BBC Strictly - Week 4 - Elimination, Who is Next?

Week 4 in the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing competition will see the lady competitors perform for the second time. Casualties so far are ex Eastenders and The Bill actress Gillian Taylforth, who was partnered by Anton Du Beke. Professional dancer, Anton, will probably never win the competition as he is always partnered by, for want of a better word, duffers. He is the Mr Nice Guy the Producers of the show can palm people off on. Harsh, but probably true.

Ahem, getting back on topic, here are the published odds this week on who is thought most likely to be eliminated in Episode 4 of the contest.

Jodie Kidd 6/4
Jessie Wallace 7/4
Lisa Snowdon 9/2
Heather Small 6/1
Cherie Lunghi 14/1
Christine Bleakley 20/1
Rachel Stevens 33/1

There is quite a gap between the first two and the rest of the pack. Unless anyone else has an unmitigated disaster, I can't see the bottom two being any other than Jessie Wallace and Jodie Kidd.

Jodie was in the dreaded dance-off first time out, but survived at the expense of Gillian Taylforth. Her dance-off performance was a lot better which maybe shows she can improve a bit under pressure. It is looking like Jessie Wallace to go out to me unless she can pull something out of the bag to leave Lisa Snowdon vulnerable.

Cherie Lunghi, Christine Bleakley and Rachel Stevens should be extremely safe to stay in.
