Throughout the years, Wynne has performed with many celebrities in the adverts, such as Sue Barker, Stuart Pearce, and Ray Mears. "She lived about 10 minutes away from me. And we met in a pub. I went because it was a big secret. We met in this beer garden of a pub near where she lives now, actually and we did the deal."When the advert came out and went viral, Wynne found that it would not be as rosy as he may have expected.
It was the first major ad in the age of social network. People could interact with you immediately. And they'd say 'I hope your mother dies of cancer"I looked at it and I thought f***, that's a lot of people. I thought I needed to get a gauge of how hated I am. "I was working at the Royal Opera House and it got out that I was working . My name wasn't famous. The Go Compare man was famous.
As I'm walking away he plays something that he has obviously pre programmed and it goes 'Hasta la vista, fatty'"And she said I'm going to tear up your contract. She said I want you to go away and come back to renegotiate your contract. Renegotiate it knowing what you know." "He's trying to write a sentence back because it's silence for minutes. I say to fill the silence, 'Are you going anywhere nice on your holiday this year?' to the brainiest man in the world."
