Radio 2 DJ Johnnie Walker has bought a new motorhome and is "delighted" with the new vehicle, according to a source.

The veteran broadcaster collected the keys to his new holiday home from the Wellington area, in Somerset, reports the Somerset County Gazette.

Mr Walker bought an Autotrail Cheyenne 630, saying he was delighted with the new vehicle.

After a short test drive around the area he then set off for a holiday in the south of France to full road test the vehicle, the newspaper added.

The DJ said he was attracted to the idea of owning a motorhome after visiting a local show earlier this year.

Mr Walker ordered the motorhome last month after "falling in love" with the Autotrail model, according to MotorCaravan.

The star even visited to factory of the vehicle manufacturer in Grimsby to see how they are made and met the managing director, David Thomas.
