Since reuniting in 2022, every Glasto secret set has been greeted with hushed whispers and fervent hopes that Jarvis and co would finally be making their return to the farm. 2022 - no Pulp, 2023 - no Pulp, 2024? Nope, still not there. As you may have guessed from this preamble (and the giant PULP headline which is presumably hovering a few centimetres above this sentence), 2025 was the year that everyone’s prayers were finally answered. Fictional band Patchwork turn out to instead be a very real group of britpop legends. And 30 years after their legendary Stone-Roses-replacement headliner slot, too.
