Mamma mia! moment fans have waited 40yrs for

- TOM BRYANT

IT was the moment ABBA fans had been waiting decades for.

Agnetha Faltskog, Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus and Anni-Frid Lyngstad last night sent music lovers into a spin as they reunited for the first time in the UK for 40 years.

The foursome walked the red carpet at the world premiere of their new Voyage show, featuring the foursome as digitally created younger selves – or “ABBA-tars”.

They spent 40 minutes talking to the world’s press and at one point Agnetha and Anni-Frid burst into a rendition of Mamma Mia.

The foursome even had an impromptu meander over to adoring fans who had come from across the globe to the purpose-built ABBA Arena in Stratford, East London.

Wearing an all-white outfit, Agnetha, 72, said: “It’s been emotional being together again and seeing all the fans who came to see us.”

Anni-Frid, 76, who arrived with a walking stick, added: “It was so exciting to come back together as a group after so many years.”
