That would be the most disappointing set of secret sets imaginable but its actually realistic (bar Lewis Capaldi on introducing) 

Yeah it's pretty uninteresting, but unfortunately thats the way the mainstream music world is at the moment. I definitely agree that Lewis Capaldi is way to popular to put on the Introducing Stage, the only reason he is on there is because he did a secret set at Glastonbury on the introducing stage.

Could we see The Streets as the "medium" sized secret set and a return to main stage or R1 headliners in 2020?

Mike Skinner said the 1st should arrive "hopefully by the end of summer "

Honestly think this has legs now they're promoting new albums 

[Tom Connolly]

so realistically we’re looking at now:

R1: The Streets/Biffy/Catfish

The Pit: Creeper/IDLES

Introducing: Lewis Capaldi/Sam Fender

Introducing: Sundara Karma/Pale Waves/Blossoms

Is it normal to have a secret set on the introducing stage that isn't on the full lineup?

[Jericode]

Literally all of that is guesswork, I wouldn't throw the word 'realistically' on it.

There was Peace last year but I can't remember it happening before that

[bigcharlie65]

Its gotta be The Streets no doubt there at bloody BoomTown just a few days before not much of a travel

[Jericode]

We're gonna have a few disappointed Streets fans in a month aren't we.

one of the biggest Streets fans you’re gonna get right here, can’t be disappointed if you don’t feed in to the overly-wishful thinking lmao.

its a nice idea but I can’t see it. Would happily be wrong though.

[jamieaslee]

Yeah it's 100% wishful thinking and a bit of a reach, but you never know now they're promoting albums and Mike Skinner's film

Just to throw it out there as people seem to be predicting him a lot; Lewis Capaldi is playing Victorious festival on the same weekend as R+L, which would suggest he won’t be a secret set.

As far as I can tell no one has mentioned that they added a band to the BBC Radio 1 stage, without announcing them at all, not even mentioning they’re being added. They're called Mantra, and while they did secret set last year, I wouldn’t be surprised if BMTH did it again

They're a legitimate band and were added weeks ago. The secret set will likely fall on the Friday.

Ah shit my bad. Just gotten so lazy I can’t be bothered to fact check, and when they weren’t tagged or really announced, I just assumed. Just a coincidence

[mttJ]

Surprised we don't have a strong idea (other than maybe Biffy) who it is yet though, swear it's usually pretty clear by this stage.

Haven’t seen anyone suggest Halsey on here. Yungblud is playing on Sunday so wouldn’t be surprised if she tagged along and did a set. Pretty high profile, unexpected and unpredictable . As far as I can tell she isn’t playing anywhere that weekend either, but may be wrong

Read something on snapchat (not the best news source I know) but it was about how Alex from glasto is going to do music properly or some shit but apparently Leeds tried to get him for this year - guessing Reading too i assume he just lives near Leeds.

Seconds thoughts actually maybe he will do something on the 1xtra stage and then come back later on with Dave for his R1 headline set on Friday?

[Alex Winstone]

Skepta? He did pull out last year 

[Andre91]

Any news on the Creeper front?
