Which acts are rumoured to be surprise guests?

Just one has being confirmed so far: Brit Awards Best Female Solo Artist nominee, Lianne La Havas took to the Avalon stage on Friday June 23.

But who else will join her? Here's some names that keep popping up but maybe it's just wishful thinking...

Oasis

Harry Styles

Stevie Nicks

Carole King

The Maccabees

Daft Punk

Why does the BBC not show certain artists or songs at Glastonbury?

BBC will be recording across six of the main stages (Pyramid, Other, John Peel, Park, West Holts and BBC Introducing) but not every performance from the festival will be aired.

this is for a number of reasons. Firstly they "cannot always afford to record all performances from every stage or from multiple sites."

Some acts or artists may request to not be filmed or have their entire set live - eg if it is new or unreleased material or due to the quality of certain parts of the performance.

The content of the song or artist may not comply with the BBC Taste & Decency guidelines, for example - if the track includes swearing.

And sometimes outdoor conditions may affect the quality of recording, although the BBC said: "we endeavour to provide at least a sample of a band's show if we feel they are central to the festival."

And finally there simply just aren't enough broadcast slots to air all performances.

The BBC said: "TV and Radio producers select the performances that reflect the festival best and appeal to the different audiences for networks and channels."

Thankfully more material is available via the Red Button and online.
