Queues as Glastonbury Festival opens in Somerset

Thousands of people are queuing to get into Glastonbury Festival with some waiting in traffic for up to five hours overnight.

Heavy rain and flooding has turned parts of the site into a mudbath.

Roads around the area are at a standstill, with organisers asking anyone driving there who has not set off to leave later.

Patrick May and his friends, from Weymouth, set off at 03:00 BST but got stuck on Somerset's roads.
