Video: Some bloke named Ed Sheeran was on Top Gear recently and he isn’t great at driving

Ed and The Stig are twins.

A young unknown singer by the name of Edward Sheeran was chosen to be the very first guest on the new series of Top Gear which returns to BBC2 this evening.

The show is in its 22nd season now, so it’s older than most of the singers fans then, and they asked the man who sold the most amount of albums in Ireland last year to show off his driving abilities.

Take a look at some of the footage as Ed struggles to live life in the fast lane. We’ll give the Thinking Out Loud singer the benefit of the doubt though because he actually doesn’t have a licence yet still manages to performs a lap in an automatic Vauxhall Astra.

It seems that Ed survived the ordeal though and was even happy to pose for some snaps because he’s the nicest fella in the world.
