Kenny Logan is set to wear a thong on Strictly Come Dancing - after the BBC banned him from his wearing his kilt in the 'traditional manner'.

The Scotsman plans to wear his national dress next week, but th BBC bosses balked at the prospect of the former rugby star performing live with no underwear to protect his modesty

So now Kenny's now eyeing up the prospect of adding a Brazilian touch to his garb.

He chuckles to The Sun, "As a true Scotsman I would say there will be nothing under the kilt but the BBC have already said to me there's no way I can do it without anything underneath. I might have to wear a thong!"

However, Logan - whose wife Gabby is also competing on the hit BBC show - says that he may struggle to get past this week's Samba in order to make the next show at all.

"This week is going to be very hard for me," he explains. "It feels like a car crash more than a dance.

"I can’t win with the judges, they have told me to take more risks. So this week I am going to be a lot cheesier. I’m going for the cheeky chappie as the first two weeks were a bit serious. "
