Gracie Abrams and Snow Patrol to play TRNSMT's last day as hot weather continues
Those attending Glasgow Green will hear from Gracie Abrams, Jade, Myles Smith and Tom Walker, among others.
Indie artist Jake Bugg told the PA news agency on Saturday that Scottish crowds 'have always been great', adding: 'I've always enjoyed every gig I've played here (Glasgow).'
Dylan McNish, 22, attended the festival with his dad, Duncan, 49, from Corby, to see Fontaines DC, the penultimate act on Saturday.
Speaking at their first festival together, Dylan said: 'I'm not coping with the heat so well.
'But the atmosphere has been great. We are seeing Inhaler. We are buzzing for Underworld. Thumbs up so far.'
Fontaines DC played to an energetic crowd in the evening, with some of the biggest cheers being 'free Palestine' chants.
Biffy Clyro headlined the night before tens of thousands of fans left Glasgow Green for home.
Aimie Race, 47, who took her daughter to her first festival, said she 'could not have asked for better weather'.
'It's been really nice here. Everyone is really friendly. Everyone has desperately been looking out for shady spots but we are enjoying the sunshine.'
Beth Ballantyne, 21, said she passed out on Friday due to the heat, but pledged to persevere, describing TRMSMT as '10 out of 10'.
Daniel Clare, an 18-year-old who travelled from Dublin with his two friends, said he was disappointed that Kneecap was removed from the festival.
He urged people to 'drink water and have a good time' amid the sweltering heat.
Norm McDonald, 16, said he was 'cooking' and 'scared' of getting burned, although that did not stop him from going shirtless throughout the entire festival.
He described 50 Cent's set as 'nine out 10' and said he would have given it a 10 if he didn't lose his friends for the rapper's set.
His friend Carson Smith, also 16, was more impressed, giving the Friday a 'banging 10 out of 10'.
'The sun's out,' he said, 'That's all that matters.'

Ashleigh Willmot, 29, travelled from Essex to see Biffy Clyro – a band she had never seen before Saturday.
'I was expecting it to be raining, so I'm underprepared, but I'm loving it – it's amazing,' she said.
'Everyone is super chill here. Everyone is doing their own thing – it's great.
'Everyone is happy. It's really good, the buzz.'
Six people have been arrested and charged in connection with various offences in and around the area of Glasgow Green following the opening night of a festival.https://t.co/pPNUDBDyMw pic.twitter.com/FK60Rv0Q6P

Police Scotland said it made six arrests on Friday around Glasgow Green, including a hate crime charge.
Police had a visible presence throughout the festival, and more arrests are expected to be made as it comes to a close.
Scottish singer Amy Macdonald played a secret set on the second day of the festival, although many fans of Wunderhorse were left disappointed after the band dropped out due to illness, with singer Miles Kane replacing them.
Norwegian artist Sigrid also took to the main stage on Saturday, donning a tartan TRNSMT top.
She told the PA news agency it was one of the hottest shows she had ever done, but said it was 'really fun'. However, she admitted to not 'feeling very well' amid the hot afternoon sun during her set.
Those attending Sunday have been urged to seek the shade, wear hats and put on sunscreen as the sunny weather continues.
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde also urged music fans to drink plenty of water during the heat.

