Shayne Ward faces Strictly Come Dancing elimination as Blackpool Week looms

Shayne Ward at Risk

Shayne Ward is at risk of being axed from Strictly Come Dancing this weekend, as bookmakers predict his elimination. The former Coronation Street star and his partner Nancy Xu are set to perform a Rumba to Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper.

Blackpool Week on the Horizon

With Blackpool Week just around the corner, the pressure is on for the remaining Strictly stars to secure their spot in the iconic Blackpool Tower ballroom. Bookies have slashed Shayne Ward's odds to 10/11 to be voted off the show next.

Pete Wicks' Journey

Despite being considered one of the weaker dancers, Pete Wicks has been tipped to make it through to Blackpool Week. The Towie alum and his partner Jowita Przystał will be performing their Couple's Choice to The Best by Nicotine Dolls.

Ola Jordan's Perspective

Former Strictly pro Ola Jordan named Pete as the "worst one" in the competition but acknowledged his popularity with the audience. She mentioned that Pete is on "borrowed time" but continues to receive enough votes to stay in the competition.
