Harry, Louis, Liam, Niall and Zayn were greeted by the usual screams from their hordes of fans as they belted their way through their hits, including current Comic Relief single 'One Way Or Another (Teenage Kicks)'.

At one point during the show, the boys were transported across the arena over the heads of fans to perform at a second stage in the centre of the O2.
