From Gangnam Style to the bongo drum: who knew ex-Labour MP Ed Balls’ cultural talents spread so far and wide? The former Strictly Come Dancing favourite pulled out a drum and tapped out an enthusiastic performance as part of an online jam, The CCC Festival, on Sunday night, alongside musician Ciaran Algar.

Ed said afterwards: “Made my festival debut tonight. I loved it, and I think I managed to keep in time. The things we end up getting up to in lockdown!” Keep practising, Ed, and you might just make it to The Healing Field tents in Glastonbury.

Handily enough, you’ve got an extra year to perfect your act. Since leaving politics behind in 2015, ex Labour MP Ed Balls has become a firm face in the entertainment industry.
