Boyzone manager Louis Walsh has given his blessing to the group's reunion plans.

The X Factor judge admitted that he wants the band's tour to be as successful as the current Take That shows.

"I saw Take That in Dublin last week and it's amazing how good they all look - especially Gary Barlow," Walsh told The People. "The Boyzone lads will have to work if they want to compete. But I've been talking to all of them about the reunion and it's looking hopeful."

Band member Stephen Gately added, "It's now just a case of agreeing a time when everyone is free. I've started to hit the gym again to get fitter for the dance moves. I've also started a healthy diet."
