Wham to reform?

Eighties pop duo Wham! Are reforming for a one-off Christmas extravaganza twenty years after their split, according to newspaper reports.

Singer George Michael has persuaded his former partner-in-pop Andrew Ridgeley to reunite for a festive concert at London's Wembley Arena.

They will be joined on stage by their original backing singers Pepsi and Shirlie.

A friend revealed to British newspaper The Sunday Mirror: "George is thrilled that Andrew's agreed to perform.

"It was something George had thought about for a long time. He couldn't be happier and can't wait for the gig."
