Wynne Evans is nary saint and making an unpleasant lewd remark astir different Strictly co-star – pro-dancer Janette Manrara successful this lawsuit – is perfectly unacceptable.

But it’s bittersweet to spot different talented bloke suffer his occupation implicit a silly mistake. I thought we’d each got implicit cancel civilization and grown-up? Apparently not.

Wynne, was a talented opera vocalist earlier Strictly. It’s however helium got the gig arsenic That Annoying Man connected the GoCompare adverts.

Now each that lies successful tatters. Becoming a personage mightiness person earned him a fewer quid and immoderate other fans but it besides painted a elephantine people connected his back.

It’s intelligibly made him just crippled for everyone, particularly the virtue-signalling keyboard warriors of societal media who walk their clip seeking transgression and waiting to pounce.

He’s not the first, and astir apt won’t beryllium the last, to autumn foul of a anserine remark similar this.

Now, I’m not for a 2nd condoning thing helium mightiness person said oregon done. But travel connected guys, surely we tin spot past a foolish gag that has spectacularly backfired?

No wonderment we’ve got a procreation of airy and stale celebrities who don’t bash oregon accidental thing remotely interesting. Everyone’s perfectly frightened stiff. I made my sanction by being outspoken, but I reckon I’d conflict now.

The archetypal clip I rudely chopped idiosyncratic disconnected unrecorded connected aerial during my vigor show, erstwhile I was pioneering speech vigor backmost successful the Eighties successful Leeds, I’d astir apt person been thrown disconnected their aerial if we’d had societal media… oregon I’d person been an adjacent bigger star!

The happening is, we tin each unrecorded successful a boring, uncontroversial satellite if we privation to. But where’s the amusive successful that?

I don’t caput Wynne leaving the Strictly Live Tour, but there’s nary crushed to vanish him completely.
