Glastonbury - 2016: Friday Part 1 From their bird's eye studio view high up at Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset, presenters Jo Whiley, Mark Radcliffe, Lauren Laverne, Huw Stephens and roving reporters Gemma Cairney and Martin Dougan kick off a weekend of wide-ranging live coverage on BBC Two of Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts. Alongside all the news from the first day of the festival, there will be one or two performances from around the site and a special acoustic performance in the studio, as well as a short film from reporter James Ballardie who takes a look round the town of Glastonbury and explores its relationship with the festival. Plus a catch-up with Friday's headliners Muse as they prepare to take to the stage as the first Pyramid Stage headliners of the weekend.
