A video of Ed Sheeran performing in a school production in Framlingham, Suffolk is to go under the hammer.

It shows a 15-year-old Ed at Thomas Mills High School, when he played T-Bird Putzie or Rump in Grease in 2006. It features him singing, playing the guitar, dancing and acting with an American accent.

On two DVDs, it runs for over 2 hours.

It'll be auctioned off by Omega Auctions on 29 June when it's expected to bring around £3000-£5000.

Auctioneer Paul Fairweather said: “Over the last year or so we’ve seen an exponential increase in interest for memorabilia and collectables relating to contemporary artists, especially Ed Sheeran.

“We sold a rare early CD title for £50,000 in September of last year and since then the enquiries and consignments have been non-stop.

“The footage is a great watch and we think it definitely gives a hint as to Ed’s star potential.”
