McFly were in Chelmsford to sign copies of their seventh album Power to Play

McFly said their latest album was the "best" they had ever made, as they met fans at a city centre music store.

The pop group, who are celebrating 20 years since they got together, were at the HMV store in Chelmsford, Essex, to celebrate the release of their new album Power to Play.

The release of their seventh album comes ahead of their UK tour.

Harry Judd, who was born in Chelmsford, said it had been the "most exciting" album release since their first.

"We genuinely believe this is the best music we've ever made and it's so nice to see the fans' reactions," the drummer added.
