Strictly: Bobby and Dianne announced in the dance-off
Bobby Brazier could be heading for defeat on Strictly Come Dancing after being in the bottom two last weekend as the latest betting odds predict he will face the dance off again on Sunday (November 26).
The EastEnders actor, 20, and professional dance partner Dianne Buswell, 34, were early favourites to win the BBC One competition.
But during last week’s Blackpool special, Bobby and Dianne failed to secure enough scores from the judges and votes from the public to save them from being in the bottom two.
Luckily, the duo were saved by the judges Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Anton Du Beke, and Motsi Mabuse, meaning Angela Rippon, 79, and Kai Widdrington, 28, were sent home instead.
There are now fresh fears Bobby will fail to win over the judges and viewers again this weekend and will face the dreaded dance-off for a second time.

For Saturday’s live show (November 25), Bobby and Dianne will do a Couple’s Choice to This Woman’s Work by Maxwell, with the actor hinting he’ll pay tribute to his late mum Jade Goody.
Speaking on behalf of Betfair Casino, body language expert Darren Stanton has analysed how strong the Strictly Come Dancing performances were at Blackpool, revealing Bobby Brazier felt “distraught” as he and “overwhelmed” Dianne Buswell “felt the pressure” in the dance-off.
He added that as we saw Dianne crying and hanging onto Bobby, the couple knew they didn’t perform “to their full potential”.
Darren said: “Bobby and Dianne also slipped behind this week. They’re definitely feeling the pressure.

“This week has been very telling for a lot of the couples and could be make or break for them going forward. Bobby often pulls off some amazing moves and takes a lot of risks in his routines.
“It will have been a shock for him to be in a bad position this week, including being in the dance off. He displayed a lot of disappointment in his eyes and body language when engaging with Dianne.”
The body language expert added: “They knew they didn’t perform to their full potential, but they were definitely relieved to be saved by the judges.
“When Dianne was crying, it was genuine, she was very overcome with emotion. It’s clear she was overwhelmed and needed support from Bobby.”
According to Betfair, former Coronation Street star Ellie Leach is currently favourite to win Strictly Come Dancing 2023 with odds of 1/4.
Casualty and Ex-EastEnders actor Nigel Harman is in second place with odds of 13/2, while Layton Williams comes in as third favourite with odds of 15/2.
Bobby Brazier is the fourth favourite at 14/1 just ahead of former tennis pro Annabel Croft and TV star Angela Scanlon who are both sitting with at 22/1 to lift the Glitterball trophy.
Strictly Come Dancing currently airs every Saturday and Sunday evening on BBC One.
