Express & Star competition winner and Take That super fan Jenny Jones was still spinning today after her VIP night watching the band's second concert at Villa Park.

Jenny, 31, from Dudley, and friends Marie O'Toole, Cath Harding and Jennie Morgan were at last night's Birmingham concert where they were treated to sparkling wine, a slap-up three-course meal and the best seats in the house.

"My throat is hurting and I took advantage of the free drinks," laughed Jenny, who has never missed a Take That tour and has seen the band in concert at least 14 times.

"It's definitely the best show yet and I think that what made it for us really was where we were, where we were sitting and the whole experience. The atmosphere was just absolutely out of this world.

"It was brilliant because even though we were quite far back you couldn't have got a better view of absolutely everything. We were quite up high, so the view was absolutely brilliant."

Jenny and her friends arrived at about 5pm and were led to the Villa Park's VIP Sky Lounge.

"We were walking through and they were saying 'Go this way, go that way', and we were thinking oh God they're going to stick us in some sort of broom cupboard. They were giving out these VIP wrist bands and I said to someone 'Oh, can I have one of those?' and he said 'Trust me, where you're going is much better than this'.

"And when we got there it was just so posh. It was a level above where the corporate boxes are and there was a restaurant and balcony seats outside and it was so lovely. The staff there were just amazing, just so friendly. I just couldn't fault any of it at all.

"I asked someone who was sat next to me how much the tickets cost, just out of interest, and they said it was just over £200 a ticket. So we'd got nearly a thousand pounds worth of tickets. Absolutely fantastic."

Jenny said the highlight of the show for her was the finale Eight Letters, from Take That's Progress album

"It's my favourite song off the album and because it was the last song they sung, it was just really magical.

"It was brilliant but it always is at Take That. You come to expect that at a Take That show now. The size of the robot I don't think it could really get much bigger than that now. It was fab."
