Worth pointing out just how large the slot is at 1 hr 15 minutes - bigger than Royal Blood, Lizzo & Lil Nas X all of whom are subbing.

On that alone I doubt it's Wet Leg - they only have one album worth of material and that album is just over 30 minutes long.

Can we read anything into the fact that on the efestivals line up and rumour page, Pulp are still down as a STRONG RUMOUR but Foo Fighters aren’t even mentioned?

Case closed. Neil knows!

I know this probably isn't a factor in the decision-making behind this slot but I do find it laughable that they'd bend over backwards to convince everyone Lizzo is a co-headliner to assuage complaints about gender equality, yet only give her an hour, and then give a longer Pyramid set to an all-male/male-dominated band playing third down on a different day. 

Maybe female acts aren't the 'secret' type but I do find it funny that all the common suggestions for a secret slot (Pulp, Foos, Blur, Hozier, Mumford, 1975) are mostly if not entirely male. Who's the most likely non-male act to turn up unannounced? Florence?

But why surround Florence with all the intrigue?
