BBC Confirms Neil Young Glastonbury Set Will Be Televized Live After All
Neil Young's on-off relationship with the BBC and Glastonbury appears to have been resolved, for now, and the singer's set will be shown live tonight on the national broadcaster. Yesterday, the BBC said the iconic singer's performance on the Pyramid Stage would not be available to watch at Young's request, with the BBC planning to instead show Charli XCX's performance from the Other Stage. More from Deadline BBC Storyville Seeking New Head Following Role Closures & 20% Reduction In Films BBC News Presenters Back Demand For Strike Vote As Colleagues Face Compulsory Layoffs BBC To Charge U.S. Audiences For News For First Time As of the past few minutes, this has been reversed. 'We are delighted to confirm that Neil Young's headline set from Glastonbury on Saturday will be broadcast live to audiences across the UK on the BBC,' said a spokeswoman. 'It will be on iPlayer's Pyramid Stage stream from 10pm, as well as BBC Two and Radio 2. Our on-demand plans continue to be finalised.' Young's relationship with Glastonbury and the BBC has been rocky for months. Earlier this year, after he had been confirmed as headliner, he and his Chrome Hearts band initially said they were pulling out of the country's biggest music fest because it was under the 'corporate control' of the BBC. This was also reversed shortly afterwards. Young's will he-won't is not the biggest controversy at this year's Glastonbury, which is attended by more than 200,000 people and kicked off properly yesterday. In a few hours' time, controversial Irish hip-hop trio Kneecap will take to the West Holts Stage and the BBC is still not clarifying how it will go about covering the set. One of the group's members, Mo Chara, is currently bailed on a terror charge after displaying a flag at a London gig in support of Hezbollah – a proscribed terrorist group in the UK. This came a few months after counter-terrorism police said they were assessing videos of a bandmember allegedly telling fans at a gig: 'The only good Tory is a dead Tory. Kill your local MP.' In a Guardian interview yesterday, the band said they were 'in character' when displaying the flag. 'S**t is thrown on stage all the time. If I'm supposed to know every f***ing thing that's thrown on stage… I'd be in Mensa, Jesus Christ,' said Mo Chara, AKA Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh. All eyes are trained on Kneecap and in what form they appear on the national broadcaster, which has said 'our plans will ensure that our programming will meet our editorial guidelines.'

Glastonbury day four: Who is playing and how hot will it get?
Festival-goers are in for another hot one today, as day four of Glastonbury 2025 kicks off with sunshine on the forecast. Acts gracing the Pyramid Stage today will include John Fogerty, Raye, and Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts, as well as a mystery "Patchwork" performance. Over on the Other Stage, big crowds are expected for Charli XCX and the Ezra Collective. Artist Doechii will be making her first Glastonbury appearance on the West Holts Stage this evening. In his first performance at Glastonbury since 2019, Tom Odell has a set scheduled later tonight for Woodsies, which featured a surprise pre-lunchtime set from Lorde on Saturday 27 June. The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and the Met Office's amber heat-health alert is still in force today, with people urged to be cautious in the sun. Temperatures are expected to reach highs of 26 degrees today, with the mercury set to rise closer to 30 on Sunday (29 June). The UKHSA South West has issued the following advice for those at Glastonbury Festival: Stay hydrated and avoid excessive alcohol consumption, particularly in hot weather as this may dehydrate you. There are over 800 water taps across the site, carry a refillable bottle with you throughout the day Seek shade wherever you can, wear (or improvise) a hat, and wear sunglasses to protect your eyes Loosen your clothing and allow the air to circulate Reapply sunscreen and cover up, Factor 30 or above is good, but covering your skin is better If attending with a small child, turn their pushchair away from the sun rather than covering it for shade, covering the pushchair will increase the temperature inside Know the symptoms of heat exhaustion and heatstroke and what to do if you or someone else has them If you or someone you know feels ill or faints, seek help from stewards, security or the medical services on site.
