THE NEWS EMERGED this morning that Jason Orange was quitting Take That.

Since then, Twitter has been having the absolute time of its life. There hasn’t been this much fun since the Second Royal Baby.

There were puns.

Some of these Jason Orange tweets are really pith poor.

Some of the comments about Jason Orange leaving Take That have been quite mean. It's a good job he's thick-skinned.

There were current affairs references.

Whoops!

We couldn't find this Tweet

Jason Orange hasn't left Take That. Gary Barlow's just found a scheme where you only have to declare three quarters of your band.

There were pop jokes.

Since leaving Take That, Jason Orange has already joined and left the Sugababes. Twice.

There were pointed observations about his skincare regime.

Whoops!

And about his dubious career choices.

At least that dream I had where Jason Orange was in a jungle eating Kangaroo balls makes more sense now.

There were memories of the Take That helpline.

This is the end. Is the helpline still working? #jasonorange

There were cruel personal remarks.

If you want to know what Take That will be like without Jason Orange just listen to any of their old songs

And there were even bitter former-X-Factor-winners.

Huge respect for Jason Orange. Has never sung a song in his life and is trending for leaving a vocal group. Take a bow.
