The look had a subtle retro feel, reminiscent of a Catherine Walker blazer dress worn by Princess Diana at Trooping the Colour in 1988.

'A problem of leadership': Culture secretary hits out at BBC over Glastonbury controversy
The culture secretary has claimed there is "a problem of leadership" at the BBC, as the controversy over Bob Vylan's Glastonbury performance deepens. Lisa Nandy criticised the corporation over its decision not to pull the livestream after the band's frontman shouted "death, death to the IDF" - referring to the Israel Defence Forces - on Saturday. A criminal investigation has been launched into the Glastonbury performances of both Bob Vylan and Kneecap after the police reviewed footage. Ms Nandy condemned the "appalling and unacceptable scenes" at Glastonbury and said the government would not tolerate antisemitism. She said she had called BBC director-general Tim Davie after the broadcast of Bob Vylan's set to find out why it had aired, and why the feed had not been cut. "I expect answers to these questions without delay," she said. Later, when asked in the Commons about the BBC's editorial processes and who would be held accountable, Ms Nandy replied: "When you have one editorial failure, it's something that must be gripped. When you have several, it becomes a problem of leadership." Ms Nandy said she had spoken to members of the Jewish community, including attendees at Glastonbury, who said they were concerned by imagery and slogans and ended up creating their own "safe space". Mr Davie has been facing calls for his resignation. Yesterday, drummer Bobbie Vylan released a video statement on Instagram - saying politicians who have spent time criticising the band should be "utterly ashamed" for giving "room" to this over other issues. The punk rap duo have had their US visas revoked and been dropped by their US representative, United Talent Agency. He also addressed what was said on stage, saying: "Regardless of how it was said, calling for an end to the slaughter of innocents is never wrong. To civilians of Israel, understand this anger is not directed at you, and don't let your government persuade you that a call against an army is a call against the people." Shortly after it was posted, the video was no longer available to view. Israel denies targeting civilians in its war in Gaza. During Kneecap's set, one member suggested on stage starting a "riot" outside his bandmate's forthcoming court appearance, before clarifying he meant "support". In a statement, Avon and Somerset Police said that after reviewing footage of the performances of Kneecap and Bob Vylan, further enquiries are required and a criminal investigation is now being undertaken. "A senior detective has been appointed to lead this investigation," a spokesperson said. "This has been recorded as a public order incident at this time while our enquiries are at an early stage." The force said the investigation will be "evidence-led and will closely consider all appropriate legislation, including relating to hate crimes". "We have received a large amount of contact in relation to these events from people across the world and recognise the strength of public feeling," it added. "There is absolutely no place in society for hate." What happened? During Bob Vylan's set, the duo performed in front of a screen that showed several messages, including one that said Israel's actions in Gaza amount to "genocide". Bobby Vylan also led chants of "death to the IDF". The set was live streamed by the BBC as part of its Glastonbury coverage, but has not been made available on demand. Politicians including the prime minister have criticised the performance. Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis said the chants "crossed a line" and that there was no place at the festival for "antisemitism, hate speech or incitement to violence". A BBC spokesperson said the broadcaster respected freedom of expression "but stands firmly against incitement to violence". They added: "The antisemitic sentiments expressed by Bob Vylan were utterly unacceptable and have no place on our airwaves... "The team were dealing with a live situation, but with hindsight we should have pulled the stream during the performance. We regret this did not happen." 2:32 Media watchdog Ofcom said it was in talks with the BBC and that the broadcaster "clearly has questions to answer" over the stream. Irish-language rap trio Kneecap were on stage afterwards. Before their appearance at the festival, there had been calls for Glastonbury to remove them from the bill - as rapper Liam Og O hAnnaidh (who performs as Mo Chara) is facing a terror charge, accused of displaying a flag in support of the proscribed group Hezbollah at a gig in London last November. Glastonbury organisers kept them on the line-up, but the BBC chose not to stream their set live. An edited version was later made available on demand. On stage, the band led chants of "f*** Keir Starmer". O hAnnaidh's bandmate Naoise O Caireallain (Moglai Bap) said they would "start a riot outside the courts" for O hAnnaidh's next appearance, before clarifying: "No riots, just love and support, and support for Palestine." Hundreds of people turned out in protest for his first court appearance earlier this month. Bob Vylan were set to perform in Chicago, Brooklyn and Philadelphia in the autumn. They are due to perform at Radar Festival in Manchester on Saturday and Boardmasters, a surfing and music festival in Newquay, Cornwall, in August. Sharing a statement on Instagram after the Glastonbury set, Bobby Vylan said: "Teaching our children to speak up for the change they want and need is the only way that we make this world a better place. "As we grow older and our fire starts to possibly dim under the suffocation of adult life and all its responsibilities, it is incredibly important that we encourage and inspire future generations to pick up the torch that was passed to us." The war in Gaza started after Hamas militants launched attacks in Israel on 7 October 2023, killing 1,200 people and taking roughly 250 hostages. More than 860 Israeli soldiers have been killed since the war began, more than 400 of them during the fighting in Gaza. Israel's offensive in Gaza has devastated the enclave and killed around 56,500 people, according to the Hamas-run health ministry, which does not differentiate between civilians and combatants, but says more than half of the dead are women and children.

