DARTS sensation Luke Littler has narrowly failed his driving theory test for the "fourth time and counting".
The 2025 PDC World Darts champion became the youngest ever winner of the tournament at just 17 years old - and he finally got to celebrate a darts victory with a legal pint later that month when he turned 18.

Now, he's going through the next teenage milestone - getting his driving licence.
Unfortunately for Littler, he's not as good at spotting dangers on the road as he is at pinning darts on the board.
Posting to Instagram, the Manchester United fan uploaded a picture of his driving theory results on to his story.
The top of the letter read: 'I'm sorry to tell you that you failed your car theory test.'

The picture shows Littler passed his multiple choice test, scoring 45 out of 50 and surpassing the required pass mark of 43.
But it was on hazard perception that he fell down.
He managed 41 out of 75, meaning he was agonisingly short of the 43-point pass mark.
He summed up his fail with the caption: '4th time… and counting.'

Littler, who bagged himself an MBE last month, was recently teased by his pal on TV for being unable to pass his theory.
Morgan Burtwistle, better known as streamer AngryGinge, referenced Littler's extensive trophy cabinet and lucrative brand deals during their Celebrity Gogglebox appearance.

He asked: 'What have we got behind us here, Luke?'
Littler replied: 'What haven't we got?'
Joking with his friend, AngryGinge answered: 'You can do all this, but you can't pass your driving theory.'
Littler has won two World Series of Darts titles, 13 PDC titles and five major titles, as well as being crowned the youngest player to hit a televised nine-dart finish.
But while he's already made those dreams come true, it appears his dream of driving a Mercedes A-Class will have to be put on hold for now.

Great British Bake Off to return as trailer reveals hosts and judges lineup
The Great British Bake Off has dropped a trailer for its upcoming season of the hit baking show. A minute-long teaser for the Channel 4 reality programme was released on Wednesday (13 August), which features the voice of comedian Joe Wilkinson who takes the audience on a journey through space and time - and baking ingredients. In the trailer, hosts Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond can be seen as animated characters. "From it grew life, intelligent life, adorned in knitwear and leopard print,' Wilkinson narrates. After various shots of the big bang mixed with baked goods, the camera pans out of Paul Hollywood 's eye. 'Once there was nothing, and then there was Bake Off,' Wilkinson states. Prue Leith is not featured in the trailer, though Channel 4 confirmed she will be taking part.

Gary Lineker attends niece Tia's lavish wedding as fallout with brother Wayne eases
The brothers have reunited on two occasions this summer FEUD OVER? Gary Lineker attends niece Tia's lavish wedding as fallout with brother Wayne eases Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) GARY Lineker has been seen attending his niece Tia's lavish wedding as the fallout with his brother Wayne seemingly eases. Back in June, Gary appeared to put his feud with brother Wayne to one side as they partied at a family wedding in Ibiza - and now they have taken yet another step towards putting their rift to bed.

Tia shared the first glimpse of her lavish Mallorca wedding on Instagram on Wednesday - with her uncle clearly in attendance. She tied the knot with husband Harry Agombar, and her uncle Gary was sitting among the guests despite the 17-year feud between the Lineker brothers. Her father Wayne walked her down the alter and linked onto her arm as he did so. Tia looked stunning in a white dress, complete with a veil and huge bouquet of flowers. Her father walked beside her in a dapper black suit. BROTHERS REUNITE Gary was seen sitting among the guests, signalling a truce between the brothers. This was their second reunion in recent weeks. Back in June the former Match of the Day host's son Harry got married. Harry, 31, tied the knot with partner Bella in a luxurious ceremony on the Spanish island of Ibiza. Gary Lineker reveals Match of the Day blunder he made in last-ever appearance for first time in 26 years Spirits were high as all the family celebrated together beneath the sunshine. GARY AND WAYNE'S FEUD The two brothers are believed to have fallen out while Gary was with his second wife Danielle Bux. They travelled to Ibiza to visit Wayne but the trip broke their close relationship, which saw an end to their weekly phone calls. He told The Sun in 2015: "In my opinion, Danielle cost me my relationship with my brother. "Sadly Gary is no longer a part of my life. "They came to Ibiza in August 2008 and it was really awkward. "I didn't spark with Danielle and our relationship was cold." Wayne was Gary's best man at his first wedding to Michelle Cockayne in 1986. But the club owner did not attend as the ex-BBC host tied to knot with Danielle because his invite did not extend to his girlfriend at the time Ana Tanaka. Opening up on the brother's relationship in a recent interview with The Mail, Wayne said: "It's not so good to be honest, we don't really speak very often. "I'll always be his number one fan."

