Tis what it is. Also hearing people are being told to wait in Pink Car Park for the time being. 
 

And that gates aren’t opening until 9am but I don’t believe that 😂

Heard nothing about that. Were all just setting up here now on the other side for the processing. Some 80+ stewards turning up gradually for it all and position briefings.

 

We're working to 8am tho as usual they have to do the 'photo op' opening at gate A before all the others are cleared to open.

They must’ve just opened it up again. All that was empty 20 mins ago 👍

D is deffo open, but is out in car park 35. 

[Franky]

From what I can tell they are making the Gate D queue head up the field and queue around the edge of the top of the field before heading into the first snake. 
 

But then I’m very tired and could easily be wrong 😂😂

Ah yeah lol exactly as I was typing it 😂

[Franky]

They have told everyone to pack up their sh*t and start condensing the queue so you guys should move in the next 30 mins. 

[Pinhead]

Indeed and this is now allowing the car park queues to filter in a bit now

[WforWill]

They must’ve opened up a section in D, lots of moving in zig zag area but is now full. Queue is long!

[Franky]

If you’re in the first set of zig zag’s and they open at 8 you should be in by 9 👍

Depends on how you look at it lol that’s the set I was referring to. The first set of zig zag’s you come too. If you’re in that you should be through the 2nd set and in by 9am 👍

Also need to get the volunteers briefed and ready …. Gate A is pretty much the one that opens first normally with the press unless it’s 2010 all over again woo hoo 

[Crazyfool01]

Emily and Michael in position to open gate A ... live on BBC News 

[Worky_gla]

We open n moving now anyone know? Just in the queue to get to the carparks 

[gooner1990]

Just at Podimore services how’s the queue looking?

[CJL9494]

Apparently people still getting directed to A

[Aragorn]

People rocking straight in, re-entry about 5 mins max 

[Suprefan]

Was coming back in from Holt and they were escorting out a few gate crashers. 5 guys it seems. They got over the turnstiles of re entry but 3 were caught.
