Chris Moyles has admitted that he turned down the chance to compete in Strictly Come Dancing.

The Radio One DJ, who yesterday interviewed new contestant Patsy Kensit, told The Daily Star that the BBC didn’t offer him enough money to tempt him to sign up.

He said:

“They asked me last year and I was like, ‘You’ve got to be kidding.’

“Especially for the dough on offer. I can make more busking.”
