Glastonbury on Saturday, as it happened: The Killers bring out Pet Shop Boys and Johnny Marr for guest appearances

The Killers turned their headline set at Glastonbury 2019 into something of a karaoke session on the Saturday night (29 June), with guest appearances from the Pet Shop Boys and Johnny Marr.

The Las Vegas rock band raced through a string of hits including “The Man”, “Somebody Told Me” and “Mr Brightside”.

This was the second time The Killers have headlined Glastonbury, following a disastrous appearance in 2007.

This attempt seemed to be met with a much better reception, and frontman Brandon Flowers looked ecstatic as he bounded off the stage following a rousing rendition of “Mr Brightside” for their final song.

Across the fourth day of the music festival, fans also experienced sets from Janet Jackson, Johnny Marr, Maggie Rogers, Lewis Capaldi, Liam Gallagher, Sean Paul, Lizzo, Hozier, Slowthai and Hot Chip.

This was on another day where the sun blazed down on Worthy Farm amid reports of a water shortage, which Glastonbury organisers denied – although our team on the ground confirmed there were queues of up to an hour for water refills.

My BBC stream just switched randomly to Sean Paul on the John Peel stage and I almost didn't come back.

Everytime I hear this song I just think of a skit the comedian Bill Bailey did where he changed the lyrics to I GOT HAM BUT I'M NOT A HAMSTER to point out how silly they were.

"Mr Brightside" has been trending for about an hour because people want it played now. Oh my god, guys, CALM DOWN.

That was Jimmy Carr on soundcheck just then, FYI

IT'S THE PET SHOP BOYS

This is more like it. Until now The Killers had been feeling very one-note compared to Stormzy's set last night.

Oh man, now Johnny Marr!!

OK, so amazing as this is, it has descended into kind of a karaoke set? And if you have to rely on guest appearances to liven up your headline set at Glastonbury...

Right, I'm heading off for the night, but keep an eye out for Jazz Monroe's review of The Killers (on its way) and more coverage on the final day of Glastonbury tomorrow, with headliners The Cure set to take to the Pyramid Stage for what will undoubtedly be a life-affirming show. Good night for now!
