In spite of his concerns that he wouldn’t be successful on Strictly, the DCI John Barnaby favourite said he is an “enormous fan” of the BBC show and that he met some of the stars during a recent episode of Midsomer Murders.
He said: “We have some marvellous stars, including some from Strictly Come Dancing.
“I am an enormous fan so seeing this table full of people I had seen on Strictly, people who I have admired and voted for, all there, in the show was incredibly exciting.
“I also got to watch them dance and they’re seriously brilliant.”
Midsomer Murders airs tonight from 5pm to 11pm on ITV3.
