Teasing it will be “part of the new music” they’ve promised fans, Gary shared that he, Howard and Mark recently sat down to watch the upcoming three-episode series.
“I have to tell you, it’s quite a watch, even for us,” the 54-year-old shared. “I think fans are going to absolutely love it.”
According to the show's announcement synopsis, the much-anticipated series will tell the story of the band that has “captivated millions” throughout four decades.
Through three one-hour-long episodes, fans will gain a “deep understanding of the band’s dynamic, their individual stories, and the highs and lows they experienced together.”

Former members Jason Orange and Robbie Williams will appear in interviews in the doc, as well as Gary, Mark and Howard.
Work on the documentary has been going on “for about two years,” Gary told Jenni.
“It documents the last 35 years,” he continued. “It’s really really meaty.”
Take That were formed in 1990 and skyrocketed to fame to become one of Britain’s biggest boy bands.
After Robbie Williams departed the band the group disbanded in 1996, but reunited as a four in 2005.
Robbie returned to the group in 2010 for their sixth studio album Progress, and its later tour.
Since 2014, the group has consisted of just Gary, Howard and Mark, as Robbie returned to his solo career and Jason decided to retire from performing.
Netflix’s docuseries will see the group look back on all this history and more.
