The Libertines have unveiled the short film that was shown to fans before their huge Hyde Park show, directed by Roger Sargent. Check it out in full below. 

The clip was screened to over 65,000 fans at their massive Hyde Park British Summer Time gig in London earlier this summer - featuring 15 minutes of footage and photos from Roger Sargent’s extensive Libertines archive, including unheard interview footage from Sargent’s acclaimed 2010 documentary, There Are No Innocent Bystanders and footage from Libertines Alley in Bethnal Green.

Sargent said: "I made this short film to be shown before the Hyde Park show and wanted it to convey how important the band are, how much we missed them and how good it was too have them back."
