Take that, Robbie

- ,
Digital Spy reports that pop-star Robbie Williams is listed as co-owner on the renewed registration of the TAKE THAT trade mark. Digital Spy speculates that this may mean that Williams has plans to rejoin the band, which is in the middle of a comeback.

The IPKat is familiar with people who surf the patent register for clues as to new products which will be launched by big-hitters in the future, but he didn’t realise people were watching out for trade mark owners in such minute detail. However, he suspects the reason may be more prosaic – Take That are almost certainly reaping revenue from their first incarnation when Williams was a fully-fledged member of the band.

    Thanks to the electronic caveat system it is easy to monitor pop star/group trade marks. Will the Gary Glitter four class registration be renewed in May 2007?

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
