Love Island Betting Odds – Which Man Will Win?

by Stuart Heritage

Last night saw the launch of the most auspicious TV show of the year. Judging by last night’s lavish launch, ITV is banking a whole lot on Love Island this year, so it’s a shame that most people just sat around going “who’s that?” for 90 minutes.

All the Love Island pieces are in place; Patrick Kielty being about as entertaining as contracting a batch of intestinal parasites, Fearne Cotton trying far too hard to be streetwise and 11 slow-witted, attention-hungry nano-celebrities all doing their best to make us so angry that the vein in our head pops and wraps around our neck. We’ll come to exactly what Love Island holds for the contestants tomorrow, but we haven’t finished saying hello yet.

Yesterday we looked at the betting odds for the women to win Love Island, and now it’s time for the men. Here are the Love Island betting odds for all of the male contestants to win, with betting odds coming from PaddyPower.com…

Big Brother Betting Odds: All But Jayne Up, Who’ll Win?

by Stuart Heritage

There is no news that strikes cold black dread into our hearts as much as ‘Big Brother housemates play Spin The Bottle’. Mostly because we can’t help but wonder what awful children any union between them would produce.

But, holding our nose and wearing rubber gloves, we’re going to tell you what happened during the Big Brother Spin The Bottle game: Nikki kissed Pete, Aisleyne kissed Pete, Nikki kissed Aisleyne, Aisleyne didn’t kiss Spiral. Spiral flew into a rejection-fuelled rampage that lasted for 12 hours. And then, the moment none of us wanted to ever see. Glyn was given his second lapdance. By Jayne. Oh the humanity.

Has that display of filth affected the Big Brother betting odds? Let’s have a look: here are the Big Brother betting odds to win for Michael, Aisleyne, Jennie and Mikey, with betting odds from PaddyPower.com…

Big Brother Betting Odds: Lea Booted, Who’ll Win?

by Stuart Heritage

That’s the last we’ll see of Lea, then. After several weeks of paranoid bitching, manipulative weeping and prolific use of the most offensive swearword in the English language, Lea was evicted from Big Brother on Friday night.

And that’s it – Lea’s Big Brother eviction was blissfully gimmick-free. A secret house wasn’t revealed, the Big Brother housemates didn’t chain themselves together and Lea’s parting shot wasn’t – as we’d suspected – a dramatic unzipping of her knockers allowing two slimy, gore-covered new midget Big Brother housemates to crawl out and take her place. In fact, the most thrilling thing to happen from Lea’s Big Brother eviction was that Pete dyed his hair yellow, which is hardly sensational. Still, Susie’s still in the house, so that boob/midget thing might still happen.

But who’ll win Big Brother? Here’s the first part of this week’s Big Brother betting odds to win, for Susie, Richard, Imogen and Jayne, with betting odds provided by PaddyPower…

Love Island Betting Odds: Starts Tonight, God Help Us

by Stuart Heritage

Oh Christ, it’s that time of year again. Now that the World Cup is over, ITV can get on and start to show Love Island. You know, last year it was called Celebrity Love Island but this year – in a show of alarming honesty – it’s just Love Island.

If you didn’t see it last year, the concept of Love Island is this; a bunch of partially-known people go and stay on a desert island and do nothing but get slowly goaded into shagging each other for money. It’s a bit like the final scene of Requiem For A Dream, really, but about 50 times more upsetting.

Anyway, we’re going to doing the whole Love Island betting odds thing for the duration of the show, and that starts today with the early Love Island betting odds for the winning lady, with betting odds from PaddyPower.com, although – since none of these people are the slightest bit famous – it’s more of an explanation about who these people actually are…

Big Brother Betting Odds – Goodbye Lea?

by Stuart Heritage

Tonight the Big Brother house will either lose one or two great big pink spheres, depending on if Richard’s bald head or Lea’s giant foul boobies get evicted from Big Brother.

Generally, things inside the house have perked up a bit from the other night, when Aisleyne spent about 36 hours wailing like the Wookie Hole Witch because she made a bouncer go back to his house. Since then, the old Big Brother housemates and the new Big Brother housemates have begun to gel – apart from Jayne, who remains about as likeable as a cornish pasty with a shit in it.

