Strictly Come Dancing's Jamie Borthwick 'to miss' final as star dealt blow
Strictly Come Dancing's Jamie Borthwick, paired with Michelle Tsiakkas, has been faced with a devastating setback as the series climax looms. With the weekly culling of celebrities paving the path to the final, speculation mounts over who will clinch the Glitterball Trophy in 2024.
Bookies have been updating their forecasts on the potential victor of this year's competition. Chris McCausland, Sarah Hadland, and Tasha Ghouri are pegged as the trio likely to jive into the finals.
Yet EastEnders' Jamie, previously favoured to triumph, might not even make the final. Currently, Chris is leading with odds of 1/5, Sarah trails closely at 1/3, Tasha twirls in at 4/5, while Jamie lags with less favourable odds of 6/4.
Mike Reading from Betway weighed in: "The latest odds to reach this year's Strictly final make Chris McCausland and Sarah Hadland the strong frontrunners to dance their way into the last three.
"Tasha Ghouri is next in line in the betting, priced up at 4/5 to secure a final spot, but Jamie Borthwick isn't far behind, and we've shortened his odds to 6/4 to make it all the way to the last weekend of the series," reports Wales Online.

The contest intensifies this weekend as celebrities gear up to grace Blackpool Tower Ballroom, although one duo will be waltzing out of the competition.
Following a dicey dance-off performance last Sunday, hints suggest that opera singer Wynne Evans along with dance pro Katya Jones may face eviction next, as per the latest conjectures from bookmakers.

"Wynne is the odds-on favourite to go this weekend, but he may find a lifeline in Pete Wicks, who comes next in the elimination odds. Pete will need to dazzle the judges with his Cha Cha to I'm Too Sexy by Right Said Fred if he wants to stay in the competition!"

Discussing potential winners, Mike continued: "Meanwhile, Chris McCausland and his pro partner Dianne Buswell stole hearts last Saturday with a moving Couple's Choice routine. With that performance, Chris solidified his position as the odds-on favourite to take home the Glitterball Trophy.
"However, Miranda star Sarah Hadland isn't out of the running just yetshe's got strong support from punters and will be hoping to close the gap on Chris with her Couple's Choice routine to Kylie Minogue's Padam Padam this week."
Strictly Come Dancing airs on Saturday at 6.45pm on BBC Two.
