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 ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳'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.
