A new trailer for the upcoming docuseries about Take That shows the band talking about the pressures of fame.

The trailer which you can check out below, was released by Netflix, showing the band speaking about their experiences as a pop band and their rise to fame "in their own words", as well as a range of archive, personal material and previously unseen footage.

It also shows a series of clips of the band when they were at the peak of their powers in the 1990s, featuring voiceovers from new interviews from bandmembers Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen.


"The more successful we became, the bigger the audience is", Donald says. Owen adds: "But it was also the beginning of the end for us as a band".

Elsewhere, Gary Barlow can be heard describing the burden of being the band's lead singer/songwriter as "an unbelievable amount of pressure". 

He added: "We’re a business now. A money-making machine for a lot of people". 

In between clips, text on the screen also reads:  "Exclusive unseen footage. Told in their own words. The music you know. The story you don’t", for a docuseries which has been described as a "deeply personal and definitive story of Take That".

Having  formed in 1989, Take That featured original bandmembers, Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Robbie Williams, with Williams leaving the band in 1996 to pursue a solo career.

The docuseries is to air on Netflix on January 27.

Last week, Robbie Williams said that he would "ride again" with Take That, having last toured with the band in 2011.

"Would I return to Take That to do the Circus again? I did love it last time. Not right now. I’m sure we will ride again, but it’s not in my plans right now", the singer said in an interview recently. More on this here.
