Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis says he would like to see a total ban on the use of Chinese lanterns.

The head of the Somerset festival has joined forces with Devon and Somerset fire and rescue service to urge people not to use them.

The sky lanterns have been banned from Glastonbury for several years - but many campers still bring them.

Farmers say they're worried of the risk of fire to dry crops - and the risk to cattle who can die from eating the broken down shards of the lantern.
