Paul McCartney's Glasto show

Comedian Steve Coogan was among thousands of fans watching Sir Paul McCartney on the pyramid stage – and reviewed the set as it unfolded, with a bit of Alan Partridge thrown in.

Among thousands of fans watching Sir Paul McCartney at Glastonbury in the summer, the Â鶹Éç's entertainment correspondent, Colin Paterson, unexpectedly stumbled into Steve Coogan. For 5 Minutes On, Colin persuaded the actor and comedian to review the set, as Sir Paul made history by becoming the festival's oldest ever solo headliner. Coogan even threw in a line from his much loved character, Alan Partridge, saying, "Alan Partridge was asked, 'What's your favourite Beatles album?', and he said, 'Err, that's a tough question... I think I would have to say 'The Best of the Beatles'."

Along the way, Sir Paul duets with Bruce Springsteen and Dave Grohl, plays Something on George Harrison's own ukulele - and blows the fireworks budget for a thrilling Live And Let Die.
