Have your mates trundled off to Glastonbury armed with crates of beer and flower garlands, leaving you behind on the sofa? If you're suffering from a serious bout of FOMO this weekend, the good news is that highlights from the festival will be airing on TV and radio so you won't be entirely cut off from the Worthy Farm revelries.

More than 80 hours of coverage will be at your fingertips thanks to the BBC so there's really no excuse not to know everything that went on during some of the biggest sets.

BBC Two will play host to the headliners while BBC Three will be covering all the other acts.

Next time the rain starts pouring down on your muddied pals you'll be sitting pretty with the tantalising range of options below to choose from. Of course you can also watch it all live on the BBC website, which is what we're doing right now (loving a bit of Mary J Blige).
