Danny Dyer is sexier with a moustache than hunky pin-ups Harry Styles and Paul Mescal, say fans.

The ex-EastEnders actor, 48, beat off competition from fellow hairy-lipped stars, such as former One Direction singer Harry and Gladiator II heart-throb Paul.

Hardman Danny grew his tache for raunchy TV comedy-drama Rivals and sports the crumb duster in a new ad for Paddy Power Games, which conducted the survey.

It reveals one in five Brits reckon men look hotter with whiskers, while a third believe blokes who sport them look cooler. Nearly a quarter of respondents - 23% - said being moustachioed made them feel more confident.

A fifth of fellas have tried to grow one and a third of women have encouraged their gent to cultivate an upper lip caterpillar.

But Danny was overshadowed by Saltburn actor Jacob Elordi, who was voted the overall sexiest moustachioed star.

Dune stud muffin Timothe Chalamet, Game of Thrones hunk Pedro Pascal and Anthony Boyle, who plays whiskered beer mogul Arthur in new Netflix series House of Guinness, round off the top four sexiest fuzz faces.

Danny plays a Las Vegas casino kingpin in the hilarious new ad, which premieres on Saturday (October 18) and also features Coleen Rooney, Gemma Collins and Peter Crouch.

East End-born Danny said: I had a great time on set with the Paddy Power crew getting to live out my De Niro casino boss fantasies while sporting my current 80s tache.

Speaking earlier this year, Dyer revealed he has banned the Bard. The telly favourite said he refuses to do William Shakespeare because I dont get it.

The Football Factory actor said: I dont think its for me. Really? I understand that, as actors especially, youve got your Hamlet and all that, thats what you should be doing. I dont get it. I dont understand it. I struggle with the rhythm of it.

I totally respect everyone that does it, I absolutely do. I just dont feel it. I dont find it funny. Some people will laugh at it and I go, Well, I dont know what were laughing at here. I just cant.
