On Strictly - After the Match Up, Not A Lot Has Changed -2017

[danieldwilliam]

A quick look at my Strictly predictions and how the odds have moved since Saturday's show.

Overall I my opinion hasn't changed much. I still think Burke, Atkinson and Merrygold will lose to King in the final and that Ace, I'm Sorry I Haven't a Calman and Saturday Morning Coles will be the first three to leave.

The big movement in the odds is Richard Coles who has moved in from 40-1 to 25-1. I don't see why. Dianne Buswell is a bit of an unknown. Coles didn't reveal an unexpectedly incendiary hip movement on the night. Perhaps Saint Cajetan has nipped down to the bookies and put his cassock on Coles. It's a Mystery.

A bit of a move in for the Lovely  Debbie McGee. I thought her early career as a ballet dancer with the Iranian National Ballet might show through and it did. She's currently attracting the most betting. Giovannie Pernice is no  Anton du Beke. He was a semi-finalist with Georgia May Foote a few years ago

Brian Conley has moved out from 33-1 to 40-1. He has one of the new dancers and I think the odds reflect that.

I am surprised by the movement in Susan Calman's odds from 50-1 out to 80-1. She's just been paired with Kevin Clifton. She was in tears of joy at being paired with Kevin Clifton. Kevin Clifton has never finised anything other than second in four seasons and Calman is in tears. I reckon that is where the value is this week.

I'm Sorry I Haven't a Calman was 7-2 to be first out before the match up, that's unchanged. Madness

I have set up a shadow betting pool. When I know what I'm actually doing it with I shall post a little bit about it.
