Tom Hardy spotted taking his bike test in Nuneaton

ACTOR Tom Hardy was spotted taking his motorcycle test in Nuneaton over the weekend.

A surprised Joanne Vowles spotted the actor, who has starred in The Dark Knight Rises, Mad Max and Inception, at a petrol station in Nuneaton, near Coventry, as he was stopped getting petrol while out taking his motorcycle test.

Speaking to the Coventry Telegraph, Joanne Vowles said Hardy was a ‘humble, drop-dead gorgeous and a lovely bloke.’

After seeing him at the petrol station, she asked him if he was Tom Hardy, to which he replied ‘yes’, before posing for some photos with Joanne and her friends.

This isn’t the first time Hady has made the news recently – in April he caught a scooter thief near his house in Richmond, London.
