Glastocam!

Glastobation can now commence in earnest.

EDIT: Here's a link to the webcam content on it's own, rather than in an iframe on the BBC site:

Its probably just the PC version with IE / Flash combination. Flash isn't on most phones / tablets now.

Excellent!

[marktea]

Simply superb

Will be glued to this over the next few weeks. Hope they manage to get the permissions to cover SE corner as well at some point.

It needs rotating a bit round to the left! There is nothing to see past the John Peel to the right yet we miss out West holts etc, though I do appreciate that it perhaps doesn't have that wider scope.

EDIT: The plot thickens....this seems to have been a temporary glitch (scanning/tracking problem?) The current image looks fine.

What's with the weird wobbly landscape on the right of the image? It doesn't look right to me:

Here's what it should look like, from the old webcam:

Agreed. the camera pan could be nudged slightly to the east...but this'll do for me right now!!

Good point. Found the external link easier to use, bigger view as well although the zoom is disabled using the external link for some reason:

Excellent!

Much better than the beeb website one

Looks like they are only showing in IE9. Probably not supposed to be, best not shout about it.....

Edit: can see fence going up on left edge over the last few hours

Yep it may be something not to mention..................Shhhhhhhhhhhhh

Edit But Im not seeing it in IE either???

What browser are you using? That could have something to do with it.

Looks like they are still playing about with it. They have taken away some of the options and tools from earlier today already. Maybe when traffic increases features get reduce to save on bandwidth

[LondonTom]

YAY!

I like the clear picture of the TOR but agree we could do with West Holts in frame to!

Shame they seem to be planning to turn off the time lapse options, it must be recording them so may as well make it avaliable!

[Stretlow]

Really good but I agree with an earlier comment, it's pointed too high, too much sky not enough green imo.

That is so impressive still though!

[Bubblecup]

Sad too see that Cool Truck has gone. It was so cool.

[LondonTom]

Poorer picture at night mind! Needs some sort of low light filter I think The old cam had a better faint image of the Pyramid etc. (Though this might be better when all the festival lights are turned on I guess)

[JayBalls]

Can see the fence coming round on the far right now

[Bisque]

Is the ribbon tower a permanent fixture all year round?

[JayBalls]

Is the ribbon tower a permanent fixture all year round?

No, starts being put up start of May

[Bisque]

No, starts being put up start of May

Hence why it was there in when the cam initially went live briefly...

Thanks

[kalifire]

Is that the first signs (on cam) of the fence, in the very far left of the shot?

[ThomThomDrum]

Other Stage field and Dance Village getting a grass trimming by the looks of things..............

[JayBalls]

Is that the first signs (on cam) of the fence, in the very far left of the shot?

And far right too!
