Adam Thomas emerges as Strictly favourite as competition heats up
Earlier this week, Adam was tipped to take home the Strictly trophy when the competition ends. Although EastEnders star Bobby Brazier is currently favourite to win, Adam may also be one to watch.
“When having a flutter on this year’s show, looking at the historical data of previous winners is worth considering, despite the bookmaker’s prediction. EastEnders star Bobby Brazier is the current favourite at 7/2, but after last year’s Supercomputer success, punters may want to look toward actor Adam Thomas at 26/1 – that’s very good value,” a spokesperson for online casino Mybettingsites.co.uk said.
The Strictly results show airs tonight from 7.15pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
