I'm nearly down to single digit chins

Wynne jests he moves like Mr Blobby but is not afraid of judges after TV ad jibes

GO Compare man Wynne Evans jokes that dancing on Strictly is helping him lose weight - from his famous chins.

Wynne, who is famed for being the tubby tenor in the TV insurance adverts, reckons he resembles Mr Blobby on the dance floor.

But the BBC radio host isn't worried about drubbings from the judges - as he's used to getting it in the neck over his annoying operatic ads.

Wynne, 52, who made his dance floor debut with pro partner Katya Jones last night, has only just realised he can actually throw some shapes. He says: "I have discovered that I've got hips, which I didn't know about until about a week ago. It's funny, isn't it? I look like I'm belly dancing sometimes, but I'm not. I'm just trying to do the samba.
