Paddy McGuinness made quite the entrance as he arrived at the BBC Sports Personality Of The Year Awards on a bike on Tuesday. 

After riding on to the stage at MediaCityUK in Salford he then got flustered when he suffered a live TV blunder.

The comedian, 51, is still celebrating his mammoth cross-country cycle challenge which saw him raise over £10million for Children In Need. 

Paddy undertook a 300-mile bike ride, beginning in Wrexham, Wales, last month and crossing the finish line in Glasgow on in mid November.

As he arrived into the studio in style, Gabby Logan then asked him to present an award at the last minute.

Alex Scott asked: ‘Paddy some nice wheels there… have you recovered from Children In Need?’

‘I raised £10.5million but I don’t like to talk about it,’ he joked. 

Gabby then said: ‘Paddy, it is time to do the honours.’

‘Oh right, ok… am I reading something?’ he replied, getting visibly flustered, ‘they’ve not told me this… and the winner is…’

‘Jean Paton,’ Laura Kenny added. 

The TV personality undertook the cycling challenge on his dream childhood bike, a Raleigh Chopper, painted in the colours of the charity mascot Pudsey.

Last week, Paddy got a tattoo tribute in honour after his Children In Need challenge raised more than £10 million.

And to mark the momentous success of his BBC Radio 2 UItra Endurance Cycle Challenge for Children in Need, Paddy revealed he was getting a tattoo of a Patch in honour of Pudsey Bear. 

In his Instagram post, the presenter showed off a tattoo artist mid-inking, pointing the tattoo gun at Paddy’s ankle.
