You go girl! Judi Dench added another string to her bow as she showcased her moves by dancing in a TikTok video alongside grandson Sam Williams, 22

In the clip shared on Twitter and Sam’s TikTok, Sam and Judi stood still as the 1977 song Baby Come Back by Player began to play.

They then launched into their dance, synchronising their movements as they danced in time to the music.

Judi was seen on a tablet screen which was resting on a table at the forefront of the clip.

And the Victoria and Abdul star looked completely at ease as she expertly bopped along in her garden while wearing a chic white ensemble.

While Sam featured in the main screen and dressed casually in a black hoodie with cream, red and blue detailing.

The youngster, who is the son of Judi and late husband Michael Williams’ daughter Finty Williams, looked delighted as the two completed the short routine.

And fans watching on Twitter were thrilled too, not just at the dance, but because many are convinced he is actually pop superstar Ed Sheeran, 29.

In fact, while Ed and Sam have striking similarities with their flame red hair and cheeky smiles, Sam has in fact been mistaken for the Shape Of You hitmaker. 

In 2017, Judi revealed a story in which she was out in London’s Convent Garden with her grandson when they were stopped by a passer-by who asked for a photo. 

She happily agreed – only to be told that the fan actually wanted a snap of Sam, who he wrongly believed was Ed.

When Ed heard the story through a showbiz agent, he obtained Sam’s mobile number and sent him a text saying: ‘I hear I look a lot like you.’ 

Ed, is that you? And fans watching on Twitter were thrilled too, not just at the dance, but because many are convinced he is actually pop superstar Ed Sheeran, 29

With Judi declaring in The Lady: ‘I lost my heart to Ed over that.’ 

Meanwhile, last year the actress told how Ed actually approached Sam and asked him to be his stunt double.

The Skyfall actress told The Mirror: ‘He gets mobbed. Now he looks like him even more so’ before explaining the chart-topper invited the family to a show and asked Sam if he’d like to be his double. 

However, Sam, who works at a casting agency, turned down the star, with Judi adding: ‘Sammy refuses to do that, he’s very good.’
