Eastenders Actor James Bye is 2/1 to leave Strictly this weekend
Eastenders actor James Bye is joint favourite to be the next celebrity to leave Strictly Come Dancing with bookies making him 2/1 to be eliminated.
Bye has shown steady progress week-by-week on the show but bookmakers feel that he could be in danger of leaving this week.
William Hill make him 2/1 alongside comedian Ellie Taylor to leave the show which this week will celebrate the 100th birthday of the BBC.

With James Bye playing Martin Fowler in Eastenders, it's only right that he dances to the Eastenders theme tune this weekend.
With the show being dedicated to the 100th birthday of the BBC, celebrities will dance to various themes around the channel.
Comedian Ellie Taylor shares favouritism to be the next celebrity to leave the dancing show
Ellie Taylor is another celebrity who has shown good progress week-by-week on the show but bookies expect her to struggle this weekend.
Despite not being in the bottom two in the first four weeks Taylor is 2/1 joint favourite to be eliminated this week.
Taylor will be doing a tango to the Casualty Theme Tune this week to of course celebrate Casualty.
