Bookies announce favourite to be eliminated from DOI tonight

One contestant is odds-on to be shown the exit

Now that we’re at the quarter-final stage of Dancing On Ice, we’re left with the the elite skaters.

James Jordan, Melody Thornton, Brian McFadden, Saara Alto and Wes Nelson.

They’ve all impressed us with their agility on the frozen stuff, and all of them deserve a place on tonight’s show.

However, someone will have to leave the fold after this evening’s drama, and the bookies have announced who they think it’ll be.

According to Ladbrokes, former Westlife singer Brian McFadden, 38, and his skating partner Alex Murphy are the most likely to be shown the door tonight, while the other two men left in the show have the least chance of leaving.

A spokesman for the bookie, Alex Apati, told the Express: “While James and Wes are safe as houses, it looks as though Brian will be sent packing this weekend.”

The Irishman’s odds of being booted out currently stand at 4/6, making him the hot favourite.

He’s followed by former X-Factor star Saara (3/1) and former Pussycat Doll Melody (4/1).

Next up is James Jordan (16/1), who’s made the transition from the Strictly dancefloor to the DOI skating rink with ease.

Former Love Islander Wes Nelson is 33/1 to leave the show – this despite him falling onto the ice while rehearsing for tonight’s show.

As if it wasn’t bad enough being ranked favourite to be booted off tonight’s show, Brian McFadden has also received a putdown from his ex-wife Kerry Katona.

In her column for new! magazine, the former Atomic Kitten star said: “He can be a right [expletive] head, that ex-husband of mine.

“Brian went on Loose Women and said that marriage was ‘disposable’ and ‘just a party’.

“He has a girlfriend and has to be respectful, but it was a weird thing to say considering he was married to me.”
