Glastonbury: Coldplay joined by Michael J Fox on stage for history-making fifth headline set
Coldplay have become the first act in history to headline Glastonbury five times – playing a record-breaking set to a huge, sparkling audience for whom it felt like coming home. Thousands in the crowd will no doubt have seen them at least once here before, but no matter - they have their detractors, but you cannot argue with the fact Chris Martin's band can put on a headline performance worthy of Worthy Farm. Glastonbury founder Michael Eavis was among the special guests watching stage-side as they performed to a crowd stretching way back into the night, and they were also joined by stars and musicians including rapper Little Simz on stage.
