They married on 7 August last year and are still pretty inseparable - but there  was no sign of Ayda Field's husband Robbie Williams when she turned up for a Take That party in Manchester last night.

However, it's unlikely that Robbie, 37, was very far away - he wouldn't want to have missed his lady's fab outfit.

The 32-year-old actress was wearing a tiny black and white mini dress and knee-high suede boots that showed off her toned legs as she arrived at the city's Panacea restaurant and bar.

Not only that, she had a backcombed bouffanted do that left her looking not a little like Jennifer Lopez.

But considering it was a Take That party to celebrate their eight-date run at the city's Manchester, members of the man band were quite thin on the ground - or else they'd sneaked in via the back door.

Jason Orange was the only one seen outside the bash - and from his bleary-eyed demeanour, appeared to have had a great time.

Pet Shop Boy frontmant Neil Tennant was also there.

However, there was no sign of Howard Donald and Mark Owen either - perhaps they were still stuck inside the Progress tout's giant robot.

Today's Sun says that the pair were left stranded in the hands of the 100ft mechanical beast, called OM, on Saturday night at the City Of Manchester Stadium.

Howard and Mark were in OM's palms as they sang new single Love Love while Robbie, Gary Barlow and Jason were stood on the torso.

The arms were meant to lower as the song continued, allowing the duo to step off onto the stage at the end.

But a mechanical failure meant they were left suspended in the air and they had to be rescued by roadies with ladders.

An embarrassed Gary told the sell-out crowd: 'Normally at this point in the show we're all standing here together.

'But it seems that despite 300 people working on this show, you still get some hitches.' 

Take That's Progress tour continues tomorrow night in Manchester, the fourth date in the city.
