Cheese is the new rock 'n' roll - with video
It seems cheese really is the new rock 'n' roll.
The traditional cheese rolling event, based near Brockworth, features in The Maccabees' new video for their single Can You Give It.

CHAMP: Chris Anderson on cheese rolling day. Inset: The Maccabees. Top: Scenes from the video.
The Brighton band profile one of the event's celebrities, Chris Anderson, who celebrated his 5th victory at this years's wacky race at Cooper's Hill in May.
Chris said: "They were filming at the hill when I was practising one day and when I told them I'd won it four times in the past, they decided to make a bit of a story of it.
"They were originally just going to do a piece on the event until they met me.
"I had heard of the band before but hadn't heard their music until recently.
"When I listened to the single before I saw the video, I didn't like it. But listening to it with the video, I think they go well together."
