Josie and John James are the bookmakers' favourites to win Big Brother 11.

The duo, who are involved in an on-off flirtation in the house, still have the shortest odds with Paddy Power to take home the final series crown.

Bristol sales rep Josie can currently be backed by punters at 5/2, while Australian John James's odds have been cut to 10/3.

Ben (5/1), Corin (6/1), Andrew (7/1) and Steve (10/1) are all still getting plenty of support, but new entrants Rachel (25/1) and Keeley (50/1) are considered longshots. Minister Dave is also unfancied with long odds of 33/1.

This makes me feel a little bit sick inside. I hope Ben and Corin take over!

The sh1t is going to hit the fan with those two soon, who ever comes out looking better for it will storm into the lead and leave the other for dust!

I like John, but I don't feel he is going to win. There's still time for all this to change, who knows what's going to happen in the 7 days.

opinions can change dramatically over night in there so I think it's too early to predict as well

If Crab Eyes reaches the final then mindless teenage girls will multiple vote for him.

Josie has sat pretty on top for a while now, shes actually drifted a bit but still in lead, John James has been lurking around 4th but the tears for Caoimhe I suspect pushed him to 2nd.

And I think youre right Niamh about 1 of them about to look really good whereas the other recieve a backlash. Think it could be starting now with Josie.

If that happens, the best I can wish those teenage girls is that they end up with a boyfriend just like John James.

Absolutely, I never chase up the betting odds on BB because like you say, each day can change some one's opinion/thoughts on a housemate.

Josie's and JJ's votes could split though.. if they are too much like "a duo".

well you know how quickly opinions can change so it's all hinging on how JJ handles Josies confession that she fancies him, he's on very shakey ground here and I'm sure you can appreciate that even though I know you're not a fan of his and he knows that himself. If he carries on as normal he'll be accused of leading her on, If he backs off he'll make her feel awkward and uncomfortable and embarrassed that she's been rejected. In all honesty he's stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Of course they are, there useually wrong.

I can see either ben, corin, mario or andrew winning. Its useually the ones in the middle who end up winning.

I think if corin or mario go, their fans will support the other as them two seem to get on so I would watch out for corin and mario as favourites

JJ'S and Mario's are shortening a bit.. Josie and Corin drifting a bit.

EDIT - Yes they are silly.

It might depend all on John James' actions on who comes out better. If he carries on leading her on (which I think hes doing), I think people will see through this and sympathise with Josie as her feelings are bound to get stronger towards him. If he admits he doesnt fancy her, and Josie takes it bad and gets a bit bitchy with him like she did with Caoimhe then they will sympathise with John James.

I think Andrew will grab 5th place, and it will be a battle between Josie, John James, Ben, Corin and Mario - with 1 of them being evicted just before the final.

What was Freddy and Sofie's odds at this time last year!?

The bookies are doing this so they dont loose too much in the last week!
That's when all the money goes on the clear winner!
So they pre-empt the payout by accumulating the cash on these 'accidents waiting to happen' while they are still pretty popular!!

My friends a bookie...and he's told me this!!

Besides...i'll stick to my prediction that Ratboy will leave before the end!....His insecurity about confidence in his gameplan will see to that!
And he'll take the bristolian down with him!!

Young St. Andrew is playing the best game just now!!
I'd have a shilling on him if I were you!!

Yeah.. although Andrew could be evicted a few days before the final.. with Dave? It depends who is up for eviction next weekn though. etc.. I hope another newbie goes in!!

I really dislike John James; it absolutely baffles me how he's gotten this far. I don't mind Josie; but I feel as though Big Brother's forcing her on us as a winner. I really want Corin or Ben to win.

Mario is desperate to get his hands on that cheque, he will be gutted if his plan hasn't worked;):p:D.
