Geoff Ellis, festival director, described this year's T in the Park as the "best ever" with performances so far from Beyonce, Coldplay, Sir Tom Jones and Arctic Monkeys.

He also praised the crowds of up to 85,000 each day for the "self-policing" in keeping crime to a low.

He said: "It's been absolutely fantastic, it's been my favourite T to date. The performances have been out of this world. Beyonce was fabulous, (as were) Coldplay, The Script, Swedish House Mafia and Slash.

"Beyonce fitted into the event like a hand in a glove, really. She came, got on with her job. She was totally professional and very relaxed and the audience loved what she did. I think it's been the best one we've had so far. It's the best one in 18 years. For some people reaching 18 is a coming of age and T in the Park seems to be going from strength to strength."