But, the big question is – who will get evicted from the Big Brother house tonight? Here are the Big Brother betting odds for Lea and Richard, with betting odds coming from PaddyPower.com…

Big Brother Betting Odds – Lea Out Tomorrow?

by Stuart Heritage

How much you you think that Big Brother house next door cost to build? However much it was, it was too much – the whole thing was rumbled in seconds and all we got out of it was five more witless Big Brother housemates.

The whole Big Brother house next door task stumbled to a conclusion last night, leaving everyone involved at least attempting to feign surprise about what had been going on all along. Now, let’s never speak of the Big Brother house next door again – we’d be surprised if Big Brother ever does.

Far more interesting is speculating about who’s going to get evicted from the Big Brother house tomorrow, and we’ve got the latest Big Brother betting odds for the eviction of Lea and Richard, with betting odds coming from PaddyPower.com…

Big Brother Betting Odds: Lea & Richard Up, Who’ll Win?

by Stuart Heritage

Fans of rampant paranoia, relentlessly patronising conversations and neverending strings of teary breakdowns have every reason to celebrate – Lea and Richard are up for Big Brother eviction this Friday.

Who’ll leave the Big Brother house is something we’ll discuss tomorrow – but that’s probably not even the most exciting thing that’ll happen on Friday’s Big Brother. We’re still due some more of the housemates next door trickling through into the main Big Brother house, and rumours abound that the housemates are going to spend the weekend randomly chained in pairs. And that’s bound to be lots of fun, especially if Nikki manages to get her dreadful big mouth chained shut.

For now, though, let’s look at the final part of our Big Brother betting odds to win, for Spiral, Glyn, Nikki and Pete, with betting odds provided by PaddyPower.com…

Big Brother Betting Odds: Jayne In The House, Who’ll Win?

by Stuart Heritage

That House Next Door thing didn’t last very long, did it? After a couple of days, Jayne is already in the main Big Brother house, annoying everyone with her sub-Kinga ‘look at me’ tactics.

Over the rest of the week, we’d imagine that everyone else in the House Next Door will be shunted across to join the ranks of official Big Brother housemates – including Aisleyne, who now seems to think she’s the most popular human being since the beginning of the universe. Great – just as the number of Big Brother housemates was getting down to a bearable number, we’re treated to five more numbnuts charging around trying to show everyone how talented and funny they are. Fantastic.

But anyway, who’ll win Big Brother? Here’s the second part of our Big Brother betting odds to win – for Jennie, Jonathan, Aisleyne, Michael and Mikey, with betting odds from PaddyPower.com…

Big Brother Betting Odds: New Idiots In, Who’ll Win?

by Stuart Heritage

So now we have two Big Brother houses to keep tabs on, and a brand new set of five Big Brother housemates to worry about. And if you thought the original lot were bad, you’re in for a treat.

Despite having been in their new homes for a couple of days, the new Big Brother housemates have all been assigned their own set of Big Brother betting odds. Because, despite what Aisleyne was told, it looks very much like all five of the new housemates will be entering the real Big Brother house before too long. And because of this, you lucky cats and dogs have got the chance to bet on them to win Big Brother. Yes, even the silent Scouse girl.

With that wonderful piece of news in mind, here’s the first part of this week’s Big Brother betting odds to win, for Susie, Lea, Richard, Imogen and Jayne, with betting odds coming from PaddyPower.com…

Big Brother Betting Odds: Aisleyne Next Door Tonight?

by Stuart Heritage

Good old Big Brother. After last week’s rubbish majorette task, which took a fractured house and massaged it better, this week the Big Brother housemates have been writing about why they don’t like each other.

That’s brilliant, and it’s already caused a bit of a fracas between Lea and Aisleyne, but that isn’t the biggest news about Big Brother today. Later on tonight, either Susie or Aisleyne will be moved into a special house next door to the regular Big Brother house that’s super, ultra, mega top secret to all the current Big Brother housemates. All the Big Brother housemates that didn’t hear a noisy carpenter shrieking all about it, anyway. But who’s going into the house next door to the Big Brother house? We don’t know, but the Big Brother betting odds sure do.

So here are the Big Brother betting odds for tonight’s big move for Susie and Aisleyne, with betting odds from PaddyPower.com…
