During the making of his latest album, Ed gave cameras an access-all-areas pass to the ins-and-outs of his life, with wife Cherry, who was pregnant with their second child at the time of the film starting, also lending her voice.
"Everything in my life sort of got so much better when Cherry got into it," Ed is heard telling cameras. "I got married, and I'm a dad to two daughters.
"We've reached our peak and then it just went...."
Initially intended as a retrospective of his career to date, life on the road and insight into his upcoming album, the series took on a much more personal meaning after a series of heartbreaking events.

This included the shock death of Ed's best friend Jamal Edwards, and also Cherry's sudden health scare after discovering a tumour while she was pregnant with their daughter, Jupiter.
As a result, Ed is seen breaking down in the back of a car, and later on stage, as he struggles to deal with the sudden pressure in his work and family life.
Cherry, who until now has stayed away from the spotlight, is seen in the trailer discussing her fears for her husband, who she claims "isn't giving himself enough time to process" what's happened around him.
In another worrying moment, she admits: "I've never seen him cry on stage."
