LAST NIGHT, BBC aired a documentary which saw James Cordon hitting the UK’s open roads with Gary Barlow. When Cordon Met Barlow followed the lads on a road-trip, but one stop-off in particular caused viewers to lose the plot.

Barlow surprised the bride after a lengthy campaign from the bride Lou’s maid-of-honour, Emily Alcorn. #getgary2louswedding has been ongoing for a year and has seen fans all over the world tweet signs with the request.
