TV star and presenter Scarlett Moffatt is set to take the wheel of brand new BBC series Driving School. The former Gogglebox star will host the brand new show that sees learner drivers, who have been taught by their family in the pandemic because they were unable to have professional lessons.
And it seems the 31 year old is well-placed to host the programme, as she also struggled with getting her licence - and actually failed her test a total of 13 times. On the show, each new hopeful learner will take an intensive driving course with some of the top driving instructions in the UK to try and pass their test after just five days of lessons.

Scarlett added: "I hope that my new show will give us all the confidence to finally rip up those L plates and hit the road." The new 10 part series will be similar to the 1997 original, Driving School and was filmed in Bristol and South Wales. It was created by one of the first reality TV stars in the UK, Maureen Rees, who also has direct experience, as she tried and failed to pass her driving test six times.
She eventually passed on her seventh time in an automatic vehicle in the finale of the BBC show. Become an OK! VIP and see all our exclusives - for free! Become an OK! VIP and you will unlock access to all of our big exclusives...
