Bobby Brazier has made it all the way to the Strictly Come Dancing finals with the help of his professional dancing partner, Dianne Buswell.
For the last few months, the 20 year old EastEnders actor has won the hearts of the Strictly judges and the nation, thanks to his top notch dancing skills, bubbly personality and cheeky smile.
However, the race to the final isn't over yet, as he's set to take to the dance floor again tonight to prove to Shirley Ballas, Anton Du Beke, Motsi Mabuse, and Craig Revel Horwood, plus everyone voting at home, that he deserves to take home the iconic Strictly Come Dancing glitter ball.
Bobby's competition tonight comes in the form of soap rival and Coronation Street star Ellie Leach, who is dancing with Vito Coppola, and Bad Education actor and West End performer Layton Williams, who was paired with Nikita Kuzmin.
Despite making it all the way to the finals and beating the 12 other celebs who have since been eliminated (or had to withdraw), Bobby has been dealt a devastating blow just hours before the big night. It comes as he and Layton have seen their odds of winning the trophy take a huge hit, whereas Ellie's have been slashed to just 1/12.
According to the bookies dealing with the figures, Ellie's odds have set a new record for the most likely winner in the show's history.
But while Ellie seems destined to win in the betting world, Bobby's odds have moved to an unsettling 18/1. Layton, on the other hand, is now 9/1 in the betting.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: "Anything other than an Ellie win will go down as a monumental upset – arguably the biggest in Strictly history."
"Punters are dead set on the Corrie star going all the way, with Layton and Bobby merely making up the numbers in this year's finale," he added.
Right now, it's still up in the air as to whose name will be engraved on the glitter ball trophy, which means despite the odds, Bobby may still be able to dance himself to victory.
Over the course of the show, he's been in the bottom two twice, but has still managed to achieve some great scores. From topping the leaderboard in week two for his Charleston, to smashing week eight with his American Smooth, whatever the outcome, Bobby has proved himself as a great dancer.
