Spandau Ballet to reform

Eighties pop legends Spandau Ballet are planning to make a comeback with a new album and a world tour.

The British band formed 30 years ago and had a string of hits including 'Gold' and 'To Cut A Long Story Short'.

The group split in 1999 when singer Tony Hadley, saxophonist Steve Norman and drummer John Keeble sued guitarist Gary Kemp over claims he owed them more than £1m (€1.11m) in royalties.

But the members have now put aside their differences and teamed up with Kemp's brother Martin for a reunion, according to the band's manager Steve Dagger.

Dagger says: "We're not making announcements yet, but yes, basically, the boys are back in town. Not just a nostalgic re-run of the old but a fresh slant on what Spandau Ballet are about."
