Review: Back to the Future: The Musical - Time well spent or a waste of time?

Glastonbury news: Why I won’t be watching The 1975’s Headline act at Worthy Farm

Ah March. The sun starts shining, the evenings are longer - and you find out who is headlining Glastonbury.

All is good with the world (apart from the whole Trump-Putin-Zelensky stuff), and then you find out The 1975 are headlining Friday night.

Matty Healy and his gang will headline for the first time at Worthy Farm - but I’m afraid I won’t be tuning in, as this band are firmly in my ‘just don’t get it’ camp.