Lorde pictured with her new man at a London airport after they debut their relationship at Glastonbury - as his ex takes a savage swipe at couple
Lorde has been pictured with her new man, Jim E-Stack, 33, after going public with their relationship at Glastonbury over the weekend. The New Zealand singer wowed fans with a surprise set at the iconic music festival on Friday. Following the bravura performance, the Royals hitmaker, 28, was seen arriving at the London Heliport in Battersea. And her rumoured beau was in tow, placing his hand on the pop star's shoulder as the pair walked to a waiting car. Lorde went casual for the trip, wearing a light grey T-shirt with a breast pocket. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. She also wore a pair of loose-fitting black jeans that were cinched with a narrow, black leather belt. She had her raven locks down, leaving her long tresses to fall freely over her svelte shoulders. The pop star finished her look with a pair of translucent-framed sunglasses. Jim, who produced Lorde's latest album Virgin, also cut quite the casual figure for the flight. He wore a pair of light blue jeans with a white T-shirt with 'Wisconsin' emblazoned across the front. The producer and DJ, who has also worked with the likes of Haim, Bon Iver and Empress Of, also wore a distressed bone-coloured cap as well as a pair of Asics joggers. As she disembarked the helicopter, Lorde was also spotted cuddling up to another pal as the duo made their way off the tarmac. Lorde was seen packing on the PDA with Jim as the new couple attended the iconic festival. She also wore a pair of loose-fitting black jeans that were cinched with a narrow, black leather belt Jim, who produced Lorde's latest album Virgin, also cut quite the casual figure for the flight According to The Sun, the Teams hitmaker was spotted 'getting close with the musician on stage' after playing the surprise Glastonbury set The pair were seen 'with their arms around each other while they watched The 1975' and went on 'partying until well after 4am'. MailOnline has contacted Lorde's representatives for a comment. The blossoming romance comes as Jim's ex-girlfriend Kacy Hill took a savage dig at him on her TikTok platform. The American singer, 31, revealed that her six and a half year relationship came to an end when he started working with Lorde on her single Man Of The Year. She penned: 'Let's hear it for the man who ended a six-and-a-half-year relationship while making a girl's album then started dating her.' A source told the The Sun: 'Lorde is really happy with Jim after they bonded making the album. 'But there was no overlap and she was very respectful.' She penned: 'Let's hear it for the man who ended a 6.5 year relationship while making a girl's album then started dating her' Lorde and Jim were previously linked in October 2024 when the pair were seen making a rare public outing in New York. At the time, Lorde hadn't been pictured with her music executive boyfriend Justin Warren since March 2023. The pair began fuelling rumours they are working on a new album together after Jim E-Stack shared a photo of Lorde to Instagram in August. The singer - who previously graced The Pyramid stage in 2022 - performed all of her biggest hits from Ribs to Green Light, as well as a rendition of her new album for her Glastonbury set.

