English National Ballet and Caro Emerald Glastonbury

It is a tour bus and it provides me with a bunk bed and my own toilet. I

need a body condoms for protection. A sense of humour. A sense of

humour, yes! Hello, welcome back to Glastonbury.

This is day three, the sun is shining and it is a great mood on

site. I love Sunday, it is when Bliss happens and everybody becomes

hippie inside and out. Definitely, and it is very much about Dolly

Parton. It is an optimistic, inclusive atmosphere and we are

delighted to be here bringing you some gorgeous music. We have got all

sorts of stuff today. We have got the English National Ballet, a

special piece they are doing. We have got so much good stuff to look

forward to. It is good to remember it is a festival of all sorts,

including contemporary art. I cannot wait to see some ballet. First, we

are going to cross to the Pyramid stage and a gentleman who has got a

very special connection with this event. It is Robert Plant from

yesterday. # River man.

# she's got rhythm. # ?? CAPNEXT with the no good,

starry man. # well, well, yeah.

# oh, the last time, she was sitting by the sea.

# and her banjo on her knee. # come on, now.

# oh, how kind. # just to see those two blue eyes.

# ?? CAPNEXT which are shining like a diamond, like a diamond in the

sky. # I am going down to the station #

with my suitcase in my hand. # I am going away into some far off,

distant land. # well, well, yeah. Oh, yes, oh,

yes. # oh, yeah.

# hey, baby, hey, baby. # oh!

Robert Plant providing the grid. Little Maggie, I loved that. We have

got some live music and this is a real treat. It is part of an amazing

musical tradition. 70 generations has come together to make a

wonderful record and they are playing for us now.

literally got shivers. I went to Mali last year and made a

documentary. That is just spellbinding. They are going to be

on the Pyramid stage this afternoon. I love the eclectic mix

of acts here. Talking about eclectic. Let's find out what the

English National Ballet are doing at Glastonbury.

The reason I started dancing was because of music. Michael Jackson,

you put a record on and I started dancing and that is why Glastonbury

is so special. It is special music. Of course I knew about Glastonbury,

but I never thought I would get to perform on that stage. All of us are

music fans. We would not be dancing if we did not like music. It is off

the Richter scale, I am excited. As an English girl and seeing it year

after year, it is an exciting thing to be part of. We are performing a

piece called Dust and it is by a choreographer called Akram Khan. It

started with an idea of doing something based around the First

World War. I did not want to show the men dying in the trenches. We

wanted to reflect that even though people are dying the women in the

factories still have to build weapons for the war. We wanted to

show the strength of the women showing at that time in the First

World War. They had to come to the factories every day and proved they

could do what the men were doing. There is the music and the movement

and you will see the powerful movement from the women instead of

the men. This piece is not classical ballet that we are used to dancing.

This is much more grounded movement, so a lot of the stuff is

very low and close to the floor. It is more like earthy movements. It is

very unusual for a classical ballet dancer. One of the things I have

noticed in many of the images of people in war is that they are

covered in Dust. It is like a snake that needs to be released in order

for a new life to start. There is one man in the centre and there is a

sequence of arms that you might say looks like wings. From there it

breaks up and the men go off to war and the women then take their

positions, the beats of the percussion come in, and they grow in

strength and our movements grow stronger and sharper. Halfway

through I will be left out on stage and I will start the duet with one

guy, which is beautiful. It explores our emotions and her pulling me back

and me trying to go back to where my friends are on the trench. It comes

after an extremely powerful piece of music and all of a sudden it is

right back to nothing. I just want to see the result and the reaction.

That is the bit that is making me nervous and excited at the same

time. Irina is my wife, so it is going to be extremely special, not

only to be performing in an incredible menu with an amazing

audience, it will be special performing with my wife. It will be

exciting dancing together. What more can you ask the van appearing at

Glastonbury? MUSIC RESUMES WITH RENDITION OF AULD

LANG SYNE CHEERING Absolutely incredible, so

unique and so beautiful. The sun is out and that was the English

National Ballet doing a special performance on the Pyramid stage and

I am enchanted. I was almost in tears, what a powerful piece. Look

at that huge crowd and that reaction. That is what is brilliant

about Glastonbury. What a great response for the English National

Ballet. And the main couple are married and they are in love, love

Sunday! Let's gather ourselves for some beautiful music who has played

the before. Sorry, that is going to happen in a minute. There is, we are

going to hear about the clean-up operation.

My name is Lucy Smith and I coordinate the green initiatives. I

started working in the press office, so now I work doing the green

initiative and it is completely different. We do a litter pick up at

six in the morning and that gets taken onto a lorry up to the

recycling centre. We have got conveyor belts and 2000 people

working, sorting all the rubbish, the cardboard, the tins and plastic

bottles. It is interesting looking through

old programmes which are talking about environmental messages and

banning polystyrene and they talk about recycling. Recycling has

always happened at the festival. We could just have black bins,

everything goes in the same thing, and we sent it to landfill, but

sustainability is at the heart of Glastonbury and is in the heart of

everyone who works at the festival. They want to reduce the impact on

the environment. It is important to remember how big

Glastonbury is and recycling on that scale is important and admirable.

