“International Achievement? That’s worryingly like one of those ‘you’re on your way to retirement prizes’”. After two previous wins when they were unable to attend. Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood along with brother Colin and Phil Selway are at the Ivors. “It’s good that the Ivor’s recognise writing” adds Jonny. “That’s were it all starts, experimenting, making mistakes, breathing new life into what we do. Sorry, it’s very dull interviewing us at the moment. We really have nothing new to say as we’re on holiday”.

Having picked up an International Achievement award, Phil Selway was asked about Radiohead’s future: “It’s not very rock and roll, but we all have families, so we’ll be with them until at least the end of summer. We need to press the reset button on everything before we work out what to do next. We’ve no new songs, not one.”

There’s been talk that Radiohead’s next release would be a series of EP’s rather than an album is that something that the dapper Phil can confirm?

“Sorry” he chuckles. “Again, we simply don’t know. We could do the EP’s, we may do an album, it could be a regular release, it might be just via the web. After a year in tour, we need to not think about the band for a couple of months.”

Ok. Any plan to run another Marathon?

“That I can say. NO!”
