16 Year-Old Ed Sheeran auditions for Britannia High (2007)

- Britannia High was a short-lived UK TV series (a scripted musical drama, like Glee and Fame) about a performing arts school. (It wasn't a real school!) Ed Sheeran was one of the young hopefuls who endured a grueling audition process in 2007 for the six lead roles. The casting team recognized his unique talent and appeal, but he wasn't cast. (You can see how much his dancing has improved by watching his video for Thinking Out Loud.) These are excerpts from a 44 min behind the scenes documentary.
Another favorite of mine, Matthew James Thomas, played Jez in the 9 Britannia High episodes and went on to star in Pippin on Broadway.
For Pixie Lott's moments and two extra clips of Ed missing here, see this video: • 16 Year Old Pixie Lott...

He is now richer than the judges
How do you define richness?
Blessed Discovered he’s richer than everyone there combined lol
kapafa pautu in this case, by income probably.
@@kapafapautu714 Usually money. He's a millionaire now. The judges are not - combined.
@@AWhileHanlin usually money😂
Ed: does a few dance moves
Woman: “Not even an option”
This dude got in a dance school by singing.
Yo Jordon its not a dance school
Also, he didn't get in
Yo Jordon I think that it’s an art school
Natalie that aint no art school. Wheres the pencils and drawing at?? Smh
@@burthummel162 lol
Didn't get accepted, but he became the most famous of them all
Thats why.... successful people dont come from shows or auditions like these... they come independantly..
I see this as an absolute win!
Ed's dancing... I can't
FEELS 0.0 😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Hah just like Zayn's dancing lmao. Yet they ended up pretty successful.
me at prom dancing by myself :')
😂😂 thank god he sings much better 😍
Ed needs to do a reaction video to this!
Yasss! 😍
YES!!
He did in celeb juice
Well he lived it soooo.
That ed sheeran guy has potential
Little did they know little Ed was going to become the guy he is today
Not Tesla you don‘t say....
Oh they knew. Didn't you watch the video "he has a classic rockstar voice, im gonna sign him either way"
Not Tesla I’m pretty sure he knew he was gonna make it.

Salut!

