In a Scrum V TV programme on Thursday 16th September, he says he wants to quit the Ospreys to be closer to his children in London.

The 28-year-old also thinks Wales have missed him during an 18-month absence.

And he feels it will take him only "one or two games" to reach Six Nations form - and wants to move from centre to fly-half when he returns to action.

Henson is on indefinite unpaid leave from the Ospreys and is contracted to the west Wales region until May 2011, but Scrum V revealed on 9 September that he wanted to move away.

I look on examples of Gareth Thomas and Stephen Jones - they left Wales and suddenly people were saying they were brilliant players, brilliant people because they left Wales. So I'm thinking: 'Maybe I'll get good press then if I leave Wales like they did and then come back'

Gavin Henson

In Strictly Gavin: A Scrum V Special, to be screened on BBC TWO Wales and online at 2000 BST on Thursday, Henson says he will only return to play for the Ospreys if his legal advisors say he has no other choice.
