Yeah it’s really sad … don’t know what more we can do ? Unless one of the locals can ask Michael or Emily what’s happened ? Or one of the bigger Glastonbury accounts can ask the question? 

@Gnomicide maybe? He seems to have Emily’s ear…

I'll give it a go, obvs me an Emily are bezzies so I'm sure she'll get up a ladder and turn it back on again if I ask.

I was going to ask on the 19th when it'll be 6 years since the start of the Radiohead painting.

Isnt the camera collaboration with the BBC?  Though I suppose if the reason it’s off is to respect the privacy of the farm, as it says, then it’s them who will decide if it’s to be reinstated.    Really missing it at the moment. 

I'm guessing that while the site remains closed to visitors, and the signs stay up, that we'll continue to see the webcam left off.  Switching it on might be seen by some as an invitation to visit.

That’s not really much different now to normal is it … the standard response has been to stick to the footpaths even in pre covid times

Yes, anytime we visited we just stuck to the gravel paths and roadways avoiding the fields, respecting the country code.  Others seemed to be doing the same.  Would love to see the camera back up working, can’t see it being too much of an intrusion as it points away from the farm and buildings. Unless the cows are shy and don’t like the publicity.

Hopefully they turn the camera back on the the start of the build in March, it's always been part of the build up in recent years for me watching the site grow and the fence go up.

I think @Ayrshire Chris is right that the BBC control the camera judging by the statement on their website "To respect the privacy of the farm, we’ve switched off the live BBC Glastonbury Webcam for the time being. Instead, you can explore our beautiful archive shots."

    • Skylink is 24 hours... But the skylink will drop you off at Pegasus business Park or EMA (East Midlands Airport) where you'll have to use the Download shuttle link, which isn't 24 hours. The last shuttle from the Download transport hub to EMA is 12:15 TrentBarton / Local bus info here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/download2026   Skylink Derby / Leicester / Loughborough timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/services/skylinkderby  Shuttle timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/userfiles/hotel.pdf If you miss the shuttle, which is very doubtful, you'll just have to find another way to EMA / Pegasus business park, maybe a taxi. You could even walk to EMA from the Download transport hub, wouldn't take too long. Just make sure you use the airport's 'circular path' instead of the dangerous roads.  I walk the circular path often, it's nice and easy. I would post instructions but I very much doubt you'll miss the shuttle, and if you do, it isn't hard to work out. The footpath is clearly signposted from directly opposite / across the road from where the download map has labelled "Pickup and Drop Off Exit." 
    • So for Harry Styles it was actually a plastic bag that basically blocks the view of the front and back cameras. You can still use the phone screen. It's much easier than using lockers, especially for people leaving for the last train etc    I think it's basically reliant on the threat of security kicking you out if you start filming.
    • Hey, does anybody have a joining link for the WhatsApp group plz? I know the secret sets get posted there but have a new phone and number
