Emmerdale actor Lewis Cope scores first perfect 40 in Strictly Come Dancing 2025 season with Halloween routine.

Lewis Cope, the Emmerdale actor, earned four perfect tens on Strictly Come Dancing for his Halloween-themed Couple's Choice routine with Katya Jones, marking the first perfect score of the 2025 season. The dynamic performance, set to Radiohead’s “Creep” and featuring tap dancing, drew widespread praise from judges and audiences, with Craig Revel Horwood applauding mid-routine. Cope’s strong showing has propelled him to favorite status, with bookmakers adjusting odds to make him second behind George Clarke. The episode also saw Ellie Goldstein and Vito Coppola eliminated, while next week’s results show will feature a special Remembrance Sunday performance by the Band of the Royal Air Force Regiment.
