Shane MacGowan duetted with Pete Doherty at his comeback show at the London Kentish Town Forum.

The Pogues frontman joined Babyshambles for a version of 'Dirty Old Town' during the middle of the band's set.

Afterwards Doherty's group performed a cover of Squeeze's hit single 'Cool For Cats'. They also played 16 tracks from their debut album Down In Albion and sophomore release Shotter's Nation.

It was the first concert Doherty has played since being released from Wormwood Scrubs prison last week.

Fans invaded the stage and battled with security staff on several occasions during the show, reports NME.
