Beck plays on the main stage at Glasgow Green at 5.50pm on Friday 25 August.

Yet, he is still inside having embarked upon a campaign of awkwardness, disruption and non-co-operation, all the while impersonating a 19th century bare-knuckled boxer. For some reason, Britain’s Most Dangerous Prisoner (Channel 4, Thu 31 Aug, 9pm) doesn't explain how he's still managed to make all those Deathwish films.
