Strictly Come Dancing contestant Jaime Winstone is the favourite to be the next celebrity eliminated from the competition, according to bookmakers Coral, who price her at 11-10 to leave the show.
The actress was forced to withdraw from week seven of the BBC programme after sustaining a torn abdominal muscle, but she is scheduled to return to the dancefloor today (November 14).
Return to the Ballroom
Taking to Instagram this week, Winstone revealed that she and her professional partner Carlos were "so happy to be back in the rehearsal room" and thanked fans "for the most amazing show of love and support during this scary unknowing time".
Explaining her absence from week seven, Winstone previously stated: "I am absolutely devastated not to be dancing this weekend due to a torn abdominal muscle."
She added: "I am in considerable pain, and my doctors have advised complete rest to give my body the best possible chance to heal. As frustrating as it is, I have to put my health first and follow their advice to step away from dancing this week."
Betting Odds and Competition
In a video posted on Tuesday, Winstone confirmed her comeback to the dancefloor, saying: "Hey guys! We are back. It's been a hard week and it's been very frustrating not being able to dance and join everyone else in the ballroom. I wanted to let you know that we are intending to dance."
She went on to say: "We have been given the all-clear under certain rules by the doctors. We've just done our wonderful Charleston with amazing choreographers and Carlos."
According to Coral, Graeme Hall is priced at 5-2 to exit the show, followed by John Nellis at 5-1, Will Best at 6-1, and Cach Mercer with odds of 9-1. In the outright market for the Glitterball Trophy, Lacey Turner is odds-on at 4-5 to win Strictly.
Coral's John Hill said: "Jamie Winstone is dancing on thin ice this weekend, with Coral making her the 11-10 favourite to be the next celebrity to leave the Strictly ballroom."
He added: "The pressure is firmly on Jamie, but with Graeme Hall and John Nellis also featuring prominently in the betting, the race to avoid the dreaded dance-off could go right down to the wire."
Strictly Come Dancing continues on Saturday and Sunday evenings on BBC One and iPlayer.
