Who will win Strictly Come Dancing 2019 and who'll leave first? Latest Strictly odds

Strictly Come Dancing 2019 will be back on screens this September, with a whole list of new stars taking to the BBC One ballroom competition.

From footballer Alex Scott, to actress Catherine Tyldesley and even TV presenting legend Anneka Rice, there's a whole range of celebs on the bill.

Each year there's a divide of the front runners, and those who can't seem to shake off their two left feet - while there's also always a viewer favourite or two.

But from the long list of names taking part this year, which of them will be the next champion and who won't get past the first week? Here's the latest Paddy Power odds ahead of the launch...

Who will be the Strictly Come Dancing 2019 winner?

According to bookmakers Paddy Power, former footballer Alex Scott is the current favourite to win the series this year.

She's followed by Made in Chelsea star Jamie Laing and ex Coronation Street actress Catherine Tyldesley.

Sadly for BBC presenter Mike Bushell, he's placed last in the odds list as this series' outsider - but that's not to say he will be first to leave.

Here's the odds list in full, with winners at the top and potential losers at the bottom:

This of course could change when the show starts, and the front runners become more apparent.

For all we know, one of these five could become the show favourite whether for their good dancing or bad dancing.

Strictly Come Dancing returns in September on BBC One.
