Paddy McGuinness has raised more than £9 million following his charity bike ride for BBC Children in Need.

The Radio 2 presenter, also known for Take Me Out and Top Gear, finished his BBC Radio 2 ultra endurance cycle challenge, which saw him travel through three nations and eight counties over the week.

McGuinness, 51, had a total of more than £8 million on Friday after finishing the 300-mile journey on his dream childhood bike, a Raleigh Chopper, which was painted in the colours of the charity’s mascot, Pudsey.

He announced on his Sunday BBC Radio 2 show that this had increased to £9.12 million.

Scottish businessman Sir Tom Hunter has pledged to match the amount raised up to £3 million.
