Ben Hardy has claimed that David Witts had the best body out of all the guys in the cast of EastEnders.

The Peter Beale actor is the latest Attitude cover star, following in the footsteps of Witts, who appeared on the cover of our May 2013 issue.

Asked who has the best body in the cast of the BBC soap, he said: “It was David Witts [who played Joey Branning].” “Well, it depends. It’s preferential, isn’t it?” he said, when asked if Witts has a better body than his own.

“He was in really good shape. I’m not going to say I’ve got the best body. That’s far too cocky. “I think, yeah, I would say David Witts. He was ripped but he was bulky as well.” 1823898-eastenders

Witts exited the soap as Joey Branning in December, after 18 months in the role.

The full interview with Ben Hardy appears in the latest Attitude, The Summer Issue, which is available to download for your iPad or tablet now.

The print magazine will be available to pick up in shops from this Wednesday (April 30) – including, once again, at WHSmiths.
