However, actor Les Dennis has landed at the bottom of the bookies’ predictions as they have given him odds of 33/1 of winning.

Nikita Kanda follows Leyton and Bobby with odds of 6/1, while Coronation Street’s Ellie Leach and Angela Scanlon have been given odds of 8/1 to win.

Former Love Island star Zara McDermott is close behind with odds of 10/1 with soap actor Adam Thomas being given 16/1.

Paralympian Jody Cundy’s odds are stacked at 20/1, while Angela Rippon, Eddie Kadi and Amanda Abbington are 33/1 outsiders.

Journalist Krishnan Guru-Murthy the biggest outsider with odds of 100/1.

A BonusCodeBets spokesperson shared: “TV legend Les Dennis became the latest name to be added to the star-studded Strictly Come Dancing line-up but the bookies haven’t handed him the best chance of winning by making him 33/1 to go all the way and seal a memorable victory.

“Bobby Brazier is the 4/1 favourite to win with Layton Williams hot on his heels at 5/1.”
