Fans convinced Richard Hammond made Glastonbury debut – but it was Alex Turner
After the Arctic Monkeys delivered one of Glastonbury's divisive performances this weekend, attention soon shifted to the band's frontman, Alex Turner. Some social media users were quick to praise the nostalgic set, with classics including 'Mardy Bum' and 'Fluorescent Adolescent' going down a treat. Others, however, branded it "slow, lazy and offbeat." It wasn't just the music that drew attention from viewers at home. It was Turner's striking resemblance to Top Gear's Richard Hammond. And now people cannot unsee it. Fans immediately turned to social media to share their unexpected observation. "It is near impossible for Alex Turner to look any more like Richard Hammond than he already does hahaha," one person wrote, while another brutal viewer added: "Alex Turner tonight - when your order Richard Hammond on Wish." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter "Twitter makes me howl! So far people have said Alex Turner looks like: a poor man’s Nick Cave, Roy Orbinson, Engelbert Humperdinck, Vic Reeves and Richard Hammond," another joked. "Alex Turner looking like Richard Hammond was the first thing I thought when I saw him," one Twitter user wrote, as another chimed in: "Is it just me or is Alex Turner really starting to look like Richard Hammond?" Ahead of Glastonbury, fans were worried that the band might pull out due to concerns over Turner's health. The band cancelled their Dublin gig after the singer came down with laryngitis, an illness where vocal cords become irritated and can affect the voice box. "We are extremely sorry to announce the cancellation of Arctic Monkeys’ show at Marlay Park in Dublin tomorrow," they shared on social media earlier on this week. Have your say in our news democracy.

Train accidentally takes EU politicians to Disneyland because of signalling error
A train heading to Strasburg carrying hundreds of members and staff of the European Parliament ended up at Disneyland Paris on Monday after taking the wrong turn. The special train - which costs £90million a year to run - is chartered once a month to get European officials between parliaments in Brussels and Strasbourg. However, a signalling error on Monday meant that MEPs briefly ended up with a view of Disney princesses and animated attractions. After departing from Brussels, the train left Charles de Gaulle Airport and headed towards Disneyland because of the error. Officials on the train were told that the diversion was due to an “error in the route” and were quick to make light of their predicament on social media. German MEP, Daniel Freund joked on X: “We are NOT a Mickey Mouse Parliament.” Another Dutch lawmaker, Samira Rafaela, wrote “Team Disneyland”, in a photo posted on social media. Unfortunately, the stopover at Disneyland was not long enough for the MEPs to enjoy themselves at the theme park, as the delay was only 45 minutes. SNCF Networks, the railway company who charter the train, said the cause was a signalling error at the Roissy Charles-de-Gaulle TGV station. It apologised for the inconvenience, noting that the diversion caused only a 45-minute delay. “The passengers arrived at their destination at 12.50pm,” it told AFP news. It was eventually put back on to the correct track for Strasbourg.
