Gary Barlow teams up with Lord Lloyd Webber

Take That star Gary Barlow has teamed up with Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber to write a track for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations.

"It is a huge honour to be involved in this historic occasion and I am looking forward very much to working with Gary," Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber told Chris Evans on his BBC Radio 2 show. "We both realised that there was a possibility that we would both be writing a song for the Jubilee to celebrate the Queen. So I called Gary and said: 'Are you doing it? Because someone's talked to me about it', and we thought it best to join forces."

The unlikely collaboration will be performed live at the Diamond Jubilee Concert, which has been organised by Gary Barlow, outside Buckingham Palace on June 4.
