James Hewitt is launching an unlikely pop career – as a rapper.

The former major has teamed up with singer MC Harvey from So Solid Crew to release a new single, reports the Evening Standard.

The unlikely duo hope for a Christmas No.1 with Ding Dong – referring to one of Hewitt’s chat-up lines.

Hewitt, who tried to sell love letters from Princess Diana, said: ‘I think people have had enough of Sir Cliff Richard, boy bands and Pop Idol. It’s time to give the public something more unusual.’

The 45-year-old ex-Army officer and Harvey, 25, penned the number after becoming friends on Channel 4’s The Games.
