It has been 40 years since the British cult classic loosely based on The Who's 1973 rock opera of the same name was released.

And to mark the occasion, the original cast of the film reunited at an evening in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust at Michelin-starred restaurant, Locanda Locatelli.

The star-studded event reunited Sting, Phil Daniels, Phil Davis, Leslie Ash, Mark Wingett and Trevor Laird, plus Director Franc Roddam on Tuesday evening.

The evening was dubbed 'Quadrophenia Tonight' and was organised to help raise funds to help support young people with cancer.  

The Who have been pivotal in raising millions of pounds for Teenage Cancer Trust over the years and played the first ever Teenage Cancer Trust at the Royal Albert Hall show back in 2000 as The Who and Friends.  

Legendary frontman of The Who Roger Daltrey CBE is Honorary Patron of Teenage Cancer Trust, the only UK charity providing specialist nursing and emotional support to young people with cancer.

Phil Daniels, who plays Jimmy Cooper in Quadrophenia said: I'm absolutely thrilled to attend An Evening with Quadrophenia...

'The film was such a big part of my life and for it to be celebrated 40 years on and raise money for such an incredible charity makes the anniversary even more special.'

In the film the character Jimmy, attempts to escape from his postal job by joining the Mods, a gang at loggerheads with their rivals, the Rockers.

The clash leads to trouble for Jimmy as well as a chance encounter with Steph, played by Leslie Ash.

Daniels, during an interview in 2015, said he could barely remember filming Quadrophenia.

He said: 'All I can remember about the film is working really hard. We shot it all in six weeks and we did the end first.

'It was quite interesting and it's kind of a nice way of doing a film where you do the end first, so at least you know where you've got to go with the character.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
