Rock legends The Who brought the BBC Electric Proms to a theatrical close at London's Roundhouse.

The venue in Camden saw the rock veterans perform a 75-minute set of songs old and new.

According to NME, guitarist Pete Townshend, in light of the Roundhouse's £30 million makeover, joked: "Last time I played here it was dirty. Now it's clean and I'm dirty."

The band played a selection of songs from their new album, before unleashing classics such as 'My Generation' and 'Pinball Wizard'.

The performance marked the end of the four-day festival.
