Wasn't this her gran who died that morning? Remember watching it, I think Lily was in tears or on the edge of them.

Yep, Nanny Allen had sadly passed away the night before.

Your go!

The Park's secret slots have become part of the Glastonbury fabric since the late 2000s. Three musicians have appeared twice during a secret Park set over the years. Who are they?

Damon Albarn

Thom Yorke

Fatboy Slim

One out of three!

Damn, the other two were educated guesses. I know they've both played secret sets at least once.

[anditmakesmesmile]

Jarvis Cocker

Alex Turner

[kingcrawler]

Jonny Greenwood is one, no idea for the third though.

The third one in mind is - shock horror - not a remaining 'Head.

It is a frontman, but none of the aforementioned.

With a link to Thom?

[priest17]

Jack White.

(Someone else can ask a question if in right ahah)

What former headliner did Fatboy Slim play a record of when he guested as part of Africa Express?

Edit: bonus points for which song

I cheated but still not sure I’m right, was it Zombie by the Cranberries? 
 

I found a set list and that was the song named, but couldn’t find a record of the Cranberries headlining any stage. 

🤷‍♂️

It's not - unless they headlined and I didn't know about it.  Think of acts that fit into the genre that Fatboy plays and have a song  that fits the theme of the collective playing.  

If that's too obscure, I'll give more obvious clues later.

Paul Simon?

If that's right I'll try to name the song

No and no.

Hint: Fatboy Slim is a dance music DJ 

Edit: Paul Simon has never headlined the festival.

As often is the case in these quizzes, it seems really easy to me - in my head I thought someone would work it out in 5 minutes flat.  

[dondo]

Basement Jaxx?

 

[Crazyfool01]

Chemical brothers

I love the way my brain works - my first thought was whether S'Express had ever headlined
