matter that there are only three of them now.

'There was meant to be a surprise - nothing happened but we loved them anyway.'

Charlotte Buck, 23, from Attleborough, said she was impressed, even though she does not count herself among the band's legion of hard-core fans.

She said: 'I'm normally not a Take That fan but I thought it was extremely good.

'Relight My Fire was a highlight, and the fireworks when Rule the World was on were great too. I heard a rumour that Robbie was going to be there, but he didn't turn up.'

Mandy Moore, from Wymondham, said a highlight for her was: 'When Gary came down from the stage and he was right in front of us.'

Ms Moore went on to praise the organisation of the concert, saying: 'The atmosphere was brilliant and the security was really well done as well.'

Karen Milward travelled from Newmarket to see the show.

She said: 'It was amazing - so great seeing Gary Barlow and Mark Owen. They always put on a good show.

'I've seen them before in London, so it was really nice to see them in a smaller venue.'
