Listening to The Wiggles perform Hot Potato with a beer in hand is not everyone's idea of a good time.
But it is now an option for those who grew up with the original cast: Jeff Fatt (purple), Greg Page (yellow) and Murray Cook (red) who retired in 2012, leaving Anthony Field (blue) as the only original Wiggle in the new line-up.
Field announced the dream team, who formed 25 years ago, will reunite for an R18 charity pub performance in January.
He aired the idea on his Twitter account, to test the waters last week.

Former child fans responded instantly, and the answer was a resounding 'yes' prompting him to tweet back with more information.

A venue and date have not been confirmed, and it is still unclear whether they will bring old pals Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog, Captain Feathersword or the Big Red Car.
The show's format is also yet to be revealed, but there's no doubt it will be packed with old favourites. With Field based in Sydney, it's likely the gig will be held there, but so far Field has not responded to queries. Many are pleading for The Wiggles to come to their hometowns, with a handful of hopefuls making a bid for them to cross The Ditch.
If online feedback is anything to go by, it's clear there will be plenty of people in line to snap up tickets once they go on sale!
