I’m a huge fan of Wimbledon, but change is needed.

The strawberries and cream, the action on Centre Court, the timeless elegance of the grass - there’s nothing quite like it. It’s the oldest tennis tournament in the world, steeped in tradition and history.

But it’s time we talked about the process of getting there in the first place: the queue.

Yes, the queue is just as much a Wimbledon tradition as the all-white dress code or the Royal Box. But not all traditions are worth keeping and this one has reached its sell-by date.

You arrive in the early hours of the morning - or worse, you camp........
