After vowing never to return 'in a million years', Charlie Simpson has reportedly agreed to jump right back on the Busted bandwagon.
It's been ten years since Simpson left the chart-topping three-piece 10 years ago to form the acclaimed alt-rock band Fightstar and a fairly successful solo career. It's now been revealed by The Sun, that Simpson plans to crawl back into the Busted hovel.
While fans of the pop-rock trio are shocked beyond belief, the remainder two members of the band, Matt and James, are in greater awe, with the insider saying: "It's amazing because Matt and James have always said there's more chance of pigs flying than Charlie coming back to Busted.
"But this is something that has been secretly discussed for a number of months - it was important the three guys felt they could work together again and get along as friends."

This news arrives with a specific bitterness since Charlie was offerred a place in the McBusted supergroup was turned the offer down. He sold his share of the Busted brand to the other members for a six figure sum, enough to fund a really, actually good Fightstar album. Meanwhile, McBusted continued to tour on the nostalgia circuit.
The insider added: "Obviously McBusted's success, including financial figures, must have had something to do with Charlie's decision" - sell out.
