Tickets for this year's Glastonbury Festival have sold out in only three hours.

Organiser Michael Eavis' new arrangements for ticket sales worked more efficiently this year, unlike last year when the telephone exchange went into meltdown due to the volume of calls.

All 112,000 tickets have sold out, but lucky ticket-holders are rumoured to be able to expect performances from the likes of The White Stripes, Coldplay, New Order and Kylie.
