It's fair to say most fans are pretty happy these rockers are performing at Worthy Farm later this year, and it's a thumbs up for how they went about telling everyone with a secret gig at the Cheese and Grain in Frome.

A few minutes ago, the Foo Fighters announced they would indeed be the headline act at Glastonbury Festival this year - although there seems to be a little confusion as to whether they'll be taking to the Pyramid Stage on the Saturday or the Sunday night.

Michael Eavis said "Saturday 25th June", but the 25th is a Sunday, not a Saturday...so the speculation continues.

Jordan Walters left 18-month-old Harry Studley with lifelong injuries when he fired at him last July.

During sentencing, Judge Julian Lambert said: "Only the resolution of Harry in his fight for life and the brilliance of the surgical team saved him. 

"But for your grossly irresponsible behaviour, Harry Studley would today be a bouncing little boy with unlimited expectations ahead of him in life." 

The judge also said Harry is showing symptoms of epilepsy and has badly impaired vision "and will so suffer for life".

An estate agents has been fined £200,000 after a house hunter fell down a 30ft foot well in a garden of a property she was being shown around. 

She suffered head injuries and still has post-traumatic stress disorder after the fall in Malmesbury, Wiltshire, in April last year. 

Swindon Magistrates heard how the woman had stepped onto a wooden board which gave way and she was trapped down the well, submerged in water, for an hour.

An investigation by the Health and Safety Executive found Strakers in Devizes had been warned about the well and the board didn't look safe. 

Strakers admitted breaching Health and Safety laws.

It's the worst kept secret ever - the Foo Fighters, who are one of the most popular rock bands in the world, have been rumoured to be playing here at the Cheese and Grain in Frome for a couple of days.

But if it was a secret, it's not anymore because one of the band's guitarists, Pat Smear - even I remember him from his days with Nirvana - was here signing autographs for about 50 people. There's great excitement among the small crowd as you might imagine.

It's long been rumoured they may also be playing Glastonbury this year. They were meant to be heading there a few years ago but the lead singer broke his leg and they've been trying to rearrange ever since.

We think, and a lot of people think, they're using this is a PR stunt to announce to the world they will be headlining the festival.
