Musicians and Glastonbury fans tell stories of their favourite performances and stand-out moments from over the years.

Glastonbury: 50 Years and Counting

11pm-12.30am, BBC Two and BBC iPlayer

BBC Two broadcasts a newly re-versioned and revamped edition of this film, with footage from Glastonbury 2022. New footage includes extracts from Wet Leg's performance on the Park Stage, Greta Thunberg's speech on the Pyramid Stage and new interviews with 2022 performers Arlo Parks and Billie Eilish - Glastonbury's youngest ever solo headliner - bringing the story of the festival right up to date.

Francis Whately's film is a social and musical history of (probably) the world's greatest music festival, as told by its principal curators, Michael and Emily Eavis, and many of the key artists who have appeared there since its inception in 1970 - Billie Eilish, Thom Yorke, Florence Welch, Dua Lipa, The Levellers, Aswad, Orbital, Fatboy Slim, Linda Lewis, who sadly passed away earlier this year, Noel Gallagher, Ed O'Brien, Chris Martin, Stormzy and more. Balancing the driving forces of social conscience and hedonism, Glastonbury has always been both a world apart and a barometer of the state of the nation. Looking at the hippie days, Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, the contribution of the travellers, dance music, Britpop, the impact of television and the first black British solo headliner, this film takes viewers backstage and deep into the archive to reveal the forces that have driven this alternative nation between utopia and dystopia, the greatest night of your life and a muddy field in the middle of nowhere.

The band says: "We're thrilled to be 6 Music's Artist in Residence in June. Join us to hear our Glastonbury anthems, musical inspirations and why 1985 was the greatest year for music, ever."

6 Music's Artist In Residence is a journey into the musical soul of an artist, based around a theme or mood. Each episode finds the host playing records that have informed specific periods of their life.
