CELEBRITIES including pop star Gareth Gates and Big Brother star Jade Goody have been put to shame by a group of learner drivers from Darlington.
The stars have been learning to drive for Comic Relief Celebrity Driving School show, but have been failing miserably.
At the same time, a group of eight female motorists on a driving theory test course set up by the Cockerton and Branksome Living Enterprise (Cable) have passed with flying colours.
The group notched up a 100 per cent pass rate in their driving theory test and now face the final hurdle of their practical.
David Regan of Cable said: "They've all done really well, unlike the celebrity drivers."
The women were taking part in a course held every Thursday at the Cable offices in Branksome.
The course is open to everyone in the Darlington area and includes a hazard perception test and tips on the driving theory exam.
