Noel Gallagher made an emotional dedication of his song Half The World Away to late comedian Caroline Aherne.
Playing in front of about 80,000 fans at the Heaton Park homecoming gig, Oasis songsmith Gallagher said the song was for Aherne and her Royle Family co-star Craig Cash.
Aherne, a close friend of Gallagher, died in 2016 aged 52.
She played Denise in the hit BBC comedy, alongside Cash as her dopey boyfriend Dave.
