Once upon a time, these two noughties bands went toe to toe in the charts, then, like all good arch nemeses they teamed up against a greater evil (teen boybands). But now, the age-old feud is back and all eyes are on 2025 when the two groups will be facing off for the Busted vs McFly UK tour.

Last week, this RadioTimes.com writer witnessed Busted interrupting McFly's 21st birthday show at the O2 arena, bringing with them the challenge of a UK tour next year.

After throwing down the musical gauntlet (and smashing up Dougie Pointer's favourite guitar), the group released this statement: "The whole tour is to find out who’s a better band. Fans can decide. They can come and support their band and they might change their mind. It’s going to be a fight to the death."

While McFly replied: "Busted gatecrashed our show last night (not cool), and challenged us to a VS tour next year. They’re old men now, and we are gonna blow them and their carers off the stage next year.

“We’ve had a great time celebrating our 21st birthday this week and next year is going to be even better - P.S Busted Suck."
