Peter is free

From BBC News:
Singer Pete Doherty has been released from prison after serving 29 days of a 14-week sentence for breaching the terms of his probation.
The Babyshambles frontman, who was freed from Wormwood Scrubs prison in west London, told reporters that he was glad to be out.
Doherty was sent to prison last month after missing appointments with his probation officers.
He had been given a suspended sentence for drugs and driving offences.
His supervision order required him to make regular visits to court for progress reports, as well as take part in a drug rehabilitation programme.
Doherty was forced to postpone a concert at the Royal Albert Hall, which would have been his biggest solo show yet.
The show was rescheduled and all tickets will be valid for the new date once it has been announced.
The singer would have missed his scheduled appearance at the Glastonbury Festival had he served the full sentence.
On his release from Wormwood Scrubs, Doherty said that he was looking forward to having a drink and spending some time with his pet cats.
