There are several types of people you expect to see at Glastonbury Festival, from that one bloke in a neon vest splattered in mud that peaked too early, to the out-of-place pop fan covered in glitter holding up an 'I love Olly Murs' sign.
But in recent years, it's becoming more and more common to see all sorts – from middle-class foodies and intolerable Instagram stars wearing OTT flower garlands, to posh kids claiming to be shamans who just want you to "chill". And now it seems you can add aliens and embarrassing out-of-place dads to that list as well...
Because in the best news of Glastonbury Festival 2017 so far – Brian from My Parents Are Aliens has been spotted idly wandering around.
Taking to Twitter, one festival goer tweeted a picture of the CITV star, captioning it: "Only at Glastonbury..."
And it's not the first time that Tony Gardner, who played Mr Johnson in the hit after-school show, has attended the festival in Somerset – last year, he reunited with his on-screen son Josh Barker (Alex Kew) at Glastonbury.

What to Read Next
In case you were living on another planet back in the noughties, My Parents Are Aliens was a children's TV show (often watched while eating a Cheestring or your bodyweight in TuckShop) about three orphaned children whose foster parents were, well, aliens – and they had to keep it secret from their friends.
Since MPAA, Gardner has appeared in a whole host of TV shows, most notably as suave Opposition Leader Dan Miller in The Thick of It and charming lecturer Tony Shales in Fresh Meat. Quite the opposite of bumbling Brian.
He is also a regular as Sarah Lancashire's adulterous husband John in Last Tango in Halifax, and played Lieutenant Colonel Philip Smith in BBC Three comedy Bluestone 42.
Most recently, the 53-year-old actor appeared as Douglas in the Doctor Who episode 'The Pyramid at the End of the World'.
