Willie Thorne, who appeared on last years Strictly Come Dancing series has admitted that he hasn’t danced since leaving the show.

Thorne, 54, told Teletext: “I haven’t danced since because I broke my leg and I put on three stone.

“But I still intend to do some dancing with my wife. It’s a shame as I lost two stone while training for five weeks. I want to learn to jive.”

He told The Sun: “ITV asked me last year but it clashed with Strictly so I said I’d do it this year instead.”

He added: “I’d love to go into the jungle and I’ll eat anything for money.”

Willie last night found himself in the bottom two along with football star, John Barnes.

But the judges weren’t big Willie fans and Bruno Tonioli said his dancing style resembled “a polar bear in the Sahara”.
So its bye bye Willie! Better luck next time.

Instead Willie was light on his feet, and moved with an elegance you couldn’t have expected. For such a big man, he seemed so shy and so unassuming. I just wanted to pinch his chubby cheeks and tell him he was great.

I hope he lasts at least a few weeks in this new SCD series!
