Kasabian's Serge admits he has 'no recollection' of headlining Glastonbury

What did you miss?

Kasabian's frontman Serge Pizzorno has admitted he has "no recollection" of headlining Glastonbury, adding that his main hope for the band's new album is that "no one dies".

The band headlined Glastonbury 10 years ago and have been rumoured to be making a return to the festival this weekend, but refused to give anything away in a hilariously awkward interview with The One Show.

What, how, and why?

The One Show hosts Alex Jones and Roman Kemp were left speechless by some very unexpected answers from Kasabian frontman Serge Pizzorno when they interviewed him at the end of Friday's show.

Kemp opened the interview with the question on every Kasabian fan's lips - whether rumours of a secret set at Glastonbury this weekend were true.

He asked: "It's been 10 years since you headlined Glastonbury. But I hear rumours of a return, maybe?"

There was an awkwardly long pause, before Pizzorno replied: "Erm, the wellies are always packed. They're by the door waiting to go, so you never know."

Jones then tried to move things along by asking: "What are your memories of playing -" as Pizzorno interrupted: "Glastonbury? I have no recollection."

The show's other guests Paul Whitehouse and Gabby Logan were left in hysterics, but Pizzorno continued: "The levels we reached that night were just insane. It was such an honour, it was 10 years from being first on to working our way up to headlining."

Jones may have thought she was on safer ground asking about the band's new album and whether it could be a seventh number one.

Pizzorno replied: "Who knows? I just hope no one dies, that's always the worst thing. Someone could die and then you're just finished."

"Well...that's very dark," said a stunned Jones.

Serge also spoke about an upcoming gig in their hometown of Leicester: "The great thing is, last time we did it they continue to sing through the night. If England won the World Cup, that's what it was like. People were jumping in the fountains, it was 4am, everyone just going wild."

Kemp commented: "Well, good luck to the people of Leicester."

What else happened on The One Show?

Gabby Logan was also a guest on The One Show, where she spoke about commentating at the aris Olympics this summer.

She said: "I pinch myself when I get that phonecall saying will you be part of our team (on the BBC) because it is just the best job to do."

Logan also commented on Fred Sirieix being signed up as a BBC commentator and his daughter competing in the diving, saying: "I'm sure he's doing more than just diving."

The sports presenter revealed the surprising Olympic event she is most looking forward to this summer - breakdancing.

She said: "I think come August we will all become breakdancing experts. What I love most about breakdancing is they have a period of three minutes where they don't know what the music's going to be and they dance off against each other.

"It's like a little battle going on on the dancefloor which I love the idea of."

The One Show airs on BBC One at 7pm on weekdays.
