    Paul Heaton was excellent in bits I saw, Sugababes got the big crowd going too.

    Anne-Marie also has a great voice live, shame most of her songs are bobbins.

    Theres longer coverage of sets on BBC4. BBC2 seems to just be highlights.

    And BBC1 has the full headline sets live.

    Tonights headliner isn't live on BBC television. It is live on the iPlayer though.

    Has she some sort of electronic auto tune - very strange act on a few levels - basically like no atmosphere in audience at all - or audio from stage like cancels out audience. .

    By the way not sure she is singing live - odd sound.

    That idles set had some energy.…hard to watch the singing dancers after that...

    Having backup dancers is annoying to watch.

    Dua Lipa seems to be performing more for TV cameras than the crowd. Like a Eurovision act with the dancers.
    I’m not convinced she’s singing live either. I do like her songs though.

    I just switched over from Idles on BBC4. Now that was a performance. What a band. They were great in Malahide on Wednesday too.

    Dua Lipa is boring. She has some real pop bangers for the radio, but she is definitely not a headline act.

    Dua Lipa isnt really hitting it for me, as mentioned you can't hear the crowd at all it's like we're only getting what they hear on stage

    Watching it here but god who even goes to that, at this hour, at Glastonbury. So much choice you could be mad out of it in some tent somewhere with banging techno and great vibes. Each to their own I guess.

    WHich iplayer channel for Fontaines? Using el dodgo boxerino.....just has 5 Glastonbury channels, but they're not split up in the usual stages.

    Dua Lipa was enjoyable, but enough of that now!! She is only lovely tho.....and great to see a star as big as her with sone humility

    I thought the only bit that was a suspect was when she was out in the crowd on the mini stage thing...looked a lot like miming there

    I switched back over to Dua Lipa, and seemed she was doing a for TV performance...odd so quickly back over to Idles.

    Curious, did she bring up Palestine in the performance?

    Idles was an immense show, they're energy and presence is something else.

    Fountaines did well, not sure if it's his style or not but his energy usually failed to match the band, also think they had a meteoric rise to fame, maybe before they were ready, but look to be turning a corner a bit now
