It's been difficult to find over the last few years but is now streaming on Amazon Prime.

Excellent! Is it HD? I watch my DVD every year but it's not the best quality

I've had it saved on my Q box for a couple of years, I used to have a DVD box set but no longer have a DVD player, they are redundant these days. A must watch but I'll wait for week before to get the juices flowing. The current weather has got the festival vibes going on and especially when you've got one of the golden tickets!2

Is there anywhere to view the other content, dvd extras, online? Used to have the dvd and I'm sure I spotted myself in some of the additional content. But don't have a DVD player anymore 😔

Nice one.  It's a great watch.

 

Starting to show its age a wee bit now though.  Would love to see a sequel or some sort of other update.

Even that’s 14 years old now!

[CaledonianGonzo]

Yeah - plus its got an intentionally narrow focus.

 

But on the plus side our team can be glimpsed in it - and my sister in law features prominently at one point.

Get down to radio rentals and get yourself a player, then you can rent the dvd 😉

I've got the DVD but dont remember the extras being anything to fuss over.  Maybe some unedited performance clips?

I've got a vague idea that this might have just been the initial release, and was abandoned for later pressings, as not all DVD players supported it properly - but my copy of the DVD did something called "branching".

 

So basically when a song was coming up, you'd get some text on screen saying "Up Next: Whatever by Whoever" and be given the option to press a button to substitute it for something else which would then insert itself into the film. From what I remember, there was like 5 or 6 points in the film you could do this, each with a choice of 3 songs - the default, and two others. For the time it worked fairly well, although would properly appear clunky now.

 

Admittedly it must be 15-20 years since I last saw it in action so I might not have the specifics correct, but I'm sure I didn't imagine the concept.

That does ring a bell.  I think my copy may do that too.

Turns out they list them here...

I have a copy, and a DVD player - it's not wired up to my TV.

[Pipine]

Why have they never released Live At Worthy Farm? That was so good..

It’s a must-watch, but I’ll wait until the week before to really get into the spirit. With the current weather bringing those festival vibes—and having one of the golden tickets—it’s all starting to feel real!

Still got a dvd player and the dvd, watch it often. Also have all the bbc Glastonbury coverage from the last two years including archive of past festivals stored on the sky a box. Hardly a day goes by when I don’t watch some of it!
What I hated  was losing the old sky plus box I had for years.it had so much Glasto on it but it couldn’t be transferred.

That’s hideous that scene

Worse even than the Rolf Harris scenes
