EAGLE-eyed Glastonbury Festival ticket holders were quick to point out an unusual name high-up on the timings list for the Pyramid Stage.
The Churnups have been allocated a slot on the main stage at 6.15pm on the Friday of the festival.
But do a quick search on Spotify or Google for 'The Churnups' and you will see they don't exist. Not as a band anyway.
But Glastonbury goers have circled rumours online that this could very well be the legendary band Pulp.

When something is churned it becomes Pulp 😉 #Glastonbury #Glasto
Of course, if you churn things up, you get Pulp.
The rumours seem to have merit, as when you look at the full line-up and timings for the festival, The Churnups seems out of place.
It has been more than a decade since the band performed at Worthy Farm, having previously done a secret set on the Park Stage in 2011.
And they are no strangers to Glastonbury Festival having headlined 1995 and performed several times throughout the 1990s.
What do you think? Is Pulp making a return?
Elsewhere, The Amazons appear to have self confirmed they will be performing a secret set at the festival.

And Blur, Mumford and Sons and DMAs have also seen their names circling the rumour mill.
