As is now becoming terrifyingly traditional, it’s time for us to take our second look of the week at the betting odds of the Strictly Come Dancing contestants.
Fans of good dancing are advised to look elsewhere – we dealt with the more competent half of the Strictly Come Dancing groovemachine yesterday, meaning that today we’re left with the donkeys of the group – the dancers who aren’t so hopeless that they’ve already been eliminated from the show, but are nonetheless still pretty pants.
Whetted your appetite enough? Good, here’s part two of our betting odds to win Strictly Come Dancing, with a fat dollop of help from Betfair.com…
Patsy Palmer – A few weeks ago, Patsy Palmer said a bad thing about
the Strictly Come Dancing judges. The nature of the insult has been
lost in the mists of time – perhaps that they were all girly pissbags
and should be ashamed of themselves, who knows? But anyway, Patsy’s
outburst has made it harder for her to win the judges over. She almost
managed it on Saturday, with the judges telling her that "Tonight we
saw Patsy Palmer the actress come onto the floor at last." A
disappointment, as everyone else was expecting Patsy Palmer the dancer.
SCORE – 31 – Current odds – 17
James Martin – James Martin is famously spending all his free time stuffing it into his Strictly Come Dancing partner, and
on Saturday it looked like he’d sexually exhausted himself – during his
Jive he looked more like a rusty robot scarecrow zombie chasing a
toddler off a bouncy castle than a dancer. And he was punished for it,
too: the judges called his routine "flat as a pancake." SCORE – 20 -
Current odds – 50
Bill Turnbull – At heart Bill Turnbull is one of the greatest
dancers the world has ever seen. However, he’s been hampered of late by
a strange illness which is slowly turning him into The Singing
Detective. But does he care? No way – he’s going to throw his head back
and dance like nobody is watching. His arse-grabbing Rumba routine
split the judges this week. He was either "Godzilla," or "producing
work above and beyond the call of duty." SCORE – 17 – Current odds – 95
That’s all the Strictly Come Dancing betting odds for this week, but in the meantime, check out Betfair.com to see the very latest Strictly Come Dancing betting odds for all this season’s contestants. And you’ll even get free stuff when you join up – look…
