One Direction's Liam Payne "can't believe" the band are already nearly half way through the European leg of their tour.

The five piece - also comprising Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson - are currently on their Take Me Home world tour, and played in Berlin last night (May 11).

Payne took to Twitter after the show to share his disbelief at how fast the tour dates are whizzing by.

He posted: "Cant believe the europe part of tours nearly half way throughhh ! Loved germany tonighttt :) (sic)."

Meanwhile Horan thanked the group's fans for their support.

"Berlin! Amazing show tonight! amazing crowd and amazing arena! Thank you soo much ! Love comin back to Germany! (sic)."

The Irish hunk also shared a particularly funny story with his millions of followers, explaining his braces are still causing him problems.

He wrote: "People at the last hotel ! Put my retainer on warm water now I just have a ball of plastic! Hahahah (sic)."
