The X Factor twins John and Edward are not expected to disappear
PICTURE: PRJedward 2-1 to bounce back with 2010 chart hit
TUNELESS The X Factor twins John and Edward were loved and loathed in equal measure by the punting and viewing public, with Hills reporting turnover up 300 per cent on the back of the attendant publicity.
But Hills are clearly not expecting them to disappear from the limelight for long following Sunday night's departure following a sing-off with Olly Murs.
Hills are just 2-1 that they have a No. 1 single next year and go 25-1 that they top the charts that Christmas.
While the firm also report a request for a wager at 100-1 that they replace Katie Price/Jordan in the I'm A Celebrity jungle straight away.
Although this maybe wishful thinking on Hills' part after it was confirmed on Monday morning that she had walked out after being demanded to a seventh-straight Bushtucker Trial by the public.
Spokesman Rupert Adams said: "Our original price of 7-1 was heavily-backed and the price was down to evens just before she went. Our early estimates are that this has cost us a five figure sum, we are absolutely gutted."
Hills offer 25-1 that she reneges on her decision and 25-1 that ex-husband Peter Andre replaces her (in what would then be a second stint in Australia for him too).
Celebrity chef Gino D'Acampo, now 7-2 second-favourite for the crown carried off last year by Joe Swash behind George Hamilton, is one of three up for eviction on Monday night so there could well to be plenty more upheaval in the betting markets to come.
Back in The X Factor, Joe McElderry is now no bigger than 7-4 with Betfred to follow in the immediate footsteps of Leona Lloyd and Alexandra Burke.
Stacey Soloman is a general 5-2, Murs is a standout 10-3 with Boylesports, Danyl Johnson is 13-2 and Lloyd Daniels is the 40-1 rag. Daniels is no bigger than 8-11 for the boot next.