The sustainable side of Glastonbury. I was over keen to get

to the music a moment ago. This gentleman has played the festival

before, but is playing the Pyramid stage for the first time. He is

herewith a special acoustic experience.

# dad, dad, dad, dumb, dumb. After all the people picking, people

picking people apart, my love. # after all the dealing, the hooking,

the reeling along from the start. # oh, there is a feel with them.

# out beyond rightness and wrong, meet me there. # woman, you are

living, you are loving, you are needing me.

# living, I am alive, sweet woman, keep loving me, O.

# because they wake up every morning with a cradle in their hands, but

they pretend it is a game. Acting like the place the truth

could only live was up a lane. # oh, there is a field, lead me

there. # please come along, tied that your

hair. # oh, oh, oh.

# I tried yesterday and it takes me so long to say, but I need you to

know. # darling, you show by leaving me

so, the only way to hold on is keep letting go.

# oh, there is a field, meet me there.

# you know, I am on my way, meet me there.

# oh, oh, oh. # there is a field, meet me there.

# I will be your rightness and wrong, meet me there.

# I am on my way, meet me there. # please, come along, tied back your

hair. # after all the people picking,

people picking people apart, my love. Fantastic. That was a

brilliant track from his debut solo album First Mind. Over on the

Pyramid Stage we have Caro Emerald. # I feel a little lazy.

To live in the hotel, it is heaven and it is hell, I do not know where

I stand. # there is a rumour flying in the

air. I am dating everyman, white can they not understand my life is not a

mess? # even if the words are untrue.

# I say to them for ever it is overdue. Don't wait. Because when I

fall in love, you will see the moon and every star declare it from

above. One day, the world will feel a spark, feel it in the day and in

the dark, the day it is really love. # so now I am in a prison. That I

put up myself. # when papers start a fire, it is

started by a liar that is crying out for help.

# I walk out into the lobby. It is one day in the life, but it cuts

like a knife. Nobody gets the last. # even if the words are all untrue,

I say to them, for ever, what is overdue?

# don't wait, because when I fall in love, you will see the moon and

every star declare it from above. # one day, the world will feel a

spark. Feel it in the day and in the dark. The day it is really love.

# when I am blue, or feeling sad, I am immune to any thing they do. #

SHE SCAT SINGS. # don't wait, because when I fall in

love, you will see the moon and every star declare it from above.

One day the world will feel a spark. Feel it in the day and in the dark,

the day it is really love. APPLAUSE thank you so much. Good afternoon,

Glastonbury. Well, I never dream and I would ever say that in my

lifetime. I am going to say it again. Good afternoon, Glastonbury!

I know you have just woken up. You must have. We are here to wake you

up. We are going to help you by playing groovy songs and we are

going to try and make you never forget about us. I hope you enjoyed

it. So, here is that the sun to come out. It is called breezy air of

life. # I am really tired of my concrete jungle. I am going to make

the great escape and go on a little way. I can get my motor, started up

and Headford the green. An endless countryside and go somewhere I have

never been. # kiss my blues goodbye, I'll start.

Thank you for today. I am sure that by candlelight I will be all right.

# Yeah. # it cleared my face so I could feel

the breeze. Mr, I do not know a soul. # I will drop off the keys,

look out of my window Bay. I would not want it any other way.

Kiss my blues goodbye. Read until I see the crazy nights. Breathing in

the air of life. Thank you for today.

# I am sure that by candlelight I will be all right. Breathing in the

air of life. Yeah. # so whenever my eyes get weary and I I am feeling

what life brings, for ever, when times are teary, I have nothing left

to lose. Ladies and gentlemen, please give it

up for Robert! # I will kiss my blues goodbye. Breathing in the air

of life. I smiled. Thank you for today. And I'm sure by candlelight I

will be all right, breathing in the air of life. SHE SCAT SINGS.

APPLAUSE thank you so much. I do not know about these heels. They are

really pretty. It is not comfortable at all. I am really guessing you

have had a few of these over the past days, or maybe even just now

you have already started. You have a little bit of a reputation for a

liquid lunch. # Baby, pass the aspirin,

something's gotta work # I know I did it to myself

but, man-oh-man, it hurts # That second last Martini,

the one that went down real smooth # Set me on the bender

with nothing left to lose # The girls got going

and we had a munch # I promise on a dime,

it's the last time # The girls got going

and we had a munch # Oh, I promise on a dime,

it's the last time # I think I've got the symptoms

and none of them will leave # They think that it's a party

to laugh at all my grief # It must've been a doozy,

I had 200 dreams # At least I found my pillow

cos I can't find my keys # The girls got going

and we had a munch # I promise on a dime

it's the last time # The girls got going

and we had a munch # Oh, I promise on a dime

it's the last time # Some exotic medicine

to cure my every ill # The girls got going

and we had a munch # I promise on a dime,

it's the last time # The girls got going

and we had a munch # Oh, I promise on a dime,

it's the last time That was amazing. I love a liquid

lunch. Caro Emerald on the Pyramid Stage. We will be back at 5pm with

Dolly Parton on the Pyramid
