Marti Pellow, Graeme Clark, Tommy Cunningham and Neil Mitchell formed in Clydebank in the 1980s, and reached number one in 1988 with a cover of With a Little Help from My Friends.

Their biggest hit came in 1994, when their version of Love Is All Around - from the soundtrack of Four Weddings and a Funeral - stayed at number one for 15 weeks.

Pellow recently won the BBC's duet singing showdown Just The Two Of Us with ex-EastEnders star Hannah Waterman.

Their reunion tour follows soon after fellow 1990s chart toppers Take That recently saw their new album hit the top spot following a sell-out UK tour.

Ticket's for Wet Wet Wet's tour will go on sale on 19 January.
