After a dramatic week in the ballroom, the Strictly Come Dancing odds have shifted again. Bookies have ‘named’ the favourite - and there has been a fresh twist in the race.
BBC’s iconic dancing competition is in its 23rd series and it will be the last with Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly. It has reached the semi-final stage, which will take place this weekend.
One of the four stars - and their professional dance partner - will lift The Glitterball Trophy later this month. But who will it be?
Oddschecker has updated its odds following the shock elimination this weekend. It looks set to be a close fought battle between two of the series 23 celebrities.
Remind yourself who was eliminated in the dance-off this weekend in one of the biggest surprises of the season. Plus see the full order of exits so far.
