    Spent all flippin day trying to get the Take That tickets for the kiddie in my family i.e. me! Had the tickets in my basket about 30 times but each time the site crashed and I got bored with hearing the BT announcer on the phone :(

    If you register with ticketmaster as you enter your card details in advance so may be that will resolve the problem? I got as far as selecting the postage option about 30 times then cabooooooooom! My friend just got through by phone and got tickets for Wembley in July. Extra Manchester and Wembley date were added a couple of hours ago. I'm still hoping they release some more Sunderland tickets!

    I know some people are managing to get the fire station set in Sainsburys at half price, but only in store not online, worth a look, i think they also stock the city garage set, but not so sure about the police station. I want the airport city set but having no luck. Hope this helps take a look at the sainsburys thread as you may find someone has posted where they have managed to pick up the sets. Good Luck...!

    MY DD 7 told me today she thinks the high school monster doys are freaky, she doesn't like them so that has saved me a search!

    Statement on Ticketmaster site re: Take That (obviously some of you may have wanted to get tickets for your older children for xmas teen toys?).

    An incredible number of Take That concerts across the UK in 2011 are now sold out and a staggering 1m tickets have been sold today. We have witnessed level of demand for tickets through our website which has surpassed anything ever experienced before by Ticketmaster within the UK. We are extremely disappointed that we were unable to maintain a satisfactory level of service on our website throughout the day and we do apologise to any consumers who have experienced problems trying to secure Take That tickets. If you were unable to secure tickets, we would recommend you continue to check our website over the next few days, in case any further tickets do become available.
    All dates are currently SOLD OUT
