A statue on the side of the A12 in Suffolk has caught the attention of BBC Radio 1 host Greg James. 

The 26-foot Yoxman statue, just outside of Yoxford, caught the eye of James while he was driving through the area while on holiday. 

Speaking on his breakfast show on Monday, he said: "This is incredible, why is there not a queue of traffic waiting to take photos of it? It's mighty."

"I think you could probably see his penis from space. It's pretty big."

The statue was erected near Cockfield Hall in November 2021 and there have previously been concerns thought it could distract drivers using the A12

Plans to illuminate the statue were submitted to East Suffolk Council in May.
