This week on Strictly Come Dancing Tom and Camilla are dancing both a waltz and a samba. The programme starts at 6-05pm this evening with everyone welcome to come and watch it on the big screen at the Sycamore Inn (along with a BBC camera crew).
The phone lines are open from approximately 7-35pm to 9pm. Tom, although the most consistent scorer, has not matched some of the others’ highs. However are his hopes for a 10 this week threatened by the flu?
The betting is close between Tom and Austin as favourite to win the series, but at present Tom might just have the edge at around 6 or 7 to 4. In the Ashbourne News Telegraph poll he continues to be the favourite with nearly 60% wanting him to win (Lisa and Rachael are joint second with just over 14% each.).
Here is our regular round up of his media week:

That Daily Telegraph feature (“Strictly Come Dancing lesson is hard work”) is well worth a click, by the way – their reporter takes a full and rigourous dance class with Tom and Camilla, and it makes for an interesting and entertaining read.
