Strictly Come Dancing Wynne Evans apologises for inappropriate
The BBC says it had made it "very clear" to the opera singer that it didn't tolerate the behaviour.

"We were not previously aware of the remark and did not receive any complaints," the spokesperson added.

Evans starred in BBC One's Strictly Come Dancing with dance partner Katya Jones last year. He's now taking part in the series tour across the UK, with the last of the 30 performances scheduled for 9 February.

The BBC Radio Wales presenter did not dance during Saturday's show in Glasgow because of an ankle injury, though he did sing.

The Strictly Live Tour spokesperson said that Evans would be singing at the matinee show on Sunday, and both dancing and singing in evening show.

Evans' behaviour during the show attracted attention from viewers over what some described as awkward incidents. This included Jones appearing to turn down a high-five from Evans and move his hand from her waist during an episode in October.

The duo later said the high-five moment was a "running joke" between them, while Jones said it was "complete nonsense" that Evans' hand on her waist "made me feel uncomfortable or offended me in any way".
