Bookies offer King's Speech Bingo around what the King will talk about in this year's speech
The King's Speech will likely be the most watched show on UK TV on Christmas Day this year and bookmakers are now offering odds on what the King will discuss.
Last year was King Charles' first Christmas Speech following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth, and in last year's speech he paid tribute to the late Queen.
This year it's unclear what he will discuss in his message and what the main words mentioned will be but it's Ukraine that leads the way in the King Charles Speech bingo odds.
With the war still raging on for more than 650 days, King Charles could use part of his speech to talk about the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
| To be mentioned in King's Christmas Speech | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Ukraine | 4/6 | 60.0% |
| Tolerance | 3/1 | 25.0% |
| Vladimir Putin | 7/2 | 22.2% |
| America/USA | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Joe Biden | 9/2 | 18.2% |
What the expert says...
Odds also given around the colour tie that the King will wear in his Christmas Day speech
Other popular betting markets around King Charles Christmas Speech include what colour tie he will wear to address the nation on Christmas Day.
Last year's speech saw the King wear blue and it's likely that it'll be the same again this year with blue closely associated with the Royal Family.
Queen Elizabeth's favourite colour was blue too so Charles may have been paying respects to his late mother with a nod to the colour in his speech.
| What colour tie will the King wear in his Christmas Speech? | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Blue | 6/4 | 40.0% |
| Green | 7/2 | 22.2% |
| Red | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Yellow | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Orange | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Further Royal Family specials include odds of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to denounce new book
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are in the news once more this week following the release of new book 'Endgame' from royal journalist Omid Scobie.
The book discusses the race row between Prince Harry and Meghan and other members of the Royal Family with the Dutch translation of the book revealing which members supposedly made racist comments.
Bookies are offering odds of 6/4 that Harry and Meghan will publicly denounce the book at some point but as of yet they have not done so.
