Lewis: I'll Cope with getting my kit off

STRICTLY ABS PLEDGE

- by JAMES INGHAM

EMMERDALE hunk Lewis Cope is ready to strip his way to the Strictly title.

The buff actor has vowed to show off his newfound six-pack.

Lewis, 30, said: "If it’s right for the dance I'd happily go topless. It would be a shame if we didn’t."

The former model is in the shape of his life from dancing eight hours a day and extra gym sessions.

Last week, we told how fellow celeb, Gladiator’s Harry Aikines-Aryeetey, was planning to win over voters by flashing more flesh.
