“@garyjkemp will be our host for a track by track guide to the @SpandauBallet classic album, True,” he added. “Your name is on the guestlist… Join us.”

Fans will no doubt be hoping Gary addresses brother Martin’s suggestion that the group could reunite with Tony Hadley for a special NHS benefit gig later this year.

New Order and OMD are among the other retro pop acts who have appeared on the #TimsTwitterListeningParty series.
