Danny Dyer is lining up pop idol Robbie Williams to sing at his daughter Dani’s wedding to West Ham and England ace Jarrod Bowen.

The EastEnders actor has become pals with the former Take That star and is calling in a favour after joining him on stage at a gig.

Danny, 47, revealed: “It would be f***ing cool as f***, wouldn’t it?

“I love him and he owes me a favour, because when I went and done his gig at Hyde Park, he said, ‘Look, listen, Dan, would you come and sing Parklife?

“I was like, ‘Yeah, of course I will.’ And he went, ‘Honestly, that means I owe you a favour.’

“And so I did think, ‘Oh God, what could I ask him for a favour for?’ And then of course, I thought, ‘Well, my daughter’s getting married and what better way for her first dance to be him singing Angels?’”

Mum-of-three Dani, 28, told her dad on their Live and Let Dyers podcast she “would love it” if Robbie performs at her big day bash.

She added: “I would love Robbie, because it’s always that thing, isn’t it, who are you going to have sing at your wedding? But Robbie would be great.

“It would be so cool, especially for like the mums and the nans, they all love him. Do you know what I mean? It would just feel so right.”

Danny joined Robbie, 50, on stage last summer to belt out a cover of Blur’s hit Parklife.

He said: “It was a real exhilarating experience for me – 65,000 thousand people in Hyde Park. And of course, I was just surprised. I didn’t quite know how it was going to be.”

Danny also said that Robbie wanted a role in his new movie set Marching Powder which is set for release this year.

The comedy-drama about a drug-addicted football hooligan who tries to turn his life around is the sequel to the 2004 movie The Football Factory.

He added: “He was gonna be in my film Marching Powder, we wrote a scene where I get thrown in a prison cell and he’s in the prison cell.

“I just felt it went a little bit too left-field. Do you know what I mean? I think it would have plucked everyone out of this sort of little story we’re trying to tell too much.

“So we decided to not do it in the end, which Robbie totally understood. There’s a lot of love that oozes out of him, he is the most handsome man.”
