All the drama seemed to be happening down in Chelmsford, what with Amy Winehouse cameo-ing with the Specials and a last-minute cancellation from headliners Oasis. There weren’t as many surprises at Stafford’s Weston Park site, the days running as smoothly as you would expect from such a slick, pop-polished juggernaut. I’d set my hopes low this year, my motive being to have a fun weekend with friends rather than catching hot musical talents such as Alesha Dixon, the Saturdays and N-Dubz (oh my!). Guess what? It’s probably the best V I’ve been to.