Je tiens la promesse 👌

They don’t know what they’re talking about, Ed’s dancing was legit
Joshua Pikal Music what does legit mean brohh?
It was funny
Uzumaki Lebar "legit" is a slang used to describe something that is of a particularly excellent quality/legitimate/authentic/original/awesome/genuine/real/really good/real deal/dope/cool ....
MAde my fuking day
Joshua Pikal Music ikr😂
"Everybody is a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."-Albert Einstein.
This made so much sense imagining that Ed is on top of the world today!
Yeah imagine judging people for a performing arts audition by their ability to dance...
I haven’t heard that quote before. Thanks for sharing it!
Did u get that from prince ea? I’m not hating just wondering
“Very surprised actually, because....I can’t dance”😂😂😂had me dead
Why did Ed have his hand up when they asked who has danced before? 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He danced 0:31 for him that means that he has danced before
Hahaha
@@eepe295 oh i just realize it now
Technically he danced, only not well
Probably because he wanted to take any opportunity available.
Its like Ed saying "You laugh at me because I was different, I laugh at you because you are all the same"
Smart
this quote is actually by Kurt Cobain
Thats was the Joker
💜 ✨ 🎉
!
"not even an option" 😂 now look at Thinking out loud music video
Linh Nguyễn yeah
Linh Nguyễn yeeaah
Linh Nguyễn haha yessss
Linh Nguyễn
Hhhgf
omg yesss
Little did they know, they were standing in the pressence of one of modern day's biggest artists.
That is how i imagined naruto looking in real life
He’s blond سارا sara
Nailed it
Who cares if he didn't get accepted to Hogwarts, he is a successful singer now!
Spoken like a true muggle...
Pretty sure he got in 😉
Blimey! You must be Harry Potter
I love you so much fellow potterhead
No but he is Ron Weasley
I actually think it was a good thing he didn’t get the part. He wrote lots of songs about experiences during his early adult life that would never have happened if he was shooting a tv show.
Proud to be a Sheerio it was 8 episodes and only lasted 1 season. Not sure it would have affected things all that much
The show wasn't forever.. lol
*"very surprised actually 'cuz i can't dance"*
*Had me dyin' XD*
“15 years old and smoking hand rolled cigarettes, running from the law through the backfields and getting drunk with my friends” Not a chance Ed you were in your bedroom working on your dance moves and making sure each strand of hair was spiked in a unique direction
Now look where he is now? Huh!
abd where they are now!
Steffie Swift - 666 likes omfg
That's why they posted the video..
Steffie Swift he now at detroit, actually at Shady Record with Eminem
There are people who suck at one thing and very good at the other thing
7 years later.... Thinking out loud was released.....it has both.... Dancing and singing which are amazing
how many of you have danced before ? "ed sheeran rising his hand" NO WAY lùao
Clement Joubert *raising*
7 years later Ed becomes a global Grammy award winning artist now worth £100million... Hold my beer
Good thing he realised he couldn't dance and pursued a career more fitting. I loved him in the Harry Potter series.
Julian Liew NOT HIM!!!
LooooooooooooooooooooooL
Ahahahahhahahah
Rachel Hicks is a joke😂😬😬
that wasn't him it's the guy in his Lego house video
Very suprising because I can't dance!😂 Ed Sheeran is a legend
The Chameleon i can schufflen.The dabce is so great!I love it.
ikr haha
He sure learned to dance in his “Thinking out loud” video!
The Chameleon Genie is/Phil Collins has a song called 'I Can't Dance' because he can't dance either...but he can write, play piano and drums and sing!
The Chameleon but he’s not a dancer 🤣
Just saw his concert in Lyon, the stadium was full and it was magic. Believe in your dreams
Judge - you did not pass..
Edsheeran 2019 - I don’t care 3:01
10 years later and hes one of the top artist in the whole world
Well, these judges aren't even popular as Ed now
Ikr
Yeah xd
hahahah..poor the judges
Kawin Synsukpermpoon at least he learned something from theses judges
Not many people are more popular than ed sheeran
1:26
Ed: "I can't dance"
Thinking out loud video: *"Am I a joke to you!?"*
If only they knew they were right next to a legend.
This just proves you have to fail to succeed
cameron wilson yess
cameron wilson exactly, because you learn a lot from your past mistakes
But was it really failure or just a redirection ? 😅
They actually did ackowledge his singing talent...
cameron wilson indeed
Hardly knew Ed Sheeran would become a star.
They new. This was dancing and acting as well.
But his music was so good they put him through, and one of the judges said he'd sign him anyway
You know him in personal?
They commented about his musical talent.. and how they would sign him on the spot if they could.. The show was more about acting than music so the star had to be a looker.. and a dancer
Not just star... He is a legend, brightest shinning star and the best singer ever
Moral of the Story: Don't compare yurself and be who you are. The path will be paved for you somehow,
I laughed so hard when Ed starts dancing and the Lady says "not even an option" 😂😂😂
"You need me, man I don't need you!"
Hell yeah!
He was literally the only one out of all them who made it and he was the one who didn’t get in that says a lot about the Skl 😂
Matthew James Thomas is doing very well these days on Broadway. I'm a big fan of his, as well as Ed, so I'm definitely biased!
Pixie lott is well-known aswell
SDPRZ i heard Pixie lott, isnt she quite famous as well?
Many only know ed !!! Others might only be popular in western market
Pixie Lott is a household name in the UK too, I don't know about abroad.
He got the chance to dance on his award-winning song and music video, Thinking Out Loud :)
They were trying to put Ed in a box. But Ed has never fit in a box. Coz he’s bigger than any of these people combined together. He has the talent, mad guitar skills, has a voice that speaks to listener’s hearts and souls and has this great ability to relate to his fans without even trying. Ed was not meant to be put in a show like this. This kind of shows need artists who knows how to fake and Ed is nothing but.
If he was selected maybe he wouldn't have met the right people to make him a star !
What I was thinking!
So true! Every thing happens for a reason!!
😏
I disagre, Ed Sheeran would became famous anyway because of his talent
He wouldnt meet Jamie Foxx & sleep at his couch.
And then he became The Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran Dances*
