English band Wolf Alice have finally touched down in the UK ahead of their Glastonbury set, after a cancelled flight left them stranded in the US.

The band took to Twitter for help after their flight from Los Angeles to London was cancelled. The band posted: "has anyone got a private jet in LA?", minutes before explaining: "Our flights been cancelled and we need to get to Glastonbury, not joking."
