Take That Break Album Record

Take That have broken a record in the UK, for the most pre-ordered album ever, with their forthcoming LP 'The Circus'.

According to Play.com, the boyband have toppled the previous record by Coldplay and their 'Viva La Vida' album.

'The Circus' is also outselling Britney Spears and her 'Circus' record by 5 to 1, meaning Take That are sure to top the charts when it is released on December 1.

The band also broke another record at the end of last month, for the fastest selling tour ever.
