Thu, 28 Apr 2011

Carl Barat cast even more doubt on a full reunion with bandmate Pete Doherty and the remaining Libertines last night, saying the band have no plans to continue 'as it stands' reports BBC Radio1 Newsbeat.

The group, minus Pete, attended the premiere of their 90 minute documentary film charting the bands return at last years Reading and Leeds Festivals. The film is called 'There Are No Innocent Bystanders' and is directed by photographer Roger Sargent.

It features candid interviews with each of the band members, archive footage and coverage of their rehearsals in the run-up to their return at London's Forum and Reading and Leeds

"It's the end of a chapter for sure for me," said Barat. "Tonight a curtain is falling on something."

Nearly 2,000 fans were in attendance for the first showing of the film at the Troxy theatre in East London.

It was also the official opening of the 10th annual East End film festival.
