Takefat at Guilfest 2012

Take Fat is a comedy musical act who combine the music of boy band Take That, with character-based comedy. Formed in early 2009, the members perform under pastiche pseudonyms based on the real Take That: Gary Lardo (as Gary Barlow), Jason Chocolate Orange (as Jason Orange), Howard McDonalds, Mark Growin and Blobbie Williams (as Robbie Williams), played by Jules Benjamin, Darren Phillips, Mark Gibbs, Roger Roberts, and Tony James, respectively.

The outfit performs largely in theatres, nightclubs and music/comedy venues.

They gained some notoriety in July 2010, when filming a TV show at Elstree Studios, Hertfordshire, after being overheard threatening to break into the Big Brother house to perform to the house-mates. The stunt caused a security alert and police became involved. National newspaper coverage of the story focused on the irony of five fat men scaling a high fence.

On 5 November 2010, they appeared on the CBBC TV show The Slammer, performing a medley of Take That songs. They also appeared on an episode of Come Dine With Me when Blobbie Williams/Tony James was a contestant. Tony also won £5 on Deal or no Deal on 24 July 2011.
