The new comeback single from British boyband Take That, Patience, has just been released to radio in the UK. The video - shot in Iceland - will screen from October 20.

Patience is the first new song recorded by Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald since their reunion and sell-out tour earlier this year.

The single has great buzz from music insiders, who're tipping it as a Christmas Number One, and say it's worth the wait. The track has a catchy chorus, and has been described as a 'little like James Blunt' (although I personally think it has more in commmon with A-ha's recent songs).

Take That had 8 #1 singles in the UK, and sold 25 million records around the world, before they split up more than a decade ago.

The single Patience is taken from Take That's forthcoming album Beautiful World, and is due for release on November 20. The new album's due in stores a week long.

A live reunion tour DVD - The Ultimate Tour: Live In Manchester - is also due in stores later this month. It includes footage of their homecoming show in Manchester and a documentary about the build-up to the tour.