‘Glastonbury's definitely still medieval!': The Libertines' Pete Doherty and Carl Barât interviewed at the festival
On the final day of Glastonbury, the Libertines are due on the Pyramid stage for an afternoon show. But first, their co-frontmen, Pete Doherty and Carl Barât, make a stop by the Astrolabe stage for the last of Guardian Live's in-conversations at this year's festival. 'They are the greatest British rock band of the last 25 years,' says Guardian critic and today's host, Miranda Sawyer. And Doherty and Barât are two of the most notorious hell-raisers in indie-rock. But this is a changed band, perhaps, who stop for a photograph with Mr Tumble before they walk onstage. They kick off the talk with fond memories of Glastonbury, a place that has long been 'part of the mythology of the band,' says Doherty. For him, it was running into his sister, AmyJo, having not seen her in three years. 'I heard this couple fighting in the mud.' But then he realised: 'I know that voice. It was AmyJo. She was having a full on barney with her boyfriend at the time. We had a massive, warm embrace and a little cry.' Barât's Glasto experience was emotional in a different way. 'It was a bit of a rite of passage when I was kid – to go over the fence. When I finally got through, the festival opened up before me and it was so exciting. I didn't have any money, so I got food in the Hare Krishna tent and I slept in a Christian Aid tent. I woke up at four in the morning and I heard this rattling – I was getting sprayed. There was some fella pissing on my blanket.' Sawyer notes the similarities between the spirit of Glastonbury and the thrust of the Libertines' songs about Albion and 'Merrie Old England'. The pair agree. 'It's definitely still medieval,' says Doherty, perhaps thinking of the Stone Circle at 6am. 'There's people with chicken powered bicycles and people who are living in the rhythms of the stars and the planet, or trying to make a stand in this time where it's probably more difficult than ever. Or trying to be in touch with the land or what's left of it.' An audience with Pete Doherty and Carl Barât answering reader's questions is what it must be like to be on their tour bus. Or a fly on the wall when they shared a flat together in Camden in the mid-2000s. Their wisecracking banter has a tendency to veer off into the surreal, or the profound, with the occasional lighthearted jibe. Sawyer asks about being in a lineage of songwriting partnerships with a push-pull tension, one they mined their relationship for their songs like Can't Stand Me Now. At one point, the pair even had security guards to protect them from each other. 'But we didn't really discuss it well,' says Doherty to his bandmate. 'You're always good for the arguments but less good at discussing and understanding the love affair.' Their last album, however, All Quiet on the Eastern Esplanade, was about a different relationship – with Margate in Kent. 'We were running a hotel,' says Barât. 'And we got so wrapped up in it. I woke up one day and realised I was like Basil Fawlty. I was so stressed all the time.' They've since turned it into a recording studio, where they made the album and give studio time to up-and-coming bands 'so they can afford to go and do demos. It's community building.' It's time for readers' questions, which range from the future of the music industry to – one for the heads – Doherty's favourite cheese. Asked what their favourite support act of the past 20-odd years has been, they chorus 'Chas and Dave', or the time they went on after a Guns N' Roses tribute act called Guns N' Noses. 'The guitarist was called Slosh,' laughs Barât. Another reader wanted to know if Doherty's opinion on Oasis had changed since he notoriously appeared on MTV in 1997, saying: 'I subscribe to the Umberto Eco view that Noel Gallagaher's a poet and Liam's a town crier.' 'Yeah, I think that still works in a way,' he replies. Next up, Doherty evangelises about his favourite episode of BBC radio comedy Hancock's Half Hour broadcast: 'The Poetry Society [episode] is my go-to. When we used to share a flat, I used to always put that one on for you,' he says to Barât. 'He fancied himself as a bit of a poet and he's in with all these bohemians that hang around.' That sounds familiar. But the musician is also up on contemporary culture. In response to a reader question about new books, he says: 'There's a novel called England Is Mine about a kid who gets turned to online extremism by a young English writer called Nicolas Padamsee. I ran into him at random yesterday; it's a beautiful first novel. It inspired me and made me want to get back to myself.' Sign up to Sleeve Notes Get music news, bold reviews and unexpected extras. Every genre, every era, every week after newsletter promotion Talk turns to nostalgia for the mid-2000s, when the Libertines swaggered on to the London scene with 2002 album Up the Bracket, produced by Mick Jones of the Clash, and combusted in a blaze of scandal and infamy. A reader asked: what is the one thing you would both change if you had a time machine and could travel back to the early 2000s? 'My first thought is to try and get involved in some historical events like, I don't know, contact the New York police on the morning of 9/11 or something,' says Doherty, fancying himself as a hero. 'That's not funny, is it? But something like that, I don't know. Or just place some bets on certain horses and cup finals, proper Back to the Future vibes. Nothing really in my own life, because I wouldn't want to tamper with the ….' He pauses. 'There's a few things, maybe. Yeah, so much.' 'No, I wouldn't change anything,' chimes Barât. 'Apart from averting catastrophes.' If the Libertines could have avoided implosion, would they have achieved global rock dominance? 'I mean, I don't think we know what to do with dominance,' says Barât. The talk concludes with what there is to look forward to about the Libertines' live show on the Pyramid. Do they have anything special up their sleeve for the afternoon Glastonbury crowd? 'We're gonna have the shipping forecast as the intro music, that's gonna be a lovely moment,' says Doherty. 'Other than that, it's the same old shit.'
