Wynne Evans is 'hanging onto his job' and the BBC could soon be forced to 'sever ties' with him after the Strictly Come Dancing star was caught up in yet another sleaze scandal, PR experts warned today. Evans, the opera singer known for the Go Compare adverts and his BBC Radio Wales show, was caught on film by The Mail On Sunday making a vile sexual comment at a photocall to launch the Strictly live tour in Birmingham earlier this month.

In the latest scandal to rock Evans and the BBC, the 52-year-old was recorded crudely suggesting a three-way sex session with presenter Janette Manrara, using the hugely demeaning term 'spit roast'. It comes after Evans was accused of 'groping' his dance partner Katya Jones, 35, during the televised shows last October, although the pair dismissed it as a joke that had been misunderstood.

Just weeks later, the presenter who hosts his show on BBC Radio Wales every day at 9am, was embroiled in further controversy after he made a 'vulgar' joke to a make-up artist about his double chin resembling a vagina. Evans' latest 'spit roast' joke has heaped further controversy on Strictly Come Dancing, which was plunged into turmoil by the Amanda Abbington and Giovanni Pernice scandal last year.

After coming under fire for his third gaffe in as many months, brand and culture expert Nick Ede told MailOnline: 'I think the BBC will have to tread very carefully with Wynne as his controversial and lewd comments will soon outweigh his popularity and the BBC won't tolerate this anymore.
