Last night, ITV viewers were treated to a very special Robbie Williams show to celebrate the popstar's career.

The 90-minute show looked back on Robbie's amazing career in music with a host of famous faces, including Olly Murs, Kylie Minogue and even the Take That boys, who took time out of their busy schedules to celebrate his career.

The special show celebrated Robbie winning the BRITs Icon Award and was filmed at a sold-out London Palladium last month.

Fans of the legend weren't left disappointed as Robbie performed some of his classic songs such as ‘Angels’, ‘Millennium’ and ‘Rock DJ’ as well as his new songs ‘Party Like A Russian’ and ‘Love My Life’.

Fans were also given a Take That reunion when Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald joined Robbie onstage for an emotional performance of ‘Back For Good’ and ‘The Flood’.
