Sheeran will play 'Teddy', one of the children Marilyn was nanny to when she lived in the UK.

He visits Summer Bay and surprises everyone when he turns out to be chart-topping singer Sheeran, treating them to a special performance in The Diner.

Sheeran previously said of his cameo in Home and Away: "It's an Australian institution. It's always on in my local chip shop.

"I got asked to do it and it sounded like it could be fun. I did Shortland Street in New Zealand as well and I'm sure if Emmerdale or EastEnders ever ask me in England I would do that as well."

Alec Snow, who plays Matt Page in the soap, said: "It was an awesome experience filming with Ed because he seemed like a really down-to-earth, nice guy that genuinely wanted to be there.

"It was funny seeing how star-struck everyone both on and off set was. It was quite entertaining seeing the effect he had on everyone around him."

Sheeran's cameo is expected to air on RTÉ2 in a few months time.The 24-year-old singer has clearly picked up the acting bug and was recently revealed to have been given a recurring role in FX's gory new medieval drama The Bastard Executioner.
