Welcome to our annual trip to the Glastonbury Festival. Or should that be, in true rock gig style, "Hello, Great Britain! How yer doing?"

In this week's Radio Times magazine, we catch up with he man who's performing in the Legends slot: step forward Sir Roderick Stewart, who's still rocking at 80. Not only that, he talks about how he still likes a drink and can run 100 metres in 19 seconds! On his own private track, naturally.

It's a great interview with the lad from Archway, north London, who used to deliver Radio Times on his paper round and then went on to become a rock god (surely there's got to be a connection of some sort?).

I have already got my favourite chair set up for Sir Rod's set, which he promises will be special. There may even be bagpipes... I sincerely hope so.

We also talk to two more Glastonbury stars – Sam Ryder and Self Esteem (Rebecca Lucy Taylor to her friends), who says if Rod asked her to join him on stage to sing with him she'd be there like a shot.

And don't miss our armchair Glastonbury guide in this week's issue. Thank you and goodnight.
