Jarvis Cocker has dashed any hopes of a Pulp reunion by insisting the band won't reform for next year's Glastonbury festival.

Recent comments made by the singer in an interview suggested that Cocker was keen on a reunion, but he told Channel 4's Teletext: "I can categorically tell Teletext that Pulp have no plans to get back together.

"Someone asked me if I fancied playing at the 40th anniversary of Glastonbury I said yes, they twisted that into a 'Pulp reform' story. It's not true."
