The BBC is reportedly preparing to hand Hamza Yassin his own nature show following his stint on Strictly Come Dancing.

Hamza Yassin will reportedly be given his own nature series by the BBC following his success on Strictly Come Dancing.

Initially dismissed as one of the early favourites to be voted off the show, the 32-year-old has delivered a string of impressive performances and is now the odds-on favourite to win the series later this month.

According to The Sun, BBC execs have been impressed with how Yassin has charmed viewers and are keen to reward him with his own show.

A source told the newspaper: "He's been nothing short of a sensation on Strictly this year, coming from being a virtual unknown to becoming a huge favourite among viewers and judges alike.

"That's why he's invariably been near the top of the scoreboard every week and has never been in the dance-off.

"But his popularity is as much to do with his personality and humility as anything else — and that's what bosses are keen to develop further."

Strictly continues tonight at 8pm on BBC One.
