A list of the top-ten highest-grossing reformed bands has been revealed.

Unsurprisingly, Take That take the top spot by a country mile, earning around £130,000,000 since they got back together in 2005.

Second place goes to the Spice Girls, while Blur (pictured above) and Stone Roses trail in the third and fourth positions.

More shockingly, however, 90s novelty dance routine masters Steps come fifth, above Sex Pistols, Pulp and Happy Mondays.

Elsewhere, Madness and Simple Minds complete the top ten.

Check out the full list below:

1. Take That – £130 million
2. Spice Girls – £25 million
3. Blur – £15 million
4. The Stone Roses – £12 million
5. Steps – £10 million
6. Madness – £5 million
7. Simple Minds – £3 million
8. Sex Pistols – £2.5 million
9. Pulp – £1.5 million
