Laura130262, thank you for posting your reasons behind your vote. I can understand all your points as it was a big occasion that they had finally re-united after all that happened through the years.

The hype around progress was huge and also the same for the single before we knew what it was. I loved their first performance of the Flood on the X Factor, it was really epic. Progress has some great moments but the album is great in parts and not so great in others for me, its an album i feel has dated very quickly with the exception of a few songs. I have to say the flood is one of my favourite songs ever by them.

Can the upcoming Wonderland ever get a look in, in the future in polls like this, based on how everything is going far, the most likely answer is no

Three is my favourite era. The album is great from start to finish. No fillers.

I just love BW. Every song is classic TT, and to have Patience, Shine and RTW on it shows it's something special

BW would have been such a perfect era if they'd released 'Reach Out' instead of 'I'd Wait For Life'. I still can't believe that. Mindless.

Slowdown, in terms of the album, III is my favorite era as well - I love most of the songs on that album and especially WYBTFM. But, like I said, in terms of promotion and everything else, BW beats it for me.
Pippa, I think if we had a poll of worst TT era, at the moment, Wonderland could top it I'm hoping it can only get better, cause I can't see how it can possibly get any worse- is there something less of 0 promotion? The only saving grace for me, so far, has been the b-side, Loving or Leaving (although I'm still trying to figure out the lyrics ). |

Yes i would fear the same for Wonderland as it has got off to such a bad start with the performance of Giants. That said, Sure was a terrible start to Nobody Else and looked what happened after, 2 of their most iconic singles. Until i hear the new material i will hope something like this will happen.
At this point, i am not even confident the album will make number 1. I partially expect it to enter at number 2 behind Ed Sheeran holding number 1 for a third week. |

In fairness, Giants (although it should and COULD have gone higher), still went in at top 15 with zero promo, but I am starting to be a little worried for Wonderland's position.
Realistically it should have 40k already in the bag from the presale. Are there signed copies being released too? I'm hoping Ed is very front loaded this week and then is around the 50/60k mark when TT release |

Yes, Gary said there are signed boxsets of Wonderland - well, I remember him saying something about the boxset, I might have imagined the signed part
I'm worried too about Wonderland It seems Ed has sold over 200k in just one day |

I expect Ed sheeran to have huge sales this week so that should help Take That when they challenge for number 1. Im hoping they can get another number 1 but its hard to know if they will do it, i really hope they have some promotion for the album release week.

Good to see that progress still holds higher first day sales than Ed though.

I agree with Laura, it has got to be Progress. It was amazing having all five members in the band and I enjoyed the singles that were released.

Circus was the best era I think. Everything came together for them during it: the album, singles, tour, live performances, etc

The ultimate collection era was great too as it's success was so unexpected,at the time I was expecting a possible top 10 and fall and at most sell 100,000 largely nostalgia sales. How wrong I was and then the BW era came and was even bigger,hard to believe that both combined raked up 5 million UK sales.

The sales for both those albums and the 2 follow ups were really incredible.

We all knew it could never last but the sharpness of the decline was what i found the hardest.
