Jedward To Have Eurovision Success?
William Hill have cut the odds on the British entry winning the Eurovision Song Contest to 25/1 after a flurry of bets following reports that John and Edward could be in the running to represent the UK.
The UK has dropped from 33/1 to 25/1 with the bookie after reports that the BBC had approached Jedward to appear on “Your Country Needs You” - the programme that decides the UK entrant.
"The rumours are that the BBC are in negotiations with Jedward to get them to take part in the programme that decides the UK entrant," said Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.
"We thought this would put off punters but amazingly we have taken a whole load of bets on the UK winning. That said we are still a shorter price for the UK to get nil point than we are for the UK to win it."
Hills are however shorter price that the UK will end up with “Nil Point”, with the big fat zero available at 16/1.
Jedward are also priced up at 3/1 that their debut single Under Pressure (Ice Ice Baby) reaches number one in the UK singles chart this Sunday.
