What the expert says..
Angela Rippon is now odds-on to leave after another dance-off appearance
Angela Rippon has shortened into the odds-on favourite at 1/2 to be the next celebrity eliminated on Strictly Come Dancing after another dance-off appearance this weekend.
Rippon's win in the dance-off against Krishnan Guru-Murthy led to plenty of 'fix' claims on social media on Sunday night after judges highlighted mistakes from Rippon in her dance.
The latest betting odds suggest there's a 66% chance that Rippon is the next celebrity to go with the odds putting her clear of anyone else.

Krishnan Guru-Murthy was latest celebrity to be voted off
Krishnan Guru-Murthy was voted out on Strictly Come Dancing this past weekend after finishing at the bottom of the judges leaderboard.
The judges fave Krishnan a total score of 25 out of 40 which made him the only celebrity to not score in the 30s at the weekend and ultimately led to him being in the dance-off.
Craig, Motsi and Anton all voted to save Angela and Kai and head judge Shirley Ballas said that she would have saved Krishnan and his partner Lauren Oakley if she had to vote.