Yungblud reveals heartbreaking way he learned pal Ozzy Osbourne had died as he opens up on romance with Jesse Jo Stark
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) IT has been a whirlwind few months for Yungblud. The British rocker landed his third consecutive No1 album with Idols, helped make history at Ozzy Osbourne's Back To The Beginning concert at Villa Park and now he is on the cusp of releasing his first feature-length music film. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 11 Yungblud was friends with Ozzy Osbourne Credit: Instagram 11 The artist is on the cusp of releasing his first feature-length music film, Are You Ready Boy? 'It's been f***ing nuts,' Yungblud, real name Dominic Harrison, tells me from his very posh suite in The Londoner Hotel. As I hug him with a glass of wine in hand, he laughs and tells me: 'Why the f***k not? I'll have a glass of champagne.' Dom, who Bizarre have championed since the release of his debut album in 2019, is always the most colourful, clever and captivating interviewee. And when we speak about his close friendship with Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy he is visibly moved. 'The past couple of weeks have been very weird to connect with,' Dom explains. 'You get to know someone personally, who you love. And then they leave. 'I was texting him, then his son Jack texted me and said, 'He's gone.' I'm like, 'What?' 'Being around the family and being at the funeral, the amount of love there. That family are real as f***k. 'The dream is to have kids and a family like that. There's no gimmicks. It's authentic.' Dom has now released his live version of Ozzy's 1972 solo hit Changes as a charity single to help raise money for Cure Parkinson's, Birmingham Children's Hospital, and Acorns Children's Hospice. He adds: 'The best thing is that I got to honour my hero. That's all I was thinking about. I was singing for one man there.' Touching clip Jack Osbourne reveals how dad Ozzy's fan tributes are being saved with 'flowers to be buried with him' His new film, Yungblud. Are You Ready Boy?, was made in Berlin, with cameras following Dom and his band as they recorded a live version of Idols at the Hansa Studios where David Bowie and U2 laid down some of their famous albums. The footage is searingly honest and shows a different side to the brash, confident Yungblud who his fans adore. 'I will never watch it again, it's too uncomfortable,' Dom explains of the film, which will be shown in 150 cinemas nationwide between August 20 and 24. 'I was ready to make a film like this because I completely alleviated all control. 'When people have seen ten seconds of me on the internet, they think they know me. But I'm calm, I'm emotional, I'm angry in places, I'm very passionate. 'I think something like this in today's day and age, where you elongate the imagination, you let it be raw as f**k, is rare. And I think it's going to stand out.' 11 The Sun's Ellie Henman with Yungblud Credit: Supplied Created by filmmaker Paul Dugdale, Yungblud is seen performing the 12-track album in full — with only one take per track. Dom explains: 'I said to Paul, 'I don't want to do it after we've been on the road and toured it for a year.' Because when it becomes muscle memory, it's easier. 'The red light goes on, you've got to do it in one take.' The two-hour film also shines a light on Dom's relationship with fellow musician Jesse Jo Stark. In a series of candid interviews, Dom opens up about his decision to put their relationship on hold so he could focus on himself and making the record. I revealed this week that the pair are now back together. And Dom, it's clear to see, is a man who is very much in love. He says: 'Sacrificing Jesse Jo and the love bit, it's a very strange thing. 'I've never been in a real relationship in rock music — genuinely loving someone. We all know there's fing couples out there that do this for the media. 'Genuinely, we really love each other. It's so hard to navigate in rock music. When everyone's staring, everyone's got a perception, everyone's got a narrative 'Like when your narrative isn't yours, it's painted by how many views a video gets. The more views a video gets, the more truthful it is, you know. That was rough.' For now, life for Dom is good, and his mum and aunts were at the film premiere in London's Leicester Square on Tuesday. As I leave, Dom tells me: 'I'm still just Dom from Donny, who's trying to f***ing get that high note. To touch the f***ing sky.' I think you've already got to Cloud Nine, Dom.

The Rolling Stones rocker is understood to have invited around 50 guests, including his bandmate Ronnie Wood and actor Sacha Baron Cohen, but kept a divide to make sure he had some space. Comedian Rob Beckett blagged himself a seat at the table after being invited to the event by Jimmy Carr. And I'm amazed he could remember any of it as he turned up after watching Oasis at Wembley Stadium. Rob revealed: 'I said hello to Mick. I didn't properly chat to him because there was a separate room that had Mick in it with Sacha. 'I was chatting to Ronnie Wood and Ronnie's wife, Sally, for most of the night.' Speaking on his Parenting Hell podcast, Rob added: 'A cake came out, a lovely chocolate cake. I'm stood there and I'm absolutely off my f***ing head. 'I've drunk, I'd say at this point, six pints of lager, two espresso martinis, and I'd say a bottle-and-a-half of rose, and just been to the best gig of my life. 'I'm stood wearing a Stone Island anorak with a vodka and soda talking absolute s***e.'

She said: 'I turn around and there was Fatboy. I said, 'Mr Cook, I presume?' He said, 'How do you fancy not going to bed with me tonight?' i.e, do you want to go out? It was such a great line.'

He upset quite a few fans in Lithuania on Tuesday after cancelling a show due to illness, just hours before the gig. But he quickly silenced any critics when he proved he really was sick. The Human singer shared photos from his hospital ward and wrote: 'Being stuck in hospital in Lithuania was not on my list of s**t to do before you die! 'Anyone watching anything good? I've got lots of time to kill. 'Sorry to anyone that had tickets to my shows. Trust me, I'd rather be on stage.'