Bargain Hunt's Anita Manning's life now as she sports natural look
Anita Manning has been a familiar face on our TV screens for many years, having been a popular expert on BBC's Bargain Hunt since 2010. But what is she up to now? Anita Manning, a seasoned expert on Bargain Hunt, is making a comeback to the BBC daytime series in a presenter role. She has been an integral part of the antiques show for many years. Her television career kicked off in 2010 and viewers quickly warmed up to Anita, recognising her for her quirky style and delightful Scottish accent. The 77 year old was often seen sporting her signature black bob, always impeccably styled. However, she's now spotted embracing her natural grey hair, which has been cut even shorter as part of a dramatic transformation. Hosting an auction on an episode of Bargain Hunt, she was almost unrecognisable. Touted as Scotland's first female auctioneer, Anita has been in the industry for over five decades, having started in the 1970s. Initially, she studied PE and dance before shifting her focus to buying and selling furniture. Since 1989, she has been at the helm of the Glasgow auction house Great Western Auctions alongside her daughter Lala. Anita frequently keeps her followers updated on her bustling schedule at the auction house, which has continued to flourish over the years. The auction house has been closed for the summer break but has just reopened on July 14, with the first set of sales taking place on July 23 and 24. Anita participates in numerous charity events as lending a helping hand to others is one of her greatest passions. In 2024, she marked a significant milestone with the sale of a Francis Campbell Boileau Cadell still-life piece titled Dahlias, which fetched a handsome £220,000. As the managing director and auctioneer, Anita commenced the auction with an opening bid of £80,000, and later reflected: "Scottish Colourist still life works remain in demand, with an international fanbase." She further observed: "They are fresh, modern-looking, instantly recognisable and have a universal appeal, a century on from being created." When not immersed in her professional duties, Anita enjoys personal time with her family, including her son Luke who resides in Hong Kong. With her 77th birthday approaching on December 1, she is likely looking forward to some cherished moments with her loved ones.

Gregg Wallace gives statement after 45 allegations 'substantiated'
Gregg Wallace gives statement after 45 allegations 'substantiated' The BBC has said it has no plans to work with the former Masterchef presenter again Gregg Wallace (Image: Dominic Lipinski/PA ) Former MasterChef presenter Gregg Wallace has said he was 'deeply sorry' for the distress his behaviour caused and said he 'never set out to harm or humiliate'. It comes as a report said that a total of 45 out of the 83 allegations made against him during his time on the show were substantiated, including one allegation of 'unwelcome physical contact'. In a statement to the PA news agency, he said: 'For eight months, my family and I have lived under a cloud. Trial by media, fuelled by rumour and clickbait. None of the serious allegations against me were upheld. I challenged the remaining issue of unwanted touching but have had to accept a difference in perception, and I am deeply sorry for any distress caused. It was never intended. 'I'm relieved that the Banijay report fully recognises that my behaviour changed profoundly in 2018. Some of my humour and language missed the mark. I never set out to harm or humiliate. I always tried to bring warmth and support to MasterChef, on screen and off. 'After nearly 20 years on the show, I now see that certain patterns, shaped by traits I've only recently begun to understand, may have been misread. I also accept that more could have been done, by others and by myself, to address concerns earlier. 'A late autism diagnosis has helped me understand how I communicate and how I'm perceived. I'm still learning. Banijay have given me great support, and I thank them. But in the end, the BBC left me exposed to trial by media and the damage it leaves in its wake. 'To those who've shown kindness, thank you. It mattered. This has been brutal. For a working-class man with a direct manner, modern broadcasting has become a dangerous place. I was the headline this time. But I won't be the last. Article continues below 'There will be more casualties if the BBC continues down this path, where protecting its legacy matters more than protecting people. For my part, with full legal support, I will consider my next move.' In November 2024 the show's production company, Banijay UK, announced that Wallace would step away from his role on MasterChef while historical allegations of misconduct were investigated. The report, led by law firm Lewis Silkin, found that the 'majority of the allegations against Mr Wallace (94%) related to behaviour which is said to have occurred between 2005 and 2018', with only one allegation substantiated after 2018. It also concluded that the 'majority of the substantiated allegations against Mr Wallace related to inappropriate sexual language and humour', adding that 'a smaller number of allegations of other inappropriate language and being in a state of undress were also substantiated', with 'one incident of unwelcome physical contact' also substantiated. The report noted that during the course of the investigation, which was over a seven-month period, Wallace