Lady: *not even an option* 😂😂
He's drop dead adorable here! ❤️❤️
Omg! How sweet his expression was!he hasn't change at all..He is still as shy nd humble as he used to be!love him so much!Ed is the sweetest star in the music world!
Wow I wasn't expecting to see Pixie Lott in this too
This kid has potential. I expect big things from him in the future. I am calling it now.
Good thing he plays instruments, writes music, sings well, and is adorable.
Biggest mistake of their lives letting Ed Sheeran walk out their doors... 😌
I think Ed was lucky that he wasn't casted or he wouldn't be where he is today. True they say "There is always something better waiting for you."
Vivek Chavan yeah well said
Best mistake for him. Who knows where he would have ended up if he had gotten through. Now he is arguably one of the biggest artists in the world.
Sure it was their loss, but for us Sheerios it's a benefit because if he didn't turn him down he wouldn't be the Ed we know him for, today.
Dancing, he plays the guitar, why does he need to dance.
cindyasters if it's the requirement for the role, then there isn't much you can do about it.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ED SHEERAN! He was soooo talented even when he was so young! They could already see what a outstanding artist he was, but could they see what a HUGE LEGEND HE D BECOME? :)
His talent shined through
Ed is 16, and so Talented. And I'm currently 16 too but a Potato.
At least you got eyes...
14 but sammee xD
@@barkatthemoon100 What happened to your eyes??
potato ...well I like potatoes
Talented different way. ..potato
Just shows that Ed was determined to make it no matter what those judges sad about him! Bet he's now earned more than all of them put together and is STILL a brilliant and down to earth young guy.
NOW I BELIEVE to *NEVER GIVE UP!*
And now he's more famous and probably richer than any of them. 🙃
S O no probably about it, it’s a certainty
All together
Pixie lott and ED SHEERAN in the same show?? what!!!
Well he can certainly learn a dance with a routine with the video for Thinking Out Loud!
I just watched Ed live in Ipswich. Wow, he is super super super talented. It shows what passion and practice can achieve.
That ed sheeran dancing is disturbing...😜😜
ALL OF THIS PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA THAT ED SHEERAN IS GONNA BE ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS PEOPLE ON PLANET EARTH.
jimbo villareal perhaps, but they were saying to themselves "he's 16, he's the real deal!" and "I'll be signing him anyway!" And he had already been shortlisted for this competition from among the best performers of his age, from the best performing arts schools in the country.
Do u think they don’t know like they’re still stuck back then or somin
Now he literally is top charts, almost all the time!
It's just so interesting to me that at this point they thought they would probably never see him again. I would be so interested to see all of their reactions to who he is now, or to see their reactions when they first heard about him getting big and realising they knew him.
When u realise that the people who work at Britannia high all failed
Obviously they weren't as successful as Ed but I'd say they probably did well for themselves.
When somebody ask to you "how do you see yourself in 10 years?", remember this video.
How they rejected Ed & Pixie Lott, their loss.
And there you have it, Ed and pixie and some of the best selling artists 😂👍🏻
Perfect example of where hard work n relentless determination gets u
He still kinda sounds the same❤️i love how he's stuck with his guitar throughout all these years, love you ed❤️
No matter now he is the winner in life ed Sheeran
And to see just how amazing Ed has become from here. He started from the bottom, and now he’s at the top.
Does anyone else remember Pixie Lott from back in those days?
Mama do
Yes, I do!
Raina Muriithi I remembered ... one hit wonder isn’t?...And back in days deadmau5, kaskade, etc..were making the coolest music and I remember that somebody made a remix of mama do that was sick...
Ed Sheeran is such an inspiration..! He gained so much improvement right now..!
he got through and he said that’s surprising I’m terrible at dancing, Fair played to him dancing and he knew there were cameras, Legend.
Look Ed Sheeran now, he's a superstar and rich.
Look at him now, dancing in his famous thinking out loud video
True😂😂😂😂
that place looks like the same room as the vdeoclip, isn't it?
Eds dancing gave me goosebumps i mean wow..
😭😂😭
Now he is the legend from all of this 40 people!!
3:01 he predicted the song with justin bieber !!!!
Which song?
He's so damn cute!
"...because I can't dance..." 😂😂😂
This is a lesson to us all never ever let anyone define you or underestimate your potential. You are more than what the judges say you are ..dont let negativity pull u down .. .10 years later all of the judges were wrong and im actually wondering where the 4 they said have potential are....dream big think big ..proud of u Ed
"Ed hasn't a clue in what he's doing" - and he's beautiful while doing it
I love Ed Sheeran’s music. Such a great voice. I had the pleasure of seeing him in concert in Atlanta in November 2018. Enjoyed every moment😍😘Jutta
At that time Ed even not realizing that he'll perform his amazing songs (in the future )like "Perfect", "shape of you", "thinking out loud " ❤
so fight for your dreams 🤗
I have a lot of respect and love for Ed sheeran , he proved everyone , he's a legend
“Very surprised actually cuz . . . I can’t dance.“ 😂💀 Ed has never changed cuz his humor was always so great, his voice was always golden, and his musical talent was always perfect lol only now he is a better dancer since the Thinking Out Loud video! He showed them! 😌👏🏾😂❤️
and then he did a music video doing contemporary. legend.
how cute❤ lil Ed was so adorable, as now ofc ☺
Little did Ed know that he would become more famous than any of these people❤️🙌🏻
So glad Ed just stands at the mic stand with a guitar 😂
One of my favorite in my playlist everyday is his songs 😊
Young Ed was adorable...
His dancing has certainly improved
Ed Sheeran....his voice so charm even only 16 years old
‘Ed hasn’t a clue what he’s doing ...’ ... she sure has eaten those words now
I love how pixie Lott is also in this
Ed 😍😍😍 ❤❤❤
He can dance and its 'Perfect'
Green Techno du dum tishh
"his voice is classic rock singer"
HA! that guy should be fired for not having a clue what he's talking about!
The Ed guy sang awesomely, wonder where is he now?
