"I love the show, I love Strictly Come Dancing and it's been a massive part of my life, I did it for seven years," he began. "There's still a part of me that says 'never say never' about going back to it, maybe in a different role, who knows? But for now, everything is theatre for me."
Loose Women anchor Kaye Adams then interjected: "Well you say another role, Anton [Du Beke]'s got that judging seat for a wee while, but he might just be keeping it warm for you Kevin?", to which Kevin responded: "Hey, if he wants to move aside or any of the others want to move aside I'd happily be a judge on Strictly Come Dancing!"
For now, however, Kevin can be found tap dancing away each night as Cosmo – a part he described as a "dream come true" after revealing that girlfriend, Stacey Dooley had played a part in "manifesting" the role.

Kevin said he'd "happily" return to Strictly as a judge
Last month, ahead of opening night, Kevin shared a clip of him and Stacey watching the original film version at Christmas. In the caption, he sweetly wrote: "On Christmas Day me and @sjdooley watched Singin In The Rain. Me for the millionth time, Stace for the 1st time.
"She recorded me here cos she could see how much I love it! Afterwards she said, 'I think Cosmo Brown is the perfect role for you'. I said, 'It would be a dream but I don't tap dance'."
But that wasn't the end of the story: "A few months later my agent called me and randomly asked what I thought about auditioning for Cosmo in Singin In The Rain at @sadlers_wells!! "So I started learning to tap. From youtube at home and then from the amazing @ryan_gover. Tonight is opening night. Dream come true. @intherainsocial."