was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, and said that the findings should be viewed in the context of his neurodiversity. During the investigation, it was also found that '10 standalone allegations were made against other people, two of which were substantiated', relating to inappropriate language, one for swearing and the other for racist language. Wallace, 60, has been 'co-operative and forthcoming' and was interviewed three times by the investigations team, for a total of more than 14 hours of interview. But Banijay UK said that 'Wallace's return to MasterChef (is) untenable' following the number of sustained allegations. Patrick Holland, chief executive of Banijay UK, said that while the report 'makes for uncomfortable reading, highlighting failures in legacy reporting and HR procedures', it also provided 'valuable insight to ensure that going forward everyone working on our productions feels safe and supported, and that inappropriate behaviour is quickly and professionally dealt with'. Mr Holland added: 'In earlier years, specifically prior to 2016 where the vast majority of these issues arose, it is clear that escalation procedures were not as robust as they should have been, and awareness of policies and procedures were lacking particularly amongst freelance staff.' He said Wallace would not be returning to MasterChef, adding: 'We are extremely sorry to anyone who has been impacted by this behaviour and felt unable to speak up at the time or that their complaint was not adequately addressed. MasterChef is a much-loved show which, year in, year out, changes the lives and careers of contestants, amateur and professional alike. It's made by a brilliant team of outstanding professionals and we look forward to bringing more exceptional cooking to screens in the coming months and years.' The BBC also said it has 'informed' Wallace that it has 'no plans to work with him in future', adding in a statement: 'The investigation details a substantial number of allegations of inappropriate conduct spanning 19 years. This behaviour falls below the values of the BBC and the expectations we have for anyone who works with or for us. 'Although the full extent of these issues were not known at the relevant time, opportunities were missed to address this behaviour, both by the production companies running MasterChef and the BBC. We accept more could and should have been done sooner.' The BBC also addressed the future of a series of MasterChef filmed last year which has not yet been aired, saying they had not made a final decision on broadcasting it, adding: 'We know this is disappointing for fans of the show and those who took part, and at the appropriate time Banijay UK will consult further with the amateur contestants. Their statement added: 'We want to reaffirm, there is no place for the abuse of power, unacceptable behaviour or language at the BBC, or shows made for the BBC.' Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy said the allegations against Wallace were 'horrendous and appalling', and she welcomed the BBC's decision to end its association with the MasterChef presenter. Ms Nandy said: 'However, this case highlights a wider issue and much more must be done to ensure that everyone working in the creative industries is treated with dignity, fairness, and respect. That is why we are urging the whole sector to support the Creative Industries Independent Standards Authority (CIISA), which will uphold and improve standards of behaviour to protect those working in the creative industries. We are looking at ways to ensure that CIISA has proper buy-in and support from across the sector, so that unacceptable behaviour and abuses of power are prevented from happening in the future.' Last year a BBC News investigation revealed a string of allegations of inappropriate sexual comments and alleged inappropriate behaviour against Wallace by 13 people who worked with him across a range of shows over a 17-year period, including former Newsnight host Kirsty Wark. A statement from Wallace's lawyers at the time said that it 'is entirely false that he engages in behaviour of a sexually harassing nature', as reported by BBC News. In December, Wallace claimed in an Instagram video that complaints about his behaviour came from 'a handful of middle-class women of a certain age'. After a backlash, he apologised for any 'offence' or 'upset' caused and said he would 'take some time out'. Ahead of the official publishing of the external review, Wallace claimed in an Instagram post on July 8 that he had been cleared of the 'most serious and sensational accusations' against him. He added that his neurodiversity had 'now formally (been) diagnosed as autism', saying in the social media post that it was 'suspected and discussed by colleagues across countless seasons of MasterChef'. Article continues below His social media post and the report come as the TV presenter and former greengrocer faced claims from 50 or more people, as reported by BBC News last week, with the majority saying he made inappropriate sexual comments, and 11 women accused him of inappropriate sexual behaviour, such as groping and touching. Wallace was the original presenter of the BBC show Saturday Kitchen in 2002 and has also featured on Eat Well For Less?, Inside The Factory, Turn Back Time, Harvest and Supermarket Secrets. He was most known, however, for presenting MasterChef, MasterChef: The Professionals, and Celebrity MasterChef.